Hair unlikely to umpire Pakistan


The International Cricket Council says it will act to prevent reinstated umpire Darrell Hair from standing in matches involving Pakistan.
Hair has not officiated in a major match since the infamous Oval Test in 2006, when Pakistan refused to continue after being accused of ball-tampering.
One of crickets most controversial incidents began when Pakistan were penalised five runs and England were allowed to select a different ball in the fourth and final Test of the 2006 Test series.
Hair, 55, was dropped from the ICCs elite panel following the fiasco at The Oval, and began a racial discrimination claim against crickets governing body.
