The secret of wining record test is now open. Target some one like Bhajji. Fixing a match with oponent team is costlier then fix two umpairs. No doubt Aus. is the strogest team in the world in terms of cheating. Ausis know they can't beat the sansation of GANGULI, SACHIN, DRAVID unless they cheat.

Hello Mr. On:
Pardon me, but was the match fixed with the two "umpairs"?
I think the Indian team did a better job of fixing it. The umpires had spared us the last 3 wickets for some reason with only 2 overs to negotiate....
If you need to FIND a match fixing theory, then how is the above one? Bhajji, RP Singh and Ishant Sharma fixed the match with the Aussies and got out within 5 balls...
He has led his team to 2 WORLD CUP WINS,that too in Neutral venue without any chance for your complains in it and that too without losing a single match
He has been continuing the winning trend in Test matches as well except for Ashes defeat(a very close one at that)he hasnt lost any Test series so far
He is not like Steve Waugh to back down when given back as good as he gives and is lot smarter and shrewed that he plays without giving follow on etc and knows when to not use Pride in his judgements
This is pure jealousy
Has any Indian player never claimed a Bump Catch or sledged,even recently in England Dhoni claimed one and even in this series there were a few.And Ponting is confident personified whereas our captain is still a Chicken unlike Ganguly and so far hasnt said openly about umpiring and asking us to see it as it is...

Well put. Jeal;ousy does play a part. Ad people have got tired watching the Aussies dominate world cicket. I strongly feel that only the unpredicatble Pakistanis can throw a real challenge to them. watch out when they tour pakistan later this year. they are going to have the livingd daylights beat out of them. Wonder why the Windies got so many fanswhen under Lloyd...must be the aura of their personalities and their way of celbrating. Also the applauset that the team shows when an opponent scores a centruy or bowls well... Aussies lack that

You are absolutely WRONG raman.Never has anybody complained about the Westindian team led by Clive Loyd.Clive also won 2 worldcups.He also led his team to test series wins accross the globe during the late 70s and the 80s.People accross the world enjoyed watching them play.Thats because they played attractive cricket with INTEGRITY AND DIGNITY.Ponting and co lack these 2 vital ingredients which is the reaso why people with selfrespect HATE them.HENCE MY DEAR RAMAN THE ISSUE IS NOT PURE JEALOUSY AS YOU SUGGESTED.THE ISSUE IS GIVING BACK TO THE AUSSIES WHAT THEY DESERVE....

I accept Ramans word mostly. We Indians are complaining that becos of those umpiring errors only we lost... What about other 7 wickets who didn't performed well... We are angry only becos we lost the test match... This much hype would not be there if the match went to draw... Next year you will not see how the Aus won the match becos the record will only show Aus are best... So if we have asked to cancel the match records and ask to have rematch that would be a fair deal... Changing umpire will do nothing...

Or may be the real reason is that, just because you won two straight world cups without a loss and you are close to break a world record for consecutive wins, it doesnt mean that you can do anything..... You will still be penalized for you misdoings....

well said Muthu.. You could have won 10 world Cup. but you should have some good manner.. you should respect the game.. Bloody Ponting.. Hopefully time will change very soon.. Monkey australians will be defeated by every team in the world..

Ricky Ponting and Andrew Symonds credited their wives for the victory in the Sydney Test. Their wives did a fantastic blow job for bith Mark Benson & Steve Bucknor. Said Ponting" My wife is now working on Bowdie for the Perth test.
why so much of fuss is being created over club cricket ? BCCI has said in the supreme court that it is a private club and not governed by Indian government.. so why raise temperatures and get agitated over a cricket match, some accusations, a defeat and some arbit decisions ? Is nothing else worthwhile happenning in this country or the world , that all media is monopolised by this one issue ? tomorrow would they cover it the same way if some member of lions club of chinchpokli gets racially abused by some member of the rotary club of ghatkopar !!! what a waste of life !! humans indeed have short memory and would go to any extent to have cheap thrills/highs. WHY SUCH A HULLOBULLOO OVER CLUB CRICKET.. THESE PLAYERS ARE NOT REPRESENTING INDIA.. BUT CLUB BCCI..and this is as per the admission of BCCI itself..

sorry brother but i wud not agree with u there. these people playing for bcci club are representing india (our country), and we are the same people who still get happy wen we think of the '83 world cup india won, we are the same people who watched every single match of T20 and were thrilled wit joy wen india won it. we are the same people who were happy to c bhaichung bhutia go and play for a C devision club in england. we are the same people who accuse these players for their wrongs cuz we know they are representing our country and we have set our hopes on them cuz no matter what happens...we beileve in them. no one can say wat d outcome of this match had been if v had seen fair umpiring but how do u accept us to just quitely accept it. i don know how u look at it but i c it being targeted towards my country.
and just to remind u...this aint d first time v r facing umpiring issue in Aus...I personally had a strong liking towards Aus but after wat v ve seen, i feel this whole Bhajji isuue is brought up by Ponting to overshadow the umpiring flaws during this match. I am yet to read anywhere wat Symonds had said to Bhajji dat made him call a 'monkey'...Symonds says wen Bhajji patted on Lee's backside, he went n said sumthing to bhajji..wat was dat? if v all get to hear wat bhajji had said, y not wat symonds said? i think dats fair enough to ask. on a personal note, i think Aussies ve forgotten wat sports man spirit is...and no sport can be played without spirit....dere is no l

Even if it is not coming directely under Indian State, But BCCI is indian body governed by Indian trust & Charities laws,byelaws & rules . Also if anybody abuses any Indian institution or individual unfairly we have to be united as a nation and fight. Understand Patriot.

Bumpty, I was going to Report Abuse for your posting, on grounds of irrelevance and obscenity, as it breaches Rediff terms. But then I thought, no, I'll let everyone see your level of your debating and reason. Your posts are consistently based on hate.
All you so called lawyers should know that "case studies" can be very useful and the guilty should be punished especially when the whole world has see past captains banned for being guilty of "claiming catch illegally"
Mr. Procter credibility and the "so called integrity" of the Australian captain has gone for a toss.
Some people are laughing at the way he has made statements after the game!
Hi every one, I am one among the billion Asian who watch the cricket with my heart for that matter all the Asians. But what is going on I presume that for victory these aussies will go to the ultimate i.e destroying the cricket.
I think the cricket will die if the aussies continues to allowed to play. Ban them right now for the sake of cricket
In this whole issue, everyone is worried umpiring and Harbhajan's Ban.But no one is getting even nearer to the root the situation.Actually Ricky Ponting never ever wanted to miss out on this occasion because this was gonna create a world redord.That is why this whole drama began.In the first test he took a catch in the slips and said it was not clean.This means "we are world champions and you can trust us".Is he an umpire? I think BCCI should demand that this match should be REMOVED from the record books and should not be counted as it was not cricket match. The second thing Ponting should be BANNED not Bajji because of Ponting bevahour on the field.

As per Rule C2 (Note 5.1) of ICC Code of Conduct....Ponting, Clarke and Symonds are (WITH PROOF) GUILTY OF ACTING IN CONTRARY TO THE SPIRIT OF THE GAME.
THEY SHOULD BE BANNED FOR A MAXIMUM OF 4 TESTS OR 8 ODIs
