the man is so fat, he never goes for singles and 2's becasue he knows he'll never make the distance between the wickets, without going in to caridac arrest. its rather sad if u ask me.

scary scary stuff:
Cricket Chiefs Had No Knowledge of Alleged Al-Qaeda Ashes Plot

By Dan Baynes

Oct. 9 (Bloomberg) -- Australian cricket and government officials said they had no knowledge of an alleged terrorist plot targeting the Australian and English teams during last year's Ashes series.

Al-Qaeda planned to kill the players using sarin nerve gas, the Sunday Times reported, citing a friend of one of the terrorists who bombed London's public transport system on July 7, 2005, in an attack that killed 52 people.

Australian team management worked closely with security officials and U.K. police after the bombings, and had not heard any reports that the teams were targeted, Cricket Australia said today. The England and Wales Cricket Board advised its Australian counterpart overnight that it also had no knowledge of the claim.

``At no stage then or since was there any specific issue relating to the Australian or England teams raised with us,'' Cricket Australia Chief Executive Officer James Sutherland said in a statement.

Mohammad Sidique Khan and Shehzad Tanweer, who bombed the London Underground, were allegedly ordered to get jobs as stewards at Edgbaston cricket ground in Birmingham and spray lethal sarin gas inside the teams' locker rooms, the Times said.

The friend, whose real name was not published, said the plot may have been canceled, and the Tube bombings carried out instead, because Tanweer, 22, was a cricket fan.

Australian Attorney-General Philip Ruddock said police and intelligence officials are investigating the claims.

``Ultimately I would receive information in relation into whatever they obtain from him,'' Ruddock said in an interview with the Australian Broadcasting Corp. ``But at this stage I'm not aware of any other information known to our authorities.''

The top-ranked Australian team, which is in India to contest the Champions Trophy, said it had confidence in the security precautions taken by Cricket Australia and the Australian Cricketers' Association on the players' behalf.

``With regards to this report, we were very comfortable with the security arrangements that were in place during the recent Ashes tour and we continue to trust the security information provided to us by Cricket Australia and the ACA,'' team captain Ricky Ponting said in a statement.

Finally the real champions trophy starts tomorrow. So how do you guys fancy to win it??

I think SA and Pakistan have a good chance.

Our batting lineup looks superb:

1.Smith
2.Dippenaar
3.Gibbs
4.De Villiers
5.Kallis
6.Boucher
7.Kemp
8.Pollock
9.Hall
10.Nel/Pieterson
11.Ntini

The question mark will be the lack of a quality spinner and maybe lack of quality bowlers but I suspect the pitches for this tournament like for most odi's to be flat so the batsmen should dominate so I am confident in the boys ability.

ICC Champions Trophy
India: 126-6 ( 29.3 overs )
England: 125 ( 37.0 overs )
India beat England by 4 wickets


Wow great bowling from India or rather pathetic batting display from England :rolleyes: Now I think England have to beat both Australia and the West Indies to make it through their group, which will surely not happen.

Cricket: Akhtar, Asif recalled due to positive drugs tests


KARACHI - Pakistan are sending home fast bowlers Shoaib Akhtar and Mohammad Asif from the Champions Trophy cricket tournament in India after the pair tested positive for the banned steroid nandrolone.

Both cricketers face bans of up to two years if a second test confirms the positive result.

"They have tested positive for using nandrolone, which is a performance enhancing anabolic steroid," Saleem Altaf, director of cricket operations of the Pakistan Cricket Board, said today.

Altaf said both players had returned positive results for nandrolone in tests conducted on 25 players before the Champions Trophy in a World Anti-Doping Agency-accredited laboratory in Malaysia.

"We have asked for a second test (B sample). But for the moment they have been suspended and are being recalled from India," he said.

Altaf made it clear that since the tests were conducted internally and not in an International Cricket Council (ICC) tournament, the two players would appear before a PCB disciplinary committee.

"Under the ICC anti-doping rules the punishment for a first violation is two years. We don't have our own rules on such matters and might follow the ICC regulations," he added.

The PCB has also asked the ICC to allow two replacements for the disgraced players.

"It is a voluntary withdrawal of the players. So we can ask for replacements," Altaf said.

The team management in India has asked for a pacer and spinner and Altaf said Mohammad Sami, Shahid Nazir and Yasir Arafat were being discussed as possible replacements.

Pakistan cricket is still reeling from a ball-tampering fiasco which caused the team to forfeit the recent fourth test against England at The Oval, controversy over the captaincy and the resignation of board chairman Shaharyar Khan.

The Champions Trophy involves all the test-playing nations and is second only to the World Cup in importance

The Pakistan team skipped their scheduled morning training session in Jaipur following the news.

Skipper Younis Khan and coach Bob Woolmer were expected to address a news conference later on Monday, the eve of their opening Group B tie against Sri Lanka.

You can laugh pablito, we deserved to laughed at. Akthar, I am not surpirsed, he lives in controversy and has done shit for the team. Its M.asif I am more worried about. He had such a good potential. I think both of them will be banned for a year and miss the WC. They would have to come with a much better excuse than pulling a Warne, and blaming it on their moms, if they want to keep on playing cricket.
But still admist all the controversy we are having we still managed to beat Srilanka. Great display by Razzaq.!!
And Wooohoo Windies beat Australia by 10 runs yesterday.

I was really shocked at this result, especially after that defeat from Sri Lanka. Still it was nice to see the West Indies beating Australia and now it puts even more pressure on the match between Eng and Aus on Saturday.

Martyn may have played a good innings, but what a superb role Hussey played:star:

I dont think there is anybody in the game who can come in and so easily change the style of his play, its as if he changes from aggressive to defensive in jsut the flick of a switch.

I remember against the Proteas when we were in trouble and he came in pretty low down the order. He let everyball remotely off the stumps straight through to the keeper, fighting all urges at playing at them.

Then the innings went down and Australia made a bit mroe runs and then he opened up and oh my..he blitzed it, doing exactly the oppisote he wsa doing at the start of the innings.

This is why at the moment he is ICC's voted best ODI batter, but for me..his batting in both forms and his fielding make him the best overall.

On other positive notes
  • Its great to see Mitch picking up some wickets
  • Also top stuff by Watson, slowly fulfilling Australia's 'all-rounder' role. He justs needs to do it in tests now which im sure he will.
  • Thanks to the help of Troy Cooley, Watson is now bowling at speeds of almost 140km'h. Just last year during Australia VS ICC xi he was slow(120ish) and not having any movement.

And how do we know that the 2 pakistani's weren't doing the same?? Both were injured both could have been taking something to recover faster.

Lets not judge till we have all the facts.;)

I never mentioned this about the other 2 blokes or made any assumptions regarding them. I wish them the best.
