Pakistan cricket coach found Unconscious. This is shocking.


Recommended Posts

apparently in news they say, "Last email by bob woolmer mentioned he was extremely disappointed by ireland defeat, but he was going back to pakistan as soon as possible and going to start writing a book. he also mentioned he had all information about match-fixing links around the team and going to write about it too"

now they say someone who got wiiff of this murdered him. but nothing is certain yet.

Things are getting twisted.... I feel the police have certainly ruled our suicide and going more towards murder angle.

Not really basing this on anything, but I think it could have been Inzamam.

He said he was in his room while Woolmer was laying on the floor in bad condition. Inzamam was quoted as saying something like "i never seen bob in such a bad state", now.. I don't know about you guys, but if I see a guy laying on his back on the floor and clearly "in such a bad state" that has never been seen, i'd help the guy out! Not leave him there to rot.

I could be completely wrong but so far, to me anyway. It looks like Inzamam could be the main suspect.

well, i heard something different in news like the Media Manager found Bob FIRST, then informed others..

now the unusual thing is , the Hospital Bob Woolmer was taken is reportedly just 15 minutes away. Still it took 1 hour for him to be taken to that hospital.... no one knows why .

Rumour mill is running on top gears so let not pull out names till we know for certain...

another rumour is the Match-Betting mafia did it, as its alleged, that mafia made "HUGE MONEY" and gave "huge share" to pakistan team to loose, something around 1000 core Indian rupees ( which is huge).. and Bob came to know the day Pakistan lost ... someone didnt like it and killed him... thats the rumour..

now lets wait and see..... it will be good if truth comes out fast.

Pakistan cricket coach strangled to death: Police

Mar 22, 2007 08:11 PM

Associated Press

KINGSTON, Jamaica ? Pakistan?s cricket coach Bob Woolmer was strangled to death in his hotel room after the team?s shocking World Cup loss to Ireland, Jamaican police said Thursday.

Police Commissioner Lucius Thomas said in a statement that the pathologist report found that Bob Woolmer?s death was due to ``asphyxia as a result of manual strangulation.?

The statement, which was read by a police spokesman at the Jamaica Pegasus Hotel where Woolmer died on Sunday, said police were now treating the case as a murder investigation.

?There is an ongoing murder investigation into the death of Robert Woolmer and as a result the security arrangements at the Jamaica Pegasus Hotel are a part of those investigations,? Owen Ellington, assistant commissioner of police, said in a statement also read by a police spokesman.

Woolmer, 58, was found unconscious in his blood- and vomit-splattered hotel room in Jamaica on Sunday, a day after his team?s upset loss to Ireland on St. Patrick?s Day sealed Pakistan?s ouster from the tournament. He was later declared dead at a hospital.

Pakistan cricketers were fingerprinted and interviewed on Thursday by police investigating Woolmer?s death. They were allowed to leave the hotel in the afternoon and travel to Montego Bay.

who is silar?

i think GeoTV mentioning that 1 suspect in Jamaica arrested and police will release info in next 10 hours. this person was in contact regularly with Pakistan, srilanka and Indian (wtf?) teams. his cell phone is confiscated too.

another news is the famous terrorist Dawood Ibrahim in Pakistan was involved with Huge betting money and he ordered the killing (of course its a rumor) .but lets see.

at least the police were able to announce that it was murder..... hope this gets over soon, its just a Dark day in cricket history,

All those normal peoples who try to make quick bucks by illegal betting should think now, their money snowballed into such a big moollah that someone killed someone just to take the biggest share of pie.... really sad and sick.

If India don't win they are out also.

The Indian cricket coach Greg Chappell will have to come under high security.

It has to be one or two people close to Bob Wolmer that did the dreadful deed as I am sure the hotel

had good secuirty.

As one of millions of South Africans who got to know and love Bob Woolmer when he coached the National side, I am absolutely horrified at these events that have taken place! I first met Bob when I played cricket at school and club level and all I can say is that he was a decent and good person who did not deserve this and I am truly shocked and saddened by this disgusting act of violence. The perpetrator(s) of this crime should be made to suffer the same fate as poor Bob Woolmer, sentence him to death by strangulation or garrote him!

They suspect the killing is connected to a gambling mafia / corruption. Yet another sport that is hugely corrupt. They aren't sports anymore... they are businesses and as such some people will stop at no lengths to make a better margin - even murder.

I wouldn't be surprised if it is related to that. Wasn't Woolmer the coach of South Africa during the era when they had a few problems with match fixing?

I hope they find out who did this quickly. Its too bad it happenned. People are going to remember the world cup because of this not for Cricket :(

    • New Outlook for Windows and Web is getting a simple but very useful email feature by Sayan Sen Recently Microsoft put up a blog post highlighting not one, not two, but 15 total reasons why it feels you should switch to New Outlook already. If that was not enough, the company is bringing another new feature soon that could finally compel you to switch over to the new app. According to a recent update on the Microsoft 365 roadmap, the tech giant is making changes to how message sorting works when users choose criteria besides the traditional options of From, Subject, or Date Received. The idea is to provide better options for the attribute being used for sorting and make it easier to understand why messages appear in a particular order. For those unfamiliar Outlook already allows users to sort emails using a variety of fields including sender, category, importance, subject, and message size. Users can access these options through the Filter menu in Outlook for Windows and Outlook on the web. With the upcoming change, whenever users sort by a field other than From, Subject, or Date Received, Outlook will automatically display an additional column showing the value being used for the sort. For example, if messages are sorted by Size, a Size column will appear in the message list, allowing users to immediately see the data that determines the ordering of emails. Microsoft believes this should make sorting behavior simpler and reduce the need to manually adjust views or inspect individual messages. Support for sorting by Flag Due Date is also coming and should be especially be helpful for users who rely on email flags to manage follow-up tasks and deadlines. The feature is listed under Microsoft 365 Roadmap ID 564803 and is expected to reach general availability beginning later this month itself (June 2026). You can find the entry here. As always though, users should keep in mind that roadmap timelines can change and rollout schedules may occasionally be adjusted by Microsoft. Outlook for Web is also set to receive this feature.
    • That is true. but the liability side of my balance sheet is clean and has been for decades.  Nobody comes a knocking,  calling or writing harassing me for the money i owe them.😎👍  Haven't dealt with "a money changer" in decades and like Jesus it was in Jerusalem.  Don't have much money, but have even less stress in my life.👍👍     P.S.  Sorry, can't walk on water or change it to wine, 
    • Maybe ? DLSS Swapper (can swap the DLSS/FSR/XeSS versions) as long as the game (typically online/competitive) doesn't checks for file tampering. You can try different version(s) or update if not the current version of the FSR. https://github.com/beeradmoore/dlss-swapper
