If Aust., is such a great team why it lost the final test? All great teams either white washed the opponent or draw, but not lose.

Also, it's nice to see Lara stand-up to these stupid racist blokes/so called gentleman of cricket, what a joke/fluke...I'm glad I'm not playing/may be they should be playing Aust., rule football, etc...

Since, we have such upcoming young, talented, great players, we don't have to worry we will be on top before the world knows it. It's no need to worry, and this time we will be there to stay. Because we have some real old soar crickers out there, as their playing days are coming nigh. So, we don't have to worry, it getting close that close, see u I don't want to be u, later, racist, etc...

If Lara is a ticking bomb, then the Australians are like the RDX in that bomb. They are also the detonators. Just let me see Proctor say the same thing about Ganguly or even Nasser Hussain for that matter.

White Double Standards...that what it is....

Has anyone read the comments of Mike Procter: 'it's just gamesmanship - part of test cricket'. Let's see if Ganguly can get away with it if does that in Aus this year. Surely there is a reprimand for this on the new code of punishment that the ICC have made. An absolute disgrace. But actually we must remember the unwritten code of the ICC - one rule for some countries, another rule for the others.

Australia is a unworthy world champion. They have mastered the fine art of sledging and in some cases making racist comments on and off the field. This is totally unnecessary and cricket will be the better without it. The Austrtalians remind me of my elder brother who has the habit of setting you up when no one is looking. And when you react you become the victim. This kind of incidents will go on because those from the west cannot accept that these people from developing countries can also bat. B>Lara was restrained in his response another person may have gone at the sledgers with a wet cricket bat

Austalians always use this tactic to let other team down. Their reporters will always support their team as under stressful game or apponant's arrogance and try to teach other countries how to behave. I feel WestIndies should win this match and show aussies their place.

i dont know why this is a news , australian are known for there unethical verbal slangs used in the field by them against opposition particularly asians.
we also know that this is not the case with either steve waugh who is a gentleman or brian lara who is utterly sincere although somewhat less patient.
we do think lara will reply with bat and only bat.
we should not do propaganda of such things as this may influence the dignity of gentleman's game that is cricket.

Mr. Roebuck, just shut up and i did not expect a good writer talk about good or bad and being so biased. When Australians sledge it's good cricket, but when Lara hits back ," he has no business to confront".

Australians may be no 1 in cricket today but they are such a disgrace for the game of cricket. I wouldnt let my son watch these "convicts" (remember where they come from) play in the name of cricket.

Now they call it gamemanship!!!
by Thinker on May 13, 2003 07:07 AM


What a beautiful world this is ? And what greater human beings to live here other than the Aussie Cricket Team, and the ICC.... Now they call the Aussie behavior as "What test cricket is all about" and "Gamesmanship".. Wont this stupidity come to an end ? When all other teams get involved in such acts, thats called for indecent behavior or offence or sledging n stuff.. I really wonder when the ICC officials prove that they are all "men" in the real sense and stand up to the Aussie behavior... God save Cricket. One best thing for the opponents to do would be to Walk out the moment anyone among the aussie' utters a single word.. just like the Sri Lankans, though it was for a diff reason.. Just walk out and stand ur ground in the dressing room. Let the aussie play among themself.. A bunch of complete morons they are..
