Once a camel baby asked her mother , why have we hump on our back ? Mother replied that it helps them to store water. Why do we have spongy feet? Asked baby. It helps to walk better in desert, was the answer. Why do we have so big eyelids? Was the next question. It protects them from desert hurricanes. Then what are we doing in the zoo? So the question is , if hayden is so fond of boxing, why is he playing cricket? I am sure our boxers are good enough to take care of him than probably he would have challenged them for cricket.
Ishant Sharma has earned name and fame on his own at the age of 19 all over the world (including AUSTRALIA). Had any of the Indian heard of anything like 'HAYDEN' 17 years back (when hayden was 19 years old)??? I doubt.... And if yes, they might be thinking that it is another breed to some sort of a dirty animal like donkey or pig

loved yr article. wud die 2 see haydens expression if he ever reads this. thumbs up 2 u
The aussies have free use of words like F---, motherf-----,b------- and so on on the field. These words are those that i have never uttered in anger against anyone all my life. They are edited out of movies and even discussion boards. I definitely wouldn't like my kids to learn them. But there is only one place in the media where kids can learn it--watching a match involving Australia. Ok i admit it is in their culture to use such words under the banner of sledging and isnt thought of as offensive in their country. But why do we have to expose our culture to such abuse? So my view is sledging or not all abusive words should be banned in public places especially on a sport that is being televised. You can sledge without being abusive. Hogg may think calling the Indians B------ is light hearted banter but abuse is abuse. I feel it should be banned on the cricket filed-do all u can in private but please please not in public view. And then start explaining in the papers why you used that word. All abusing should be banned and invite heavy penalties. Playing hard doesn't give the license to abuse fellow players and make them angry so that they reply back and get punished--the inciters should be punished too.

You have never watched Indian players abusing? Hindi profanity is part of our culture too, you dimwit. The indian players not such sporting champs either. while trying to be good sportsmen, they end up looking like wimps on the field. Showing aggression is one thing...and being able to use that aggression to take wickets is another. not cry like a baby when someone calls you a "mad boy" or whatever. You practice harder to make a point. Not join a dance show to shake your pansy ass in front of your home crowd.
As you scold Ishant Bloody Indian but then clarified that you just praised him as WELL BOLD LITTLE CHAMP.. I think it is not your mistake.... it is due to hybridisation. Your father and mother as well as Cricket Australia never teach you any lesson. Now You are signed for IPL and here you will learn a good lesson of Gandhism (i.e. non-violent punishment). You are not at all sportive. You are a lier World knows. Forecast : You must be debarred from Cricket Australia in near future for your severe misbehaviour.
