Team killed Woolmer, says Imran March 19, 2007 10:38am Article from: NEWS.com.au Font size: + - Send this article: Print Email THE Pakistan cricket team is responsible for the death of coach Bob Woolmer, politician and former team captain Imran Khan says. ?Whatever the general public in Pakistan says, the fact is that Bob was not responsible for Pakistan?s defeat or any other loss that the team has faced because the coach?s job is simply to teach and instruct," said Khan, according to the Daily News and Analysis (DNA) website. After the team's loss to Ireland, a huge crowd had gathered in front of Pakistani captain Inzamam ul-Haq?s Multan residence and chanted slogans of "Death to Woolmer, Death to Inzamam". "The performance of the Pakistan team is a sheer responsibility of the captain and no one but Inzamam is responsible for the exit of the team from the World Cup. And the poor performance of the Pakistani team is the only cause of Woolmer?s cardiac arrest," Khan said. Former cricket captain Asif Iqbal said Woolmer's conscience, a great aspect of his character, became the reason for his death. ?Bob had been under intense criticism ever since he had been appointed as the national coach, especially by the former coaches of the team. But the loss to Ireland was too extreme a shock for him to recover from,? he said. According to former opener Saeed Anwar, Woolmer was a very sensitive person and his team?s loss caused his death, the DNA website reported. ?It is very sad that everyone found his unconscious body in the hotel room when it was too late.?

Re: Team killed Woolmer, says Imran What an irresponsbile statement to make? Imran Khan's a senile old man. How can he blame the team and the captain? Already there are people wanting the team arrested and all sorts of reaction from the stupid fans. A statement from someone this influential is certainly not good and responsible. I'm quite happy India doesn't breed such mad men.

Has the post-mortem report come? Or Khan is merely guessing?

Re: Team killed Woolmer, says Imran Imran Khan talks more crap than anyone. He once said that Kashmir should be settled over a match between India and Pakistan. The guy is a complete nutter when it comes to making comments.
