Hair is on a contract, unless he breaches teh contract, they must pay him untill the end of the contract. His offer is quite , legal , quite ethical and usual, he will accept a present sum against his future earnings.
This of course contrasts with the Pakistani admission that they for decades accepted bribes.
Hair confered with his BLACK fellow umpire who concured that the ball was picked. This is teh same thing that Atherton a WHITE cricketer was fined for, and of course this isnt the first time Pakistan has been pulled up for ball tampering. The Pakistani captain as the manager admited made a mistake in staying out of play for too long. A mature capatin would protest to the the match umpire or teh ICC. Hair would know that the ball would be later be examined by the ICC.

Raja, I think by the umpires at the senior level no, I think that Hair as an Australian might hate the traditional English enemy. I think that the bowler that Hair no balled before had a very very suspect action, Someone should have examined it before, Hair showed he had balls (hairy balls?) by being the person who said this needed to be examined. I think that if Engalnd or New Zealand did something against the spirit of the game or the rules Hair would go them as hard if not harder than he Did Pakistan. I saw the black umpire look at the ball and agree with Hair. It may well turn out there is nothing wrong with the ball, but that doesnt mean Hair got it wrong, he is there to query things like this, however Hair has had years and tear at being an umpire so has the other umpire, they BOTH saw something. I dont think they did it for racist reasons. I do belive that India, Lanka or Pakistan if they need to win would play the racist card against Hair for an advantage

Do I think the aussie would sledge racialy if they saw it working yes I do, do I know the west indies in their years of when they were the best team in the world sledge the whites? I know they did.
However if you have red hair or fat , or run funny every team will use that against you every time, it is part of cricket. While my knowlede is only second hand I belive that at the end of every test the teams normaly socialise, if the sledging was serious I dont think the teams would socialise.

At the end of teh day this incident will let all teams that cheat know that if they kick up enough fuss the umpire will be intimindated and the legitmat teams will suffer. Pakistan has never been clean, Pakistan's behaviour is a disgrace

Brain4u you still dont understand why he did it, I dont think their is hope for you

Firstly I am not your Dear,
How do you know what Hair's contract consists of? post the url
If you are correct then it still stands, Hair can ask for anything he likes, there will be no finding that Hair did anything wrong he followed the laws of cricket. They may disagree with teh ball being tamerpered with, however that is not a displinary matter.Hair has quite lagitimatly offered to resgin for that sum, if he doesn then they may find they wish him to go and for finacial reasons that is a good amount. Been done before will be done again in business, not illeagl or unethical.

You capture the whole debate beautifully. It is so easy to take the racist angle and make everybody forget about the actual point of debate. Is the ball being tampered with or not? It is so easy to follow the logic of a fan,"he can't be cheating, he is our country's hero. So the only reasonable explaination is that the ref is a racist" Which, IMHO, is just an illogical way of thinking of a sport fan. Anybody has any news on the ball in question?

P.S. Although I don't agree with you using the word Paki there, some people might take offense, you know?

but my dear u r ignoring an important point in explaining the contract...it is vry CLEARLY mentioned in th eICC contract with the umpires that ICC holds the right to expell any u,pire for disciplinary rason without compnsating him foe the future losses that hemight suffer. It is also very clearly mentioned that compensation to umpires cannot be granted untill the services are rendered...and in this case HAIR doesnt make a strong point....because if the hearing finds him guilty..then he cannot claim anything from ICC...and if he isn ot found guilty...he will be asked by ICC to continue umpiring...but what he has done is that with the hearing yet to be conducted..he has asked ICC 2 pay him that huge sum....here in this case..daryll hair himself is going out of the scne....no one asked him not 2 umpire anymore...therefore he has no right 2 ask for money!!!

isnt this greediness?? it may not b racism...ut by no means can v say that daryl hair is not a cheat!! his lust for money can now manke many argue his previous standings in international matches...i will not b shocked if some day he himslef or some player or some bookie reveal that hair ahd been involved in match fixing!!

Billy doctrove looked a much subdued umpire when all was happening...it was ALL hair's decision...!!

Did any 1 se strauss and pieterse talking on thier cell phones in the dressing room balcony??? isnt this a complete breach of ICC code of conduct??

so ur saying its pakistan's fault? pak is guilty? n some people in their answers even said paki people r backward.

well if this was true, then umpire Darryl Hair would not write a letter to the icc or pcb watever it was, saying that he would back down his accusition if he was given $500 000!

this letter was exploited to the media, unwantingly by the icc. it was in the news every where. r u guyz blind deaf or dumb?
