Lately, I've seen some Brits crying over ball tampering allegations over
the net, the controversy having been rehashed by Brit tabloids yet again.
It's too bad I can't pass out tissue paper over the net, but seriously
guys, get a clue (and a life). It's one thing if Indians make a deal out
of such things, their team at least has some talent and can beat the Paki
team on any given day, but Brits, plllllease... The likes of Imran,
Waseem and Waqar could bowl out the best English team with a tennis ball,
before lunch....

Haven't Imran, Wasim and Waqar toured England before? Did they bowl out
the English team before lunch break? Probably they didn't play the
*best* English team or probably they didn't bowl with tennis balls
or probably you meant before lunch on the third day after the English
team had batted for two and a half days or probably I misunderstood
you.

Later...

First step first: Are you critizing the Poms or SA's!
The Paki lineup mentioned would probably bowl any side out in world (
incl. SA) before lunch with a tennis ball, if the one side was clean shaven!

Nah...maybe just before tea, when the ball mysteriously starts to swing....:)
