So once again a British sporting board have backed down to the cheats.
Pakistan have benn given a draw for their refusal to come back on th the lords pitch in 2006, when the LAWS clearly state their actions deemed them a fofeit,
Just goes to show that some sporting institutes in this country have the backbone of a jellyfish.

British? Do you know what ICC stands for? Why have you also ignored the point that the Pakistan team were NOT found guilty of ball-tampering in that test? The ICC have made the right decision in my book.

OK Kran. The ICC represents world cricket. It moved to Dubai for financial reasons.
The Pakistani captain carried the can for the ball tampering & bringing the game into disrepute, as the guity bowler refused to come forward. However the verdict of not guilty was overturned ion September 2006, but he was given a four match ban.

But I still feel that the authorities are either spineless, OR are there possible repercusions.
