I always was of the opinion that cricket is a game involving 11 players on each team...
But all of you need to admit, it is difficult if not impossible to win when you are playing against a team of 14 players ( 11 plus Benson, Bucknor and the 3rd Umpire ).
Ideally ICC should have the match categorized as no-result if someone care two hoods about the sanctity of the game..
Well...few wrong decisions can bring down the morale of players but I think Indian team did not perform up to the mark.We should stand abide with Bhajji and also held ourself responsible for losing the match...Some of our players performance was also disappointing.

Yes I absolutely agree with you. Australians have showed that they don't like to be beaten and for that matter they can do anything to create records. absolutely rubbish display of sportsmanship by Australia.
The second test match should be treeted as no match and the result should not be counted. The future "out" decisions should be refered to the third umpire only. The wrong doing umpire should be penalised and banned rather than Harbajan.
I appeal to BCCI to stop being coward and ask the team to come back. Let us show that we are cricket worlds economic superpower by banning all the aussie players to act in india and to play in IPL. Let us end ties with Cricket australia. These acts will show that BCCI is not interested in making money at the cost of Indias PRIDE and millions of indian fans self respect. If BCCI blunders now then no indian fan will forgive them. As Mr Siddhu said that the country's pride is far bigger than a cricket series. BCCI should only agree to continue if the aussie players are penalised heavily by ICC for making false allegation against bhajji, banning the 3 umpires for life and declaring sydney test as either won by india or as unofficial. Nothing less should be accepted by BCCI otherwise no indian cricket fan will ever forgive them.
