It gets darker. Breaking a bone in your neck while vomiting? !laugh!

Sounds like bullshit to me. How hard was the guy retching?

Controversy has been surrounding the Pakistani cricket team a while now. Ball tampering, accusing umpires of racism, withholding players so they aren't drug tested. Now a dead coach after an embarrassing defeat, who died under suspicious circumstances.

You couldn't make it up.

Fuck me seems he has been murdered, strangled!!
Looks like he was about to blow the whistle on some major gambling gang after all.

Mr. Rasputin you are the prime suspect in my book!!

Don't try and bowl us any of your googlies Keith!!

What is the betting (not the best phrase I guess) that some tasty bets were taken on Ireland beating Pakistan then?? Also seems a bit strange that it took 4 and a half days for them to come up with the idea that he had been strangled/murdered, were they waiting for Pakistan to play their last game before announcing it??

Something don't add up here ...

Its shades of Agatha Christie's "Ten Little Indians".

I bet there's a mass exodus of Irish from Jamaica.

Possible lines of enquiries will be

Burglary..offender forced their way in
Gambling related motive
Sex
Blackmail
Domestic related

Apparently not burglary.His possessions were not touched.

Any suspect is probably long gone from the island.

Difficult even for Poirot methinks!
