Pakistan Cricket Team Murders Bob Woolmer
They’ve done it! Killed the only man with some dignity who had anything to do with Pakistan Cricket. You would have thought Izamam ul Haq was more dedicated to the game and had more integrity than that. I mean, come on! How on earth can you loose to Ireland?
Once again, shame on Pakistan; shame on the Pakistan Cricket Board, and shame on the Pakistani Cricket Team.
From the Presidency to the Judiciary to the Cricket, this country and its people are setting new records of patheticism. Divine help is needed.

As a Pakistani fan, this is sad news.
Bob Woolmer was a great coach, with many pioneering ideas. Not just that, but a nice person. That was the main thing about him. I was just listening to a story on one of the Pakistani news channels, and one of the commentators said that whenever any Pakistani player would go to South Africa, he would invite them to his home. He even invited the Pakistani team for dinner during the SA tour.
He was willing to adapt to any culture. The main thing I liked about him was his relationship with the Pakistani players, you can tell through their coaching sessions, and photos what a relationship they had. It was a relationship of friendship.
He kept his own website and always tried to answer cricket fans questions.
He kept his own blog on cricinfo to keep fans updated, and about his ideas of the game of cricket.
He kept himself dignified throughout the various controversies in Pakistani cricket.
From what I saw, he was a true Gentleman.
