The fourth test between England and Pakistan has ended in a farce with it being the first ever test match forfeited in 129 years of test cricket.warcraft 3 mac limewire
The initial incident took place in the 56th over, when umpires Hair and Doctrove deemed that the quarter seam on the ball had been raised and would therefore have to be changed. But the situation only really kicked off after tea, as the Pakistanis remained in their dressing-room in protest at the decision.
After waiting in the middle of the pitch for twenty minutes, he umpires went to the Pakistan dressing-room to ask whether or not Inzamam-ul-Haq would lead out his team or not before they went out, took the bails off and left, thus awarding the Test to England.

Interesting. I doubt that this is the last we'll hear of it. Pakistan will definitely feel aggrieved, as they were definitely in the driver's seat for this test and had a decent chance of winning it.warcraft 3 mac limewire
