In terms of being a Pakistan cricket fan, this is the saddest day of my life. I am so depressed that I don't think I can even bring myself to watch the CT, or any other cricket for some time. I certainly can not stomach watching any Pakistan game without anger and disgust overwhelming me. Contrary to what Scaly may believe, Pakistani's are not cheats. When some of our own are caught doing something like this, it is like a punch to the stomach. If the B sample is also positive and there is no logical explanation provided for how else they could've tested positive, then I believe both Akthar and Asif should be banned for 2 years minimum. In fact, I think Akhtar has used up his nine lives LONG ago and needs to be banned permanently. A two year ban for Asif, IMO, would also effectively derail his once promising career. So be it. If you don't have the moral decency to represent your country proudly and honestly, then you don't deserve to play for your country! I would rather we lose every series from now on with ethical players, rather than win the WC with corrupt ones.
What a sad day man. This sucks.
