Probably harbhajan is afraid that okeys across the world will attack him for comparing them to a Jack Ass like Symonds
Guys yes,Australian r cheaters.But who r not in cricket????Forget abt Gentleman's game.In modern cricket only 1 player is gentleman.And thats Brian Charles Lara.But sorry to say others r not.Even Sachin doesnot fit into that category.because once I have seen standing in the crease even though he knicked the ball and umpire gave him not out. And for cheating everybody does.Somebody very small,some large extent.If somebody say that Indians never cheated ihn India,then sorry to say that either they dont see cricket matches fully or strictly believe the Indian media.Every media is biased to their own country.So Indian and Australian media will never write when some decisions will favour them.If u dont believe my words then plzz collect the games played in India and see,specially umpire Jayprakash's decisions. So only solution to this game is,plzz ban the game cricket itself. And for Bhajji,I dont know whether he says or not.Racial abuse is a very big crime.He can abuse others like Aussies,but that not racially.If Mike Proctor has any evidence abt Bhajji abt Racial abuse then guys chill,he has not get any big punishment.If its football,then he may be banned for 6months to 2 years.

Hello Please note that this is a racial abuse case wher millions of monkeys are agrieved Harbhajan needs to be severly punshed for comparing monkeys to a Jack Ass like symonds
continueing the tour of Asutralia is only to get some more bans and defeats for India no matter you are playing well batted bowled and fielded. We have to loosed players and matches to create some records for Australia. We all Indian should call the team back and fight for justice for Harbhajan. As Bhajji is unplayable by the Chief CHEAT who is playing out of the ground by purchasing UMPIRES MATCH REFEREE and even ICC

Hi You seems to be quite disaapointed and frustated. Who says asustralians are cheaters. What all we said is about the wrong umpire decions and bad sportmen ship shown by OZ cricket players(not australians). specially about ponting (U know ganguly was notout and ponting raised the fingre.) Is ponting is umpire? or are the oz playing cricket on some street in city. And u r running out of the track.Cricket is different thing and doing the job in oz-owened companies is different thing.Well indians are talented so they are able to do the job. And hey friend we r friends and not enemies. So never talk in such a racial way .......

I can tell you mate that no one in Australia will care one bit if you close down your call centres. The reason you have white coaches is that they are the only ones who have the guts to take on the job. Where is Sunny ??, where is Kapil ?? where is Azza ?? they aren't interested because they don't have the patriotism or the balls to take on the job.

first...you have no business coming here and calling us losers and all the crap you posted...and abt ur lecture abt being patriot...I don't give a rat's ass abt it...world will move on regardless of what you think. BTW I will be going to aus to get a job....don't mind screwing you guys. And also I will be opeing call centers here just so you losers there lose jobs..choke on that
No doubt the umpiring at Sydney was abysmal and cost us the match.No doubt the Bajji spat with Symonds was strung together by Ponting to get even with India after what happened in India (aggression etc) and in equal measure to muzzle the chief threat Bajji.Ponting personally may not be relishing being called Bajji's bunny. But this does not take away from the fact that we batted poorly inthe second innings.There are sme who have consistently fared poorly in the series..Jaffer has been terrible.So has Yuvraj.Worse for Yuvraj,he can neither play spin or pace that well after the new ball has lost its shine.Dhoni also loos idiculous,the way he played off spin from Symonds. Funny how the Bajji issue and the Umpiring issue is hiding these failures.India shd go into Perth making changes and really fighting.

Are you an Indian? I think no. because we have batted poorly because of Jaffer was out LBW of a NO Ball, Dravid was ct. behind while padding the ball, Dhoni LBW struck way out of the offstump and Ganguly ct. at slip on a grounded catch. This is the game you considered as batted poorly. If you are an Indian it seems you are preferred to be an Australian and ashamed to be Indian. Please do leave the country and be there to cheat us whenever you get a chance. Be Indian fight to get the pride of our country.
kuch jeetney keliye kuch harna padutha hai..its all about BAAZI... If we do not call off the tour or a public apology of anykind from ICC, Bucknor/Benson/3rd umpire, we can conclude that its all part of a bigger drama/soap opera..all cries, looks, dialogues, shouts , court scene, everything..
if we had drawn the match, the issue would have died. anyway losing is not new for us and winning new to aus.. the matter of the same was shown in a different style.. money's worth drama and lot of debates for us to make after the match.. more money for rediff..BCCI, cricketers...tv channels.. controversies sell more...
Why cannot the central government led by a congress party be dissolved because a CPI ruled state player was given wrongly out. Pawar has excused the umpiring error 1:12 because it benefitted INDIAN BATTING LEGEND TENDULKAR.
When BJP was in power we beat pakistan, we won australia, we drew also, we went to finals. bring back BJP. Things would again look bright.
long live atalji, he even gave tips on batting, running between the wickets, catching,
