Finally something to be happy about.
Will South Africa lose the series 3-0 just like England did when they toured the United Arab Emirates?
I hope so.

How's the chucker bowling ?

I shouldn't think it but I just can't take Pakistan seriously after the three cheats and the ones who must have known still around.

I totally agree mate, I have no interest in watching any game involving Pakistain. There must have been at least another 5 players that knew what was happening or as professional players would have had an idea what there fellow team mates were doing and for what ever reason choose not to speak up.

Having said that, Ali is a cracking batsmen and Aamir was a fantastic talent.

Who threw it all away for a few quick ��'s. doesn't deserve to see set foot on a cricket ground again at any level in my opinion.

Aamir was a big loss for international cricket. Watched him bowl to Shane Watson in a game, he was absolutely clueless! Surprises me that he's actually only a day older than myself, I often have to remind myself that when I hear about the story and think 'what an idiot'. I would have probably had a conflict in me if I was offered money like that and your captain and the bowler you always look up to are also in on it.

That's the thing that people miss. The end of the day he was a kid, plucked from an obscure village, thrown into stardom and then pressured by a your captain to do something stupid. Yes what he did is wrong but for people to get on their high horse and say he should be banned from everything I think is harsh. I would pretty much say that most people would do the same thing. If he said no, he career would have been over anyway due to the stupid politics in Pakistan cricket.

Still should never play cricket again though, regardless of why he did it.

What pads are these?

Had a Net with Amir after he got out.

Got the sense he was very much an innocent kid who got forced/led on/etc into doing what he did. Obviously needs to be punished like everyone who breaks the rules, but I do feel sorry for him.

Asif on the other hand, I've met many times and is a total slimeball. Not a good Muslim either, smoking and drinking beer while he shouts from the boundary rope at his friends.

Think most of the team is still at it, not to forget they lost to zim in a test last month

A very good friend of mine covered the whole trial for one of the national papers, and the one thing that he mentioned many times was that Amir was not as innocent as he led people to believe - he knew exactly what he was doing without being forced.

That's the exact impression I have of both of them. Can't say I have met them but from what they've had to say about themselves that's the conclusion I drew. Real shame for Amir, he was a really class bowler and from memory he could bat a bit too!
