Ricky ponting has posted an article in The australian stating that he supports the action. He still believes that all those catches were clean. lol in my opinion, This guy need mental asylum. Shameful aussie prick! http://www.theaustralian.news.com.au/story/0,25197,23020032-5013997,00.html
I didn't read the article in your given link. I am not interested in reading an article of an alcoholic drunk man. I saw the match.They were just furious to win the 2nd match(may be because of the record).We all know the true part of it.Ponting has confusion in his mind that's why he is trying to proof it.truth needs no proof. I thought ponting remains drunk in the night off the field but now it seems he remains drunk on field too it was clearly found when he appealed the catch for dhony.we all saw on tv that the ball touched the ground when he fall,but he could not realize it , because he was drunk then(I think so.who knows?).
Seems like all the Indians are banding together on these forums trying to bash the Australians, when we all know the issue is that Harbhajan crossed the mark by saying a racist remark on the field. Who cares, if he didn't catch it or not? It's not his fault the umpires were too stupid to see anything.
Well different countries will support different teams here. Again forum members from different countries will take sides and this will get nasty. The fact that the australian media has vented ire on ponting and co is a clear indication of who was at fault.
Well I don't think so Indians are thinking about same. But In Australia, a famous Sport writer Peter Roebuck agree with those mistakes. Check his hard words: "Arrogant Ponting must be fired" "The Australian captain's disrespect for his opponents has embarrassed his country," Yoy may read it: http://www.smh.com.au/news/cricket/arrogant-ponting-must-be-fired/2008/01/07/1199554571883.html
Is there any proof? I didn't hear it or see it. Did you hear it? BTW I am not from India.I am just a lover of cricket and I love fair play too.
Even Umpire doesn't heard it and not Referee too. Even they ignore a statements of Sachin Tendulkar who was there at that time. Everyone knows Sachin is honest player and have a clean records.
Just saw some new channels they were showing pics of Australian Newspapers.. even people of Australia are against their team and specially Ricky Ponting... his attitude just sucks!
yeah unfortunately porter (another mastermind in the game) declared harbhajan a "Racist" per ponting and symond's non-sense. He didnt bother to hear what sachin said. Its like Ponting is GOD, whatever he say is good to believe. If at all it was true, the aussie media would never write such strong article against ponting. Ricky boy needs rehabiliation.
As the saying goes its just not cricket. This reminds me of when Australia played South Africa home and away about a year ago there was a lot of bad feeling between them also.
As you sow, so should you reap! The remark was not racist at all and over it who told you he said anything? Dont tell me you was hiding yourself in symonds underwear or pockets to hear the alleged remarks! You guys have made cricket and your country shame by your acts and I know you will continue to do so by your attitude and sportsmanship. Why? Were you in with delusion to hear the alleged remarks? yeah go boy go! deface and disrepute your country boy go on
pontings at the crease there's silence around the ground Australia need 2 runs to take victory and to send the Indians back to the dressing room a defeated side in this crucial 2nd test shhhh !Tendulkar turns and starts his approach He bowls ponting makes contact with the willow he's driven it through the covers they run score is now level Oh Oh No its an over throw they turn and scramble for a third their home Australia have WON what a match they the Australians have done it they have demoralised the Indians crikey whats this a protest ah it's just not cricket,
