No Hair lost

ICC announced the resignation of the Australian umpire Darrel Hair from the ICC elite umpires panel.
As a huge amount of money was spent teaching him manners (rehabilitation), his abrupt resignation is in a sense a loss, a financial loss.
Other than the pain felt by the ICC, the cricketing community, especially the Pakistani cricket fraternity has unanimously welcomed his decision.
By the amount of back-slapping,hand-shakes and popping of Champagne bottle corks, one concludes that no one has lost a hair over Hair's decision.

Are you a bored cricket crazy Indian? Read BCCI.
