Australia did not sink India. The umpires defeated India. No team can win if 5 or 6 decisions against them. Bad sportsmanship by Aussies. Ponting is unable to digest the fact that he has become Bhajji's bunny. Shame on him. He caused Bhajji removal from the team. Liar and full of jealousy. First he said he is not Bhajji's bunny. Second he said Sachin will not score. Both did not happen. Now his successor Clark is learning to take his mantle by lying. He cannot fool the TV futtage. Shame on Aussies.

Get real. You lot simply don't play cricket at the same level as Australia. Your fielding is terrible, your running between wickets is poor, and as for Kumble's field settings on Sunday, an absolute joke. Getting 333 of 72 overs is not mission impossible. India didn't even try, for that reason alone you deserved to loose.

Who said India's fielding was terrible? Look when Indian's are taking catches these are not given out but when Aussies are not taking catches these are being given out. And in test match chasing 333 in 72 overs when umpires are against you, it is really impossible and also foolish to chase. Had the umpiring been proper the target might have been just 150 instead of 333. Look at Dravid,Ganguly, they were given out when they were not out, so tell me who will chase the total,Anil Kumble? Ya we surely deserved to lose as we did not bribe the umpires.

Fielding isn't just about taking catches, its cutting off runs, creating pressure, you know, like Australia. With the batting line up India's got 333 off 72 is not impossible, difficult maybe, but certainly not impossible. Anil Kumble has been by far your best player, he showed a lot of grit both as batsman and bowler. India has a shabby work ethic and does not do the 1 percent things at all. If your fielding and running between the wickets was better you may start to be more competitive. As long as you hold those outdated concepts that fielding and scoring rate are not important in the modern game, you won't touch AUstralia. If you have an opportunity look at how the Australians fielded on Sunday, they threw themselves at the ball to stop boundries, even though it wasn't necessary. Thats how hungry they are to win. India can't be bothered, its too much hard work.
YES, such umpires should be sacked first they are not fit for it proffecionally nor by the spirit of the game.Shame on them it was not just one or two mistake.So the motive is clear......
The Australians and the two umpires are in just finishing their piss in a toilet. Then the lyrics goes like this for a rap tune. All the players are on rap tune.
Ponting: We have had very good piss, Buknor and Mike , why dont you both give Indians a piss
Buknor We will do it mate provided you fill in our plate. Symonds : Sure , no problem Steve. We will see that your plate is full.
Bucknor : I am too old too lend my .... Surely , I can raise a finger for a cause. Enter Benson raising his finger. Ponting is excited and sings, Benson is already at it after having a glorious shit. He Ho
Benson; Sure , I seek your advice , but surely Symonds will never be out , even if he is out. Bucknor does a Bob Marley jig and sings Benson is stiff he cannot jig , but surely a match he can rig. He , Ho He ho.
Benson sings : The money must be in cash and not in cheque. You very well know the rules.
Ponting and the Australian team sing in chorus You are our God's in the Cricket Pitch, you will get it in cash without a stitch

Wow that was really nice. Shame of Bucknor,Benson and the Aussies who have won the match only because of these two stupid umpires. Dont worry India,you have not lost the match actually.
it took three umpires, 9 atrocious decisions, 3 lifes to symonds, 2 lifes to ponting, and 2 bluffings all these and they still couldnt beat india until the last two overs of a 5 day test. once v saw how our freedom fighters fought and said vandemataram till the last breath now i am cing our cricketers. if india had goten even 20% of the previliges aus got, india would hav beaten them with in 2 days. wat say guys??

thanks guys but wats the point in posting blogs and venting our anger like this? lets do something y not flood Australian cricket board website or icc website wid our protest if v indians take to it i think thr websites ll b down in no time?? we can b heard anyone wid me???
Team India should banned the series and back to india.Character less ausis.Panting dont know how to play againest Bajjee.Ponting not at all a caption at all.All over world along with team india except ausis.Now they never dare to play cricket againest srilanka and india home ground.BCCI and all senior cricketers should fight this empiring and ausis bad behavior.
it was evident from the last oz series that umpires bucknor and billy would do anything to provide victory to oz. sachin got three rough decisions then;damien martyn was not given out on a no of times in the sydney test thereby ensuring that india would not win series. i suppose bcci too has role in selecting umpires for the series. why didn't they take up earlier instances of bucknor in oz and for that matter everywhere and insist that he should not do umpiring in the series? there were unpires like rudy who may make mistakes but won't play for oz.
we should understand one thing. this bcci never care for india's interest. see their first reaction on bhajji issue-the series won't be called off! ( even if indian players are ridiculed) it is big time we start encouraging ICL and boycott bcci shows as far as possible. after all, wild bufallos can't be killed by nails. you need a devil to finish off this bcci demons!

Austrlians are cowards, they like to dish it out to people but cant take it when someone gives it back to them.
Make no mistake - this trumped up charge against Harbhajan is nothing but an excuse for Ponting to avoid playing him in the next 2 test matches. Same way they did to Murlitharan. Any bowler they cant play, they make up something to put them out of the series.
Either through racist crowds or some other thing.
Australians are cowards, they cant face tough situations outside their little community.
They cant face the fact that Harbhajan is making Ricky Ponting look like a school kid in front of his own people.

Team India should banned the series and back to india.Character less ausis.Panting dont know how to play againest Bajjee.Steve Waugh deseve 16 row win and but ponting not at all a right person for that

Harbharjan is not the bowler he once was. He has seen off Ricky Ponting, and good on him for doing so, but outside that his bowling performance has been very ordinary. Muralitharan was a part of the team that got demolished by Australia just before India arrived. The Indian team has no fight in them, they didn't even try to win. How can you call Australia cowards, when you didn't even try. 333 off 72 overs with Tendulkar and Laxman, I'd back myself anyday. The fact that India lost is no disgrace, just the way they lost, they gave up... cowards.

Im calling them cowards because they are using mind games and legal tactics against the one bowler who they fear - Harbhajan !
Instead of having the cojons of facing him on the field they r resorting to this ridiculous racism charge to have him out of the series, so that Ponting can continue to be compared to Bradman (the biggest joke of the century).
They dont have the guts to take him on for the rest of the series at home. Thats why they are cowards.
They know he took 32 wickets in a series against them in 2001, and he does have the wood on Ponting, which is why they are cowards !
Australians complaining about racism ??? Give me a break !!!! For God sake !!
Most Australians dont even consider racism to be a bad thing, let alone be complaining about it !!
The only purpose of this series is to humiliate India and Indians through legalities to take revenge for what happened to Symonds in India !!
And I dont want my country humiliated just for money or entertainment, which is why this tour should be called off !!
And they couldnt do it outside their home, they are only able to intimidate people in their own backyard, which is why Im calling them cowards !
Can Australia go to Pakistan and accuse a Pakistani of racism in Lahore or Karachi ???
No !! Cos they know they wont come back alive.
They can only do this in the safety of their own backyard, in the safety of their moms and wives, thats why they are and should be called COWARDS !!!

I don't get you. The Australians lodged a complaint, that complaint was heard and determined by the officials set up by the ICC to determine such things. They found against Harbhajan. An appeal is being lodged, until that appeal is heard Harbhajan will play. Harbhajan will only be suspended if the appeal is denied. Its up to the officials concerned at the end of the day to make those determinations. In recent years all international sporting boards have been eager to eliminate racisim from their respective sports and have taken a zero tolerance policy. As far as a conspiracy theory in relation to Ponting goes, you must be off your respective nuts. Harbhajan has got Ponting in this series, and good on him for doing so. But I cannot believe that a sportsman of Pontings calibre would want to eliminate his competitor any where but on the field. You may just have to contemplate that things were said, that in the modern era should not have been said, and it is up to the officials to determine, what if any penatly is required. I for one, having seen the incident on the television, am certain that something was said, the reaction of Hayden and Simons was dismissive and they seemed upset. That being said its in the hands of the duly appointed umpire, and we all await their decision. If Harbhajan is foud guilty then he must be a man and take his punishment, and India must do the same, otherwise you're just a bunch of cowards.
