I am in IT and everybody in my home knows what I do and where I go during the work week. But still I get 2-3 calls from my home everyday.
In this 'mobile' age, how can we restrict anybody, leave alone Cricketers, from using his/her mobile phone for a full day? ICC can monitor their calls, IF they are suspicious, but not restrict them. What if Aamer's mom wants to wish him a word of luck/blessing before he goes to bat?
On a lighter note - Pak players don't get paid as well as Indian players. Any bookie will pay them for a single match, many times more than what their management will pay for a year. So, it is completely legitimate for all Pak players to use cell phone, even if they are talking to bookies. In fact, it is a sin to restrict them from taking to bookies. After all, we Indians have lot of career options to make a decent living. What options do Pakistanis have? Other than playing Cricket, soldier in the army, or jihadist? So, please, guys in ICC, show some mercy to Paki cricketers.
