Even though I am an Indian. I really support pakistan for their action. They not only represented Pakistan,infact they have raised an issue which belongs to all the subcontinent countries. Many feel that pakistan has done a wrong thing by their decision to leave the field. And even some of the experts said that they could have given a complaint after the match was over. But, how many times in the past the teams have got a feedback when they have raised a complaint after the match was over. But this time they did a right thing and made every body know what really happened on the field. This is a senstive issue which all the subcontinent teams and nations should support.

It's a shame that the gentlemanly sport of cricket has come to this. Even if they felt that the accusation of ball-tampering was unjustified, the attitude of the Pak team was just not 'cricket'. As befitting the game, being good 'sportmen', even though outraged at being docked 5 runs for the 'alleged' ball-tampering, they should have returned to the field. Cricket is meant to bring out the best in people, their sense of honor, doing the right thing and accepting the umpires decisions, whether you agree or not - their manager or captain was still free to file a complaint against the decision. Such unsporting conduct must not be allowed to go unpunished - the game of Cricket demands it.
