given a chance whatever Indians hv to do with Pawar, let them do. But that does not mean that right is given to an outsider like Ponting.
This is something that Aussies have been found wanted, the respect for the individual is always been missing. Aussies are worst off the filed, bad on the filed.
Once Gawaskar has said that they are poor loosers. I think they are also por winnners and their on-filed and off-filed behaviour is dismal.
BCCI's lack of identitiy/impression against ICC has been exposed once again. BCCI has been nothing but a mockery in ICC terms. BCCI is enjoying making money by making billions of Indians fool, but whenever it will come to national pride, they are spineless:
1. Gilchrist banged Umpire after giving no ball (free hit) in one of the onedayers, BCCI did not objected. 2. No umpire in elite pannel, no issues to BCCI. 3. Match refree and Umpires showing their biased behaviour to Indian players, no probelm with BCCI. 4. Consistent poor decisions against Sachin (by umpires), no mention by BCCI. 5. Reception of Sledging (which is bad anyway) by Indians versus by Aussies, English or even Newzealanders. ICC felt that these countries are made to sledge but not slave Indians, BCCI nothing to do with that. 6. No match refree in ICC list (Srinath is a mere formality), no issues with BCCI.
Concerns are how to make money, how to reward associations who vote for them, how to seel the game, how to keep thier offices.
Poor Indian public. They will always remain poor and pathetic, media and BCCI will play arund them.
1. ICC CODE OF CONDUCT FOR PLAYERS & TEAM OFFICIALS (Amended at Executive Board Meeting March 2007 and June 2007) C. Rules of Conduct %u2013 Offences and Penalties. CC. Rules of Conduct %u2013 Offences and Penalties %u2013 (supplemental) Level 1 1.4 Using language that is obscene, offensive or insulting and/or the making of an obscene gesture Level 2 2.8 Using language that is obscene, offensive or of a seriously insulting nature to another Player,umpire, Referee, Team Official or spectator. (It is acknowledged that there will be verbal exchanges between Players in the course of play. Rather than seeking to eliminate these exchanges entirely, umpires will look to lay charges when this falls below an acceptable standard. In this instance, language will be interpreted to include gestures). Level 3 and 4 3.3 / 4.4 Using language or gestures that offends, insults, humiliates, intimidates, threatens, disparages or vilifies another person on the basis of that person%u2019s race, religion, gender, colour, descent or national or ethnic origin
Australians should read this rule and practice it too along with others from England, New Zealand and South Africa before they can accuse Asians. ICC too should read this again and none of these guys understand the meaning we Indians can teach them.

In ICC code book, comments from White to black or brown didnt call as racism, it is called only game spirit. Comments from brown/black to white or black to black or brown to black is called as racism. First the ICC should learn how to control teams which makes abusive statement.
