Sir,
Why is so much fuss being made over Shoab Akbar's swipe at Asif? After all, Shoaib is just a boy(only 32), and you should not deprive him of these small pleasures. In fact, he should be allowed to get away with a couple of murders as well. These things happen in the great game of cricket. You can't be a good bowler if people get upset when you hit another cricketer with your bat. Whar are bats for if ou can't use them for striking people? I think we should let him loosen up whenever he wants to. The best way to relax is to see one of your teammates double up in pain after you have hit him with your bat.
