As Jonathan Agnew said on the matter - from now on, if a team needs a draw from a game, all they have to do is stay in their dressing room and refuse to play! How silly is that?

Doesn't surprise me. The ICC was invented to make the IOC look good by comparison. Complete bunch of s who believe that Zimbabwe is credible and a place where we should all be doing business.

It should have been voided.

and if any team ever does it twice then banned from playing tests for a while.

Nope, the original result was the correct one. Agnew is correct.

I agree with you there, but it would never get ratified. Way to much money in the game on the sub continent to risk that.
