rainy day Posted August 1, 2009 Share Posted August 1, 2009 Nope common practice in International cricket and in particular county cricket, that's where Pakistani bowlers first picked up ball tampering. Picking the seam with your nails was seen as a acceptable part of cricket. Link to comment

kabira Posted August 1, 2009 Share Posted August 1, 2009 ^hahaah he is writing it happeninig in English Circuit. Did it happen in international circuit regularly? Only Imran, Sarfaraz, Wasim, Waqar Shoiab have been doing it on international circuit. Do you knwo any other bowler found guilty???? Link to comment
rainy day Posted August 1, 2009 Share Posted August 1, 2009 ^^It says right there that in 1991 in a match between England and West indies the ball was changed because of ball tampering by an umpire. Next year the umpire was removed from the English umpiring panel :) Link to comment
kabira Posted August 1, 2009 Share Posted August 1, 2009 ^by umpire But you said everybody did it, it was norm. What others bowlers did it besides Imran, Sarfaraz and company. Link to comment
rainy day Posted August 1, 2009 Share Posted August 1, 2009 You misunderstood ( or i miss wrote ) the umpire changed the ball because it had been tampered with by the fielding side i.e England. Link to comment
kabira Posted August 1, 2009 Share Posted August 1, 2009 ^ok thats just one instance involving other countries besides paksitan. You claimed that all do it so whatever Imranbhai did was okay Link to comment
