Not neccesarily. What it does prove is the Umpires decision no longer means anything and lawyers now rule the roost. It is Doctrove and Hair's word against Inzamam's. While Inzimam got off due to insufficient evidence, there is also insufficient evidence to prove that Doctrove and Hair are liars.
Terrible precedent this. Once the lawyers are involved, then it is no longer is a game - cricket as we know it is now dead IMO. Be prepared for more and more legal action to take place against umpires in the future. I cannot think of any other sport where this b/s has taken place.
Exit, the noble umpire. Enter the scum sucking lawyer.
