No way. Their bowling now would be Bangladesh level with the likes of Dala, Mulder etc... And there's lord phelu too...

 

Even if their batsmen play out of their skins and post 320, poyzz should chase that down easily.

 

Currently @Norman 's feelings for decock

[Bigg Brother]

Nothing wrong in what DeCock did, Fakhar should have completed run rather than looking at other end.

The Fakhar and DeCock .. good combination

Precisely. Lot of ambiguity involved..

So the sole blame should lie on the stupid batsmen who get "tricked"...

Usually there's lot of ambiguity involved, but in this particular situation, their captain did say that it was a clever move by Quinton

[Pollack]

I think it's against the spirit of the game.

Quinton de Kock unlikely to face any sanction for Fakhar Zaman dismissal

ESPNcricinfo understands that match officials did not find the keeper in breach of Law 41.5.1 on fake fielding

Batsmen need to toughen up. They are too pampered by the laws.

To be fair to the batsman here, he hasn't uttered a word and quitely accepted the verdict and moved on, it's the Pakistan fans and media who are crying foul over it.

True.

The rule is stupid.

[sumit quiet]

Omg.. Pakistanis have gone nuts on twitter.. they are cursing de lock like village women ...

[Straight Drive]

Street smart circketer QDK. Whereas Zaman showed how foolish he is.

This pic shows when Kock signalled, no one knew where the throw was coming and he was pointing towards the bowler asking fielder to throw at the bowlers end.

So now all Cricketing rules should be be ignored just because they are against Pakistanis? What if they happen against india? 

what is the rule that was violated and should not be ignored ?

True. It seemed like Kock was asking the fielder to throw at bowlers end as the nonstriker had to cover more distance than the striker looking at the pic I posted above but fielder threw at the striker. Zaman would have easily reached if he hadn't slowed down. Also Kock wasn't even looking to collect the ball. It just happened to be a direct hit.

[Rightarmfast]

I watched it live. The way it happened, looked against the spirit of the game. I dont know whether it breaks a cricketing rule or not, but it just didnt look correct.

[AuxiliA]

The rule change banning 'fake fielding' is stupid to say the least. It creates unnecessary confusion and opens a whole new can of worms.

De Kock acted like The *ock
