PCB plans to submit chargesheet against Hair
Karachi : Pakistan Cricket Board plans to submit a detailed chargesheet against Australian umpire Darrell Hair to the International Cricket Council and initiate an inquiry into his controversial conduct during the forfeited Oval Test. "We will make sure we submit a strong chargesheet against him with the ICC," a PCB official told PTI today. "The chargesheet, which will outline all the violations Hair has made of the Code of Conduct for umpires, is in the final stages and will be sent to the ICC within a week," he said. The chargesheet was being prepared after the ICC rejected an earlier request from the PCB to hold an inquiry into the conduct of the umpire in the Oval Test. "They have told us they can't do anything or hold any investigation until and unless we provide them with specific cases where Hair was deemed to have violated the umpires Code of Conduct," he added. The PCB is contesting a compensation claim from the England and Wales Cricket Board for lost revenues in the Oval Test on the grounds that Hair was responsible for triggering the trouble. |
