KARACHI: Pakistan’s former captains Moin Khan and Inzamam-ul-Haq have criticised Indian skipper Mahendra Singh Dhoni for arguing with umpire Aleem Dar during the ongoing Test series against England, saying his behaviour was “unacceptable” and the ICC should have taken him to task. “I am not at all surprised that the ICC has not reacted to the way Dhoni engaged in an argument with Aleem Dar during the series as the ICC can’t afford to upset the powerful Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI),” Moin said.
“…the way Dhoni questioned Aleem Dar’s umpiring and argued with him it is unacceptable,” he added.
Moin said since the BCCI was financially very strong and influential in world cricket, the ICC did not reprimand Dhoni.
Dar was also criticised by former Australian leg-spinner Shane Warne in one of his tweets and described as a poor umpire for a bad decision he gave during the series. (PTI)
