You can't war against a condom...

Just think of the number of babies we'd need to feed in the world if that happens.

Seriously usy, stop smoking hashish. You fit into my category of 55% Pakistanis smoking hashish now :p

I know that in Australian football, the AFL conducts all drug testing rather than allowing the clubs to. The ICC have got to adopt some sort of code here, and enforce it. It's absolutely ridiculous to allow teams to test and punish their players themselves.
That's just not viable on an international scale. All Australian football clubs are bound by Australian laws. By contrast each cricket-playing country has its own set of laws and politics. Take, for example, the England ICL issue. They could not ban ICL players because of their laws, regardless of how the ICC felt about the situation.

I don't know whats part of your big hype, being against me, I'm trying to make stuff simple for people around me.

LOLz, when doing drugs that would be the last thing in his mind.

Anyways, RIP Asif, you down ass bitch but i aint mad ach'ya.

ring.. ring.. ring..
Really simple... Get back on topic everyone, it's fine to talk about Islam's laws on drugs but extending it to sex and alcohol is offtopic.

They can still make a code of conduct and tell countries they have to enforce certain bans for offences. Are you saying that the better alternative is to leave it all to the cricket boards and see such blatant ignorance of the laws of every major sport in the world?

They have that code of conduct--it is provided by the WADA. There is no question of a "better alternative" as what you are suggesting is not even an alternative. The most the ICC can do is prevent the players from participating in ICC-organized tournaments. Otherwise, if specific country's have laws preventing bans on the basis of employment protection, you have no option but to respect the accused player's legal rights. As bad as it may sound, that's how it is. Not everyone can be measured by the same yardstick, as right as it may seem.
 
Clearly though, drug testing is viable on an international scale, as it is conducted through many international sporting bodies. Olympic penalties for drugs do not vary according to the country in which the Olympic Games are held.
 
Does the ICC not run all international cricket, or at least have some sort of important role in it?
 
Here's what some Expert say :--

The PCB should have properly educated Asif and it seems that a good talent is spolied now.I see a dark future for asif who himself was not serious about his game,:FORMER PAK SKIPPER ZAHEER ABBAS SAID

It's time PCB stopped supporting players who are constantly bringing a bad name to Pakistan. there is no doubt that Asif has been responsible for Spoling Pakistan cricke's Image not once but many times,"
SAID BY JAVED MAINMAD

Pakistan team has lost a great talent" Said by me:D
 
that is why discipline is so important, if one ignores discipline for talent and for immediate success . .it will hurt badly later . like this has hurt a whole nation Pakistan. .which is difficult to overcome . .maybe never.
 
It's Impossible Pakistan players were constantly in controversies:( come on team have the spirit of the game
 
After reading the article, I'm going to reserve my judgement on Asif until the drug in question is declared.


He was first caught with Nanladrone, something which occurs naturally in humans, and everyone jumped on him for being a druggie. There is a chance that that could occur in abnormal amounts in a human without needing drugs, yet no proper study into it was made and the PCB just brushed it under the carpet. He might have even taken drugs, but even then it could have been through the medication he was taking and he didn't know. I feel he shouldn't have gotten off scott-free, a slight tap on the wrist and a suspension would have been fine. There was no need to label him a cheat.

Then he was caught here in Dubai with Opium. Now that was bad. UAE is very strict with drugs and take it very seriously (I heard a story where a guy was caught with a trace of coccain on his shoe and was detained for a few days before being let go :P), and the amount must have been significant enough that they could see it and test it. However, they claimed insignificance and just deported him. I expected them to probably ban him from the country or imprison him since they had confirmed it was opium, but I guess they didn't want to hurt thier relationship with the Pakistani Governement...

But what punishment he gets now should dependon what the drug is. If it is something that is again found naturally in humans but in abnormal amounts in him, then I say he should get a proper medical examination at regular intervals to see whether he is the one off person who has abnormal levels of the stuff or needs to take drugs to acheive those levels. There is every chance he could be a freak of nature - he is such a thin, wiry fellow and has incredible stamina and strength. Although, ofcourse, they could be attributed to drugs...

If the drug he tested for was a recreational drug, just like opium, then he should recieve a punishment. But how serious a punishment? Recreational drugs are used by athletes as Painkillers, I remember reading that a while back. If he used it that way, then hw severe should the punishments be for using a painkiller? Indeed, it must say a lot about the amount of cricket these players are being forced to play that they need to take painkillers to carry on. If he is found guilty of taking a painkiller, then I feel the ICC should take steps to curb the amount of cricket being played rather that ban him.
 
If he was taking something as a painkiller there are special exemption certificates, can't remember what it was called. It's on CricInfo somewhere.

Those tests allow for how much the body can produce, naive to think other wise.
 
I want to know what Imran Khan makes of it, the greatest guy alive, did anyone see him on Hardtalk on bbc yesterday.
 
Ban him indefinitely. Ignorance is one thing, he's just a twat.
