Nov. 9th, 2010 03:12 pmOkay, it's time to admit that Cricket in Pakistan is so totally fucked-up-beyond-all-recognition (or FUBAR, as it is known to those from a certain era who were in the military) that Pakistan can no longer be seen as a credible test nation.

This article told me everything I didn't want to know or infer from the information I already had to hand. To the folk that have done this: the criminals, the folk wagering on the game, the teams, and the officials who turned blind eyes for kickbacks, I can only say: 'thanks guys'. What a way to tarnish the greatest sport and oldest team bat-and-ball game. Damn you, you fucking bastards. Damn you to hell. May you and your families be branded with the shame of this for seven generations.
And if anyone from Blighty ever engages in the same trick I think I'll advocate hanging-drawing-and-quartering for them, finishing with their heads upon spiked poles on London Bridge. Fucking tosspot shiteaters.
