Pak bowlers are oftenly in news for ball tampering. i even saw tape of waquar yonis tampering the ball.
but here none of the camera shoot any player with this thing. if I had Haq i would defenitly walked from the field with my players for wrong decision its not matter of 5 runs its the issue of respect.

ok!!!
If the ball was tampered, then why wasn't that scratch to the media??? When they were changing the ball, that's all what we saw, and it was clear that it wasn't tampered. plus there are 26 cameras in the stadium, watching every player and every move of them!!! Why any of the cameras didn't catch any player doing anything to the ball!!??
He might have gone by the "rules" but the way he went, was wrong. He insulted a team, and the nation. When a person hasn't done tampering then who is he to say with so much confidence that the ball is tampered?? It's a 55 overs old ball!!! What do you expect???
Agar, ball has to be changed, it is the fielding team's captain who asks for a change not the batsmen or the umpire. He didn't gave any warning, or any indication that ball is been changed, he just changed it. Inzi himself went to him and asks what is going on.
Hair as been racists for a very long time. And it is high time he is kicked out, he can take his pride and do umpiring in a rugby match. There are many good and just umpires in ICC.
The final decision is in ICC's hand, and by their statements and all, I don't think they will make Hair the culprit. They will obviously side him!!!
But as for Inzi, he is a strong man, and he took the very right step!!!!
Vijay here, talks about umpires being in the Pre independence era. What do u exactly mean by this? Do u think we should alter the rules of the game as and when the players want it? Do we not have a set of rules for every game?
Sree, I didnt mean "all umpires" except few whose certain decisions have been quite controversial. By Pre-Independence era I meant to highlight the injustice that was done on the Indians and Pakistanis under the British Raj and they could have got away with it. Today its different ball game altogether. BCCI is the richest cricket board in the world.
Do u think we should alter the rules of the game as and when the players want it?
Did I say that ? Infact I also said that the way they protested it was not appropriate even though the reason of protest was valid. But rules are not something which is fixed always. There have been regular changes in the Cricket rule book from time to time to adjust with modern times and to fill up the lacunas of the game and to take advantage of the available technological aid to ensure fair play.
Well wait for Friday and lets see what the ICC enquiry has to say about it.
Cheers,
Vijay

Cricket has some rules and I feel if those are not followed or implemented by the umpires properly then players might get a bit leeway with the umpires.
Yes!! Cricket has some rules.
As per the ICC's rulebook, Law 5 governing Test-Playing Conditions reads, in relevant part, thus: "The umpires shall retain possession of the match balls throughout the duration of the match when play is not actually taking place. During play umpires shall periodically and irregularly inspect the condition of the ball and shall retain possession of it at the fall of a wicket, a drinks interval, at the end of every over, or any other disruption in play." (This rule was posted in another website. I apologize for not providing the link as I don't remember it now.)
Do umpires do that? If they do then did they ever find any of these accused tampering or shining the ball?
