Imran Khan upset over player bans
The former Captain of the Pakistan cricket team, Imran http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Khan-c71319 is disappointed about the recently banned players. He said, "I am genuinely upset over the bans on three key, young and talented players, but once the players were proven guilty a punishment has
to be given for the sake of cricket in general and for the sake of Pakistan cricket in particular."
"I feel sad for Amir, who is probably the best young fast bowler in the world at the moment and had a long way to go," he said. He was very upset about the young Pakistani Pacer Mohammad Amir, as he was often compared to the Pakistani former Captain and
fast bowler Waseem Akram. It will not be easy to compensate this great loss for the Pakistani team.
Khan claimed that these players were really team winners and he is really shocked to have this bad news for the entire Nation. He also feels that the entire nation was humiliated on the spot-fixing case in last year. "It was great humiliation for the people
of http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Pakistan-c755 as the kind of ignominy it brought made people more demoralised than the floods in the country," he said.
On the other side, the International Cricket Council has criticised the suspension leniency. It suggested that the punishment was not enough for spot-fixing as the Pakistan Trio should be banned for life.
ICC Chief Executive http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Haroon-Lorgat-c61719 said, “I am deeply saddened that this case happened in the first place, I acknowledge and commend the decision to deliver lengthy bans to all three players, corruption in our game will never be tolerated and, once again,
I reiterate our zero-tolerance approach.”
The Pakistani Trio will face criminal charges and have been scheduled to appear next month in court in the United Kingdom. To see such talented players succumb to corruption is not only bad for cricket as a whole, but a big embarrassment for Pakistan as
a nation.
The Pakistan former Captain and 1992 World Cup victor is quite saddened about the giant mistake of these great future talents, but also agreed with the ICC suspension.
