"7.5 crore rs." is speaking............ not KP

So hang on a second, Peterson was uncomfortable with the whole thing, and thought the guy was a sleazebag but yet still went on the tour there and played in the T20 matches? I have a lot of respect for how Peterson came back to India to play, but the guy was ho'ing himself out for Stanford if that's how he really feels.

Me too, but it may turn out he came for the IPL $$$ that will follow once they get in the good books of Lalit Modi.

Bump time. Just watched BBC's panorama show on Stanford the 6 Billion Dollar Man. http://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/b00kfrtv/Panorama_The_Six_Billion_Dollar_Man/ I stand truly vindicated. This was all part of the Ponzi scheme to stay in limelight and making the rest of the world think that Stanford was a respectable bank and hence investors would keep flowing in and make up the shortfall of stanfords expenditure. A very classic example of ponzi scheme. Stanford was smoking, not the kind I had first imagined but money.

Stanford has lost the plot whatever happened to his fraud case?

[Don]

He's not in jail actually hes protected by the Govt. for being a drugs informer.

Its a way of avoiding taxes.

In terms on sheer star quality we are only looking at Pietersen, Flintoff and maybe Bravo as genuine Twenty20 Superstars.

:hysterical::hysterical::hysterical: You must certainly be kidding.. I would have agreed if yu had Gayle, Bopara in it

[Don]

check the date of when that was first posted mate. they went for more then 3 million dollars. and despite their bad showing they are superstars. certainly bigger then bopara and a notch above gayle.
