He is not Yasir Hameed, his hair is longer..RAW agents were in touch with Ram Gopal Verma to find them a Yasir Hameed Look-Alike. The Leather Jacket was worn by Sharuk in the movie Duplicate and the glass was supplied by Mossad

Yaseer told this match is fixed-obviously http://www.cricinfo.com/wisdenalmanack/content/story/233572.html this is from cricinfo: No match could have typified better the reputation of Pakistan and their captain for unpredictability. In the tournament's 13 previous games, only once, when Bangladesh disintegrated against South Africa, had the captain winning the toss chosen to bat. In cloudy conditions utterly suited to bowling, Inzamam-ul-Haq defied both form and logic. Lara could hardly disguise his delight as the batsmen struggled to cope. Pakistan lost the 19-year-old debutant Salman Butt (blooding him was another odd decision) in the first over, but somehow picked their way to 64 for one after 18 overs. Yasir Hameed was even threatening a big score when he risked a second run to third man and was beaten by Bravo's pinpoint throw. Thereafter, the batsmen fell like mown grass. Yasir hit six boundaries, his colleagues three between them as they plummeted to 131 all out. In mitigation, they could cite the cold, the damp and the pitch, though movement was never extreme. Shoaib Akhtar tore in at speeds of up to 95mph from the start of the West Indian reply, and blew away both openers. But despite murky light, Sarwan and Lara looked unhurried - until Shoaib unleashed a snorter of a short delivery that Lara misjudged. As he turned away, the ball slammed into his neck just behind his jaw and he collapsed to the ground. Lara wanted to continue, but dizziness prevented him. It emerged later that as Lara had walked out to bat, Shoaib had greeted him with a cheery "I'm going to kill you." It was a day when everything Pakistan did was ill-judged, and Sarwan calmly took West Indies to victory. ------------------------------------ i think the wisden almanack report above almost vouches for authenticity of Yasser's remarks to undercover NOTW reporter. http://www.newsoftheworld.co.uk/news/943688/Pakistan-cricket-star-Yasir-Hameed-talks-about-match-fixing-teammates.html?OTC-RSS&ATTR=News this will certainly involve Inzy, Moin who were ICL fixers too! i really wish the ICC meet up with Yasser quickly before he is silenced by pakis.

A Paki fans reasoning....

Its such sad news for Pak cricket fans. THEY ARE THE ONES WHO HAVE BEEN TRULY AFFECTED BY THIS. Their heroes are allegedly cheating their own fans and country...all this happening while they face the most severe catastrophe their country has ever seen. Forget how the England team feel..thats small compared to what these poor fans must be feeling. They must be wondering how good their team can really have been, cos if theyve been paid to lose all their matches...what would happen if they had played to win?! My guess is they would be the best in the world by miles...how much joy, respect and honour would that have brought to a nation dogged by tragedy after tragedy?

Interesting article on that game, raising further suspicion: http://www.cricinfo.com/pakistan/content/story/143613.html Why did Pakistan opt to bat against West Indies? Wisden Cricinfo staff September 27, 2004 Inzamam-ul-Haq's curious move to bat first in Pakistan's Champions Trophy semi-final game against West Indies has attracted plenty of adverse comment, and most of the team management are already trying to distance themselves from the decision. An AFP report on Saturday quoted Bob Woolmer, the coach, as saying that the decision was prompted by the advice from "high sources". He didn't name those sources, fuelling speculation in the media about who they may be. Today, the Pakistan board was quick to issue a clarification, as Shaharyar Khan, the board chairman, and Wasim Bari, the chief selector, denied that they had in any way influenced the decision. "I have spoken to Woolmer and he did not mean board officials or selectors when he said `high sources'," Shaharyar clarified in a report which appeared in The News, a Pakistan daily. "What he meant was that the team management fielded first on basis of advice from people who have vast experience of playing at and of the Rose Bowl. "So, basically, the team management took advice from people associated with Hampshire who had vast experience of playing besides having knowledge about the Rose Bowl conditions like players, umpires, groundsman etc. But in the end it was a unanimous decision of the Pakistan team management, and, in hindsight, you can say it was a bad decision to bat first. But personally, I believe we didn't lose because of this. The fact is we lost because we didn't bat well at all." Despite losing an early wicket in that game, Pakistan were a relatively healthy 65 for 1 before things went awry, as the last nine wickets went down for a further 66. Woolmer later indicated that batting first had been a mistake. "Our initial plan throughout the tournament was to field first and chase so it took quite a lot of persuading for us to change, but unfortunately it backfired on us, and in hindsight we might say we would have liked to bowl," he told AFP. "But I am quite comfortable with the fact that if I made a mistake. I am prepared to put my hands up and say so but it wasn't done lightly." Pakistan's decision came in for severe criticism from the local media, with reports claiming that Yousuf Youhana, the vice-captain, was another who favoured fielding first. At the post-match press conference, Inzamam justified the decision by saying that a score of around 220 would have been very difficult to chase. As his team found out, setting such a target proved to be even tougher.
