Could be back in the first class game by next month. Who would employ him? No county over here Shirley?

Quality bowler

Every single county in the country would be interested in signing him.

He was just a young kid caught up with the wrong people, although I wonder what five years out of the game has done to him. Looked like being the next Wasim Akram five years ago.

This. He deserves another chance I reckon.

He was 18 years old from a poor background and was manipulated by his national captain

Whilst it's not right, he bowled a few no balls. He should get a second chance

Agree entirely with this.

Nail on head. Have to admit felt sorry for him.

Looked a fantastic bowler too.

Yep, got to give him the benefit of the doubt at his age and with his background. And if he's half as good as he was he'll have no problem getting a club.

What a talent he was, I thought 5 years was a bit harsh personally, serious issues but such a young lad, old enough to make his own decisions, but in that environment, 18 year olds is so young

Acts as a big detterrent to any young cricketer I suppose. If it had been less then would lead to more thinking they might get away with it.

Hope he can come back and continue where he left off.

 

[Charmless Man]

Nobody really knows the pressure he was under and he was young/naive.

Give him a chance (Durham, please).
