Just announced that Woolmer was strangled in his hotel room and the police are starting a murder investigation
Woolmer death treated as murder
Police in Jamaica have launched a murder investigation into the death of Pakistan cricket coach Bob Woolmer.
Following the results of a post mortem examination, police said Mr Woolmer had died of asphyxia as a result of manual strangulation.
The chief police commissioner appealed for anyone with information to come forward.
Woolmer, 58, was found in his hotel room on Sunday, the day after his team lost to Ireland in the World Cup.
That's sensational news.
The Pakistan media manager nonchalantly threw a small firework into the mix by saying that Woolmer was worried about proofs of his book that went missing. Something about that they were the only proofs of the book.
Sky sports are coming out with 5 theories every 2 minutes, they'll have it solved by morning.
"Brits.":rolleyes: We ARE the Brits, at least partially.Quote:

India v Sri Lanka is the main game on sky sports. Damn you NTL for not having interactive tv, as the Ireland game is available for sky subscribers.
Windies will not be looking forward to playing us they are a shadow of their former selves and will be lucky to make it out of the super 8 group.
Funny, i thought this morning they advertised Ireland v the Windies as the game being covered live on SS1!?? W**kers!!Quote:

Should be a great round of fixtures now as i'd expect the top sides to step up a gear!

You would think that it wouldn't be stretching technology too far to make the Ireland game available on NTL.Quote:

Thank God.
I'd say the majority of the Northerners have British passports and consider themselves British
Either way no more political discussion on the thread please lads...
Would they not be more properly described as United Kingdom passports?Quote:

I would suspect Ireland don't have the strength in depth to have the luxury of resting players. Cricket not exactly the most taxing physically so can't see how the guys could be tired...Quote:

Anyway, its not that they are tired, its that they have slight injuries and another couple of days rest could help them get back to full fitness for the other games.
No one mentioned injuries. Its only 10 overs per game anyway & neither player bowled full complement last weekend. :oQuote:

This is effectively the Super 8 at this stage so resting player for this game seems no different than first 'official' Super 8 game?
Good news for those of you with NTL/Chorus. Sky have te Ireland game as the main game now...
Good stuff.
