anyway whts the point of taking these substances? i mean does it help while playing or jsut for fun ?

Dont think he deliberately can take any such stuff neither seems THAT kind of guy though he looks like one heavy smoker at least ;) but anyways, however and due to whatsoever reasons if thats the case; being a 32 years old cricketer, playing first-class since 15 year, u cant claim 'lack of education' so it would b impossible for him to get away with that...

Feel for the guy, when you're competing with Ajmal's elbow to get into the side, you sometimes need to "try" that little bit harder

[NareshK]

This is non news for Pakis. They indulge in these kind of activities like nobody's business.

Rehman tests positive, faces ban

Abdur Rehman, the Pakistan left-arm spinner, is facing a ban after failing a drugs test during his stint with Somerset in the English domestic season. It is believed the drugs were recreational and not performance enhancing. Reports first emerged in the Pakistan media and ESPNcricinfo understands that a formal announcement is due to be made within the next day. Rehman, 32, played four Championship matches for Somerset and took 27 wickets, which included 9 for 65 Worcestershire, and flew straight back from Pakistan's one-day series against Australia in the UAE to play the match against Sussex. Rehman has established himself as key player over the past year and caused England plenty of problems during the Test series in UAE, where he claimed 19 wickets in three matches. Overall he has 81 wickets in 17 Tests at 28.40 apiece.

[Iconoclast]

How the f@k is marijuana a performance enhancing drug ? I think the ECB is just taking revenge for what he did to them :giggle: Whatever ... our next test series isn't till January so he'll be back by then.
