  • Who wants to bet if they are guilty?

    I have a tip...PM me and we can talk.

    Three Pakistan cricketers are quizzed by police over alleged involvement in a betting scam, as the man at the centre of the allegations is bailed without charge.

    Three Pakistan cricket players have been questioned by police over claims they were involved in a betting scam, the team manager has said.

    Yawar Saeed said cricket was not "institutionally corrupt" in Pakistan, and the claims were unproven.

    etc.


    Pakistan is as infamous for corruption as Nigeria is for scams. It's amost a joke to say otherwise.
    One day Canada will rule the world, and then we'll all be sorry.

      Sounds like a sucker bet to me.

      I don't follow cricket, how common are "no-balls" normally?

          1 in 200 deliveries if you are English or Australian. 1 in 60 if you are Pakistani.

            Because it's just not cricket.

              Because this bleak and desolate place, bereft of any interesting topics, needs something worthwhile in it. Although fairplay to C0ckney - his thread was good.

                It is also, as Dauphin alluded to, about more than just cricket.

                  Cricket sucks... it's like a dumb version of baseball which sucks as is. And it's even ****ing longer than baseball which is unfathomable! I mean really? Games that last for days?! With lunch breaks?! What is this?!

                    I assume you mean "Because it's not just cricket," my English friend. So what else is it? A possibly BNP-inspired discussion on the corruption of Pakis?

                      So the odds of getting 3 no-balls in one game are pretty low.

                      Sounds like guilty to me.

                          Quite high odds, most games have several hundred deliveries. It's a question of when they occur.

                            The best bit about Test Cricket is that you can play for five days and not get a result. This was specially designed to piss off clueless, impatient American phucktards who insist on weighing in with their utterly pointless opinions on sports which have no interest or relevance to them, and which are absolutely none of their business.

                              Does he think games that last for days without meal breaks would be better?
