For few dollars more



It’s been yet another sad day for Pakistan Cricket. Couple of months back 3of there players were caught in Spot - fixing scandal. It was rigged operations and after seeing tapes even a kid would have agreed there involvement.

There was a judicial inquiry set up against the tainted players, Salman Butt, Mohammad Asif and Mohammad Aamer. ICC tribunal last evening gave out the verdict, 10years 7years and 5years ban for guilty players respectively.

I personally felt sad for Mohammad Aamer, remaining two should have been put on life – ban.

This kid is just 18, was termed as best prospect for Pakistan cricket and had he been around, world could have witnessed yet another “sultan of swing” the great Wasim Akaram in making.

No doubt it was his fault but it could had been avoided if he was in shadow of honest player who put there “winning for nation” habit – before personal milestones and Money. (to site few are Imran Khan, R Dravid, VVS Lakshman, Sachin Tendulkar)

Lot of things change in 5years duration, it’s surely an end for the kid. What’s worst he lands up in no mans land, won’t even able to play county cricket in England.

Aamer will never be rich again!
