Ricky walk what a load of garbage these Indians whinge and sook more than an old mole at a christening people go on about its a gentlemans game and stuff so be it but you play to win the Indians have got the hide to question the credibility and sportsmanship of the Aussie players when they should start in their own backyard look at the amoint of infringements for codes of coduct the Indians have accrued and you look at the Aussies the Aussies are like Church altar boys compared I'm not saying they are perfect but th Indians have started something here with their accusations they cannot finish by claiming the Aussies are not playing in the spirit of the game...
OK I agree some umpiring decisions did go against India and they were bad calls from the umpire it was not the Aussie team that made these calls but to turn around and blow it all out of proportion is nonsense I am sure it would not have escalated out of control if Ponting kept quiet about the alleged racial slur about Symonds what is he suppose to do keep quiet and say nothing? kumble decided to have a dummy spit and threaten to take his bat and ball and go home because it all became to hard the sooner the Aussies whip these whingeing Indians again the better!!!!!

He is cheating! He is saying (by standing there) that he didn't hit it isn't he..?? He clearly hit it - therefore he is cheating!
And I believe he did claim a catch that he clearly didn't catch!!!!
I've got a grip mate don't worry about that. You're part of the minority who thinks Australia play fair and play gentleman like, but I'm part of the majority who know that just isn't the case.

It's more than that and you know it. It's Andrew Symonds mouthing off then getting some back and then "alleging" (remember it's alleged) that he was called a monkey. I'd like to know the worst thing his ever been "allegedly" been called before. I'd love to know what he was saying at the time! Mate I'm Aussie through and through, but I can't cop the Australian team at the moment. Their great at what they do but they do it in a manner that makes 80% of Australia cringe! Ricky ponting should never have been named captain! He has created the bad attitude of this team and he could have done things differently with how his handled this whole affair.
As for Kumble it's hardly his decision to make about going home. It was the board and I don't really blame them for standing up for their players. You put up with this - get every dodgy decision possible when you're bowling "Twice", back that up with getting every possible bad decision when your bowling "Twice", Then have a player suspended not on hard evidence but just the word of other players! the same players that say they didn't hit the ball the same players who claim they took a catch that they didn't!! tell me you wouldn't do that for say for instance your son?
I'm glad they didn't go coz now they are spanking the Aussie cricket team!! Had they not been robbed in Sydney they'd be smashing us!
Just my opinion.

I reckon you would be the only person who is saying he clearly didn't catch it. At best everyone else is saying it was inconclusive.
Yeah, wont argue there, you certainly have a grip on it.
Reckon you got the minority and majority back to front there, I am yet to speak to anyone who has your opinion.

I'll take your word for it
Are you a juoranlist? That's some mighty fine editing there. See with the "grip on it comment" that boarders on nasty!
I won't hold it against you because your Victorian and you have my sympathy If you were a NSW-elshman - or a Queenslander (I'm sure you wish you were) I could understand you defending the team, but is there even one Victorian in the side? you do know that Shane warne retired?

Garfield you Goose. Its a game at which we're very good and we play to win. They get paid a motza to entertain us. Are you saying the the majority of motor sport fans watch the cars going round in circles to see a driver win without any drama. Nope, the crowds go to see prangs and mayhem. Boxing we watch to see 2 dunderheads beat the crapola out of each other. Get a grip brother. Its sport not church.
The trouble with this country and its nanny mentality is that we're breading a generation of softc**ks. Ponting is a tough and uncompromising skipper doing an excellent job on and off the field. As AB said, no past captain of Australian cricket has it as tough as Ricky Ponting.
Cheers
If you never made a mistake, you never made anything!

Now that Harbie has slapped a fellow Indian cricketer after an IPL match, does anyone still think that he wasn't at fault in Australia? This is the man that has been 'disciplined' (or let off!) lots of times in recent years, and is a repeat offender. Anyone still going to blame Symonds or Ponting for the troubles in Australia???
Apparently after his team won a 20/20 match, Sreesanth walked up to Harbhajan (who was on the losing side) and, with a smile on his face, said "Bad luck". This was enough for Harbhajan to slap Sreesanth across the face. He now faces a 5 test match ban (or at worst a life ban), but insists that it was nothing and that it is a matter between him and Sreesanth. This guy is a blight on the game, pure and simple. Get rid of him.
I wonder who the Indian cricket board is going to blame for this one...Bob C.
Never give up.
