by deciding to amputate the arm the tumor of which was infecting the pakistan cricket and their team... how better it would have been had they raised their hands and own some responsibility in failing to cure it...
the wound that could have been cured by timely intervention, medication and care... they waited for that wound (indiscipline) to develop into a tumor (player power) and in doing so they have send a clear message that they and their system is totally incapable of curing the 'player power' tumor and only way out, they know, is... amputate the arm... to save their skins...
hence they have decided to bar mohammad yousuf and younis khan from playing international games... handed over one year ban to shoaib malik and rana naved and chose to fine shahid afridi, kamran akmal and his younger brother umar akmal... apparantly on disciplinary grounds...
if for a moment we believe what pcb trying hard to feed on to us... even then their case looks very weak... coz if indiscipline was the factor... they should have banned...
kamran akmal... for a year... who openly flaunted team's stance by continuously giving contradictory interviews to oz media about him playing the next game and forcing himself on and above team cause...
umar akmal... for a year... who suddenly developed the back pain after he learned that his elder brother is going to be dropped from the team for the next game... and once he was told in no uncertain terms that he will have to accompany kamran to the flight back home... miraculously his back pain evaporated in thin air...
shahid afridi... for life time... for audaciously biting the ball... thereby disgracing reputation of a captain and the whole pakistan team... and compulsively engaging in team infighting in the past...
and should have fined yousuf, younis, malik and rana... but we all know that's not the case...
that is why they call pcb... the permanently confused board for nothing...
pcb admits its futility...

Well, I guess the bans will be overturned.
See my theory for this brouhaha here:

Although that was just a funny take, I dont think the PCB means it and it will all end in a farce.
Raj I hope so. At least in the case of Yousuf. Something went terribly wrong here.
Wes' last blog:
Yousuf banned from "play for country" o_O
PCB's simply bowls me over! Felt Shoaib Akhtar's genital warts were the last of its candour. But lo and behold!
raj and still ppl say pak cricket is unpredictable... ;-)
