I pretty much never wear denim either.
Wide leg triple pleated trousers most of the time. But not in a formal way.

Nothing in particular, I just don't like them. They kinda fall into the realm of aspirational dressing in my mind, which as a man of the people I find distasteful.

Yes, I find Jono distasteful also.

Good to see people are still willing to take a big step forward and put some money on the table for a player of his quality.

I was not overly impressed with the way he bowled I know 5 years is a long time without any competitive cricket but that jump the release with the wrist is just not there also he should have used his timeoff and got himself physically stronger rather then spend all his time buying those skin lightning creams.

Too early to be that critical. 5 years off is a long time. very long

this was a very interesting read. lol at one of the really early posts saying he'd rather a murderer play for the team then Amir again because Amir's crime was 'against cricket'. Get real buddy.
Here's the common sense answer: he was a teenager who came up from some tiny ass village and has served a 5 year ban out of a 14-17 yearlong career during the prime of his youth. Everyone deserves a second chance, if he's good enough to grab it I say let him have another go. Let your personal bitterness against him fall to the wayside

Ignorant stereotyping aside, he would've been fully aware of what he was doing when he did it. Should never be allowed back in the game if we're serious about stamping out corruption.

sorry I just thought it was OTT
and trust me a 5 year ban plus jail time is a pretty good deterrent. I know everyone wants to play big bad prison warden but the punishment has to fit the crime.
i hate to wonder how some of you blokes would do as lawmakers for non-sport related crimes. 10 years for shoplifting or some **** like that

You've missed Cribbage's point, he's not got such misplaced priorities as to argue for more jail time for **** he doesn't like. He's trying to compartmentalise - if your crime is anti-cricket, your punishment should be no cricket.
I don't particularly agree but it's not lunacy.*

Quite - the quality of mercy is often strained here

So do we chop his hand off for delivering the offending ball or chop his foot for overstepping and confirming the act?
But seriously a life ban for match fixing isn't OTT. He can have a second chance doing something else.
Lawyers, doctors, teachers etc all get punted for the equivalent dishonesty for personal gain. So should cricketers.
