Dean should have not been re-instated as he is an ill-mannered racist.Somehow controversial people are always in the news.I guess it improves ratings and brings in more advertisements.The policy nowadays seems to be :who cares about moral values as long as the money is coming in.It doesn't matter if it means welcoming a person who speaks/acts against your own very people is concerned.Who says the "SAHIB"days are over?????????
Almost all Australian cricketers are care-free trailer-trash red-neck slanderous thugs.
I personally feel Amla looks disgusting but when you are doing a job, you need to be professional. For those of you working in professional organizations, please think what would (and should) happen to you if you you called someone with a long beard a terrorist.
But everyone deserves a second chance but I cant help wondering what would have happend to a brown-skinned commentator had he made a similar remark.
Standards are different for whites and non-whites!

I said "I personally find him disgusting.." Im entitled to my taste just as you are. So as Lakshmi Bollu pointed out, just chill. I have nothing against your religion.
Its great to see Dino back in the fray after the Controversy and he deserves this place because he is paid the price for his blunder and its a right move from NEO to get him on the commentary panel. Welcome back Dino and Good luck..
Dean Jones inspite of his status of being a great cricketer, should NOT be allowed back. The Spirit of Cricket should extend also to the commentary box. It is a disgrace to cricket that racist comments such as this are forgiven!!!!
