Unless my memory is playing tricks on me, this happened off a (leg-side) wide in one of the matches I saw in the West Indies. I'll see if I can dig it up

Edit: Got it

This is completely different from the decision where an LBW is given, and the ball runs away to the boundary for four runs, only for it to be overturned.

I'll channel my inner Slippy, it's a misunderstood game this.

Fairly certain I'm the only one who's been watching the Pakistan Cup.

Imam ul Haq is a hack and his success has come against crap sides only. Bats too slow and doesn't seem to have a very high ceiling. Reminds me of Ramiz Raja. I'd much rather have Abid Ali or Khurram Manzoor in the side instead of him. Sharjil Khan and briefly, Nasir Jamshed were better too. He's been very fortunate to face some Zimbabwe B teams. Overrated hack. Didn't even do anything of note in PSL.

Yeah, his star crashed all too soon. He was awesome for a year or 2. Very flamboyant. There was also a time when some said Umar Akmal > Virat though :laugh:

Jamshed was a fat boi, plain and simple...but he still got a run in the National team.

If Rakheem Cornwall was Pakistani, he might have been a veteran of 50 tests by now

Anyone else really tired of the phrase "long levers/handle"?
