Hair knew that he done wrong. So he fears that ICC might remove him of his services. So he is reminding ICC that if they remove him, they will have to pay a big price for it.
I think that ICC fail to solve this problem. ICC should ask Darrel to provide proof on ball tempering issue, and if he fail to do so(as he been failed) then he should be out of elite pannel.His offer is not a fair offer ,ICC should give him some benefit as he done long job for ICC.I appreciate PCB calmness as they decide to play one dayers against England. This is better in the fate of cricket.
This another example of ICC being biased against Asian cricket as script shows they been communicating on phone means all Gourra on one side. Its all Bull-Crap & its ICC's fault Umpire's playing Policemen.
If Hair found guilty in this whole episode, he should be asked to step down from all his assignment. Why should he be paid a ransom for that? If he is paid that amount, it will become a bad precedence and the same will be practiced whenever someone wants money urgently! If he is right, they why should he retire?
Shocking to say the least. If Mr Hair was clear that he had acted in the best interest of the game and as per the laws therin why put a price on himself.
It shows Hair can be bought if the price is right-Hair is for sale.
Media makes these Ordinary Guys in to extra Ordinary larger than the game and the paying publc have to pay for this. It is time Technology took over for if this is the example of an Elite Panel Umpire God help us
That Hair sought it pertinent to write such letters,show that his actual interests are far from honourable. Why did Speed who knew it on 22Aug delay release of this information into the public domain??Equally Dishonourable.

Will you guys knock off the bails on the ball tampering issue and get back to fingering behind the stumps and at long off? There wont be any get-rich-quick settlement just cause you all touched up a racial issue. By order. The ICC panel
is Darrell hair's resignation going to effect us(INDIAN) than why should we worry about this.We have our own problems if we solve them we may be doing some service to the Nation. Natarajan
