Seems Bob Woolmer will not get peace for soon. After the stretched death-investigation drama which finally ended in declaring his death as natural, now it's the drama about Bob's benefit match. Bob's widow has been requesting Pakistan Cricket board for a benefit match in the memory of Bob, the proceeds of which will go to a trust in his name. Earlier it was planned as a game between England and Pakistan. But all the cricketers are in such a tight schedule that, though most of them want to pay tribute through a game, the boards seem to have no dates left for this game.
Now, Bog's widow is requesting for an India and Pakistan match. And the BCCI is in a fix as PCB has agreed for the match during Indian team's Pakistan visit. "We fully support the idea of Gill Woolmer to raise funds for the academy. We have confirmed the same to her," said Ehsan Malik, PCB spokesman. But did they consult BCCI before deciding about the match? Ofcourse not! Hear what Niranjan Shah, the BCCI secretary says "Where's the time. We have such a tight schedule and I don't think it's possible."
Seems like another India-Pakistan war of words in the offing. Now about CRICKET!
