Giles Clarke and his efforts to restore international cricket in Pakistan

[Slog]

Over the years this guy has done a lot for Pakistan cricket.

He was crucial in making this World Eleven tour happen and get ICC blessing

He was also the one who spearheaded us hosting some series in England in 2010

Worse than that over the years here have been several times where it would have been normal for anyone to stop supporting us. In his case particularly the spot fixing scandal when the series he helped make happen was ruined because of the trio. Or when For eg when Ijaz Butt accused England of fixing when Giles Clarke was ECB Chairman

However despite this he has always raised his voice for us in ICC

Respect!

 

[princeuk]

Completely agree, he has myour respect for sure.

 

[Boi]

I have mixed feelings regarding him. He's always seemingly tried to help Pakistan cricket out but if anyones seen the Death of a Gentleman documentary they'd know how much of an obnoxious and arrogant person he came across in that.

 

[Firebreaker]

He has done nothing for Associate cricket and also he was the one to pitch 10 team WC idea

 

[Donal Cozzie]

Rest assured everything he's done is for self benefit. Literally attempted and managed to sell the soul of the sport for his own gain.

Worst example of a sports administrator.

 

[Junaids]

Giles Clarke is the most loathsome scoundrel in cricket.

He destroyed English cricket by selling it to a Pay TV broadcaster which 85% of the country doesn't have access to.

He set up the Big Three behind closed doors.

He's done everything he can to hijack cricket for his own whims, to minimise transparency and to commandeer all power.

 

[Cuts_and_cuts_hard]

He is one of the most despicable men in all of cricket. Read up on the guy's history

 

[Markhor]

Been a poisonous influence at the ECB and in world cricket. Supporting Pakistan cricket doesn't atone for his other decisions.

He's seen the light. All is forgiven.
