Mike I agree there are always 2 sides to every story. but why it happens mostly AGAINST the visiting teams 2 australia? if Australia believe in fair game then why they go for sledging?? And why get irritated when other side gives reaction??? Why u provoke first?? Brett Lee havnt said anything but why Symonds get excited?? If its in his nature(As he told 2 a channel there), Mr Mike pls see the videos of previous matches and reply me...how many times Symonds given such UNWANTED support to his team mates???

I know ur not able 2 answer, I give the reason... australia doesnt deserve so many wins in the past and since their standard is not so well that they continue the winning streak....otherwise whats the need for sledging??? If its normal for u then why aussies get irritated when they taste their own dish???

There were no problems with the Sri Lankan tests. I think India is thin skinned, and has been caught out by its own hypocracy mate.

You aussies have pested Murlitharan all his life and now when it comes to Shaun Tait you are enraged just because a few new zealanders dared to criticize his action...aussies are the cheaters of the highest degree.

He's a chucker. But the ICC ruled his action legal so we abide by the umpires decision. India may want to take a leaf out of our book.

The bloody ICC is not playing in Murli's hands that it deems an action legal just for the sake of one bowler.The truth is that nothing has been proved against his action and you aussies can cry all your life complaining that he is a chucker while the rest of the world has already accepted that Murli is a better spinner than your lame Shane Warne.....
When Sreesanth has shown his aggressiveness against Aussies, all Indians called him monkey and now Indian team is suffering in Australia with all this controversies - bad sporstmanship, behaviour etc. from the side of Aussies, the ugly cheaters of World Cricket. Sreesanth is really a hero at this moment, since he have given enough to these shameful Aussies.

sorry...but I disagree...what should be done is ban sledging as it is the root cause of this issue. Then only we are ensured of a fair game

not to mention a bit of cheating and a couple of dubious catches. Stop whining you cry baby.
After watching the test match, some rules have to be incorporated by ICC to give the other teams a perfect clarification
(1) Ricky Ponting %u2013 (THE TRULY GENUINE CRICKETER OF THE CRICKET ERA AND WHOSE INTEGRITY SHOULD NOT BE DOUBTED) should be considered as the FOURTH UMPIRE. As per the new rules, FOURTH UMPIRE decision is final and will over ride any decisions taken by any other umpires. ON-FIELD umpires can seek the assistance of RICKY PONTING even if he is not on the field. This rule is to be made, so that every team should understand the importance of the FOURTH UMPIRE.
(2) While AUSTRALIAN TEAM is bowling, If the ball flies anywhere close to the AUSTRALIAN FIELDER(WITHIN 5 metre distance), the batsman is to be considered OUT irrelevant of whether the catch was taken cleanly or grassed. Any decision for further clarification should be sought from the FOURTH UMPIRE. This is made to ensure that the cricket is played with SPORTIVE SPIRIT by all the teams.
(3) While BATTING, AUSTRALIAN players will wait for the ON-FIELD UMPIRE decisions only (even if the catch goes to the FIFTH SLIP as the ball might not have touched the bat). Each AUSTRALIAN batsman has to be out FOUR TIMES (minimum) before he can return to the pavilion. In case of THE CRICKETER WITH INTEGRITY, this can be higher.
(4) UMPIRES should consider a huge bonus if an AUSTRALIAN player scores a century. Any wrong decisions can be ignored as they will be paid huge bonus and will receive the

This post is like the Indian cricket team. Same old faces, doing the same old things.
Clearly you don't possess the capacity for new thought!
(5) All AUSTRALIAN players are eligible to keep commenting about all players on the field and the OPPONENT TEAM should never comment as they will be spoiling the spirit of the AUSTRALIAN team. Any comments made in any other language are to be considered as RACIALISM only.
(6) MATCH REFREE decisions will be taken purely on the AUSTRALIAN TEAM advices only. Player views from the other teams decisions will not be considered for hearing. MATCH REFREES are to be given huge bonus if this rule is implemented.
(7) NO VISITING TEAM should plan to win in AUSTRALIA. This is to ensure that the sportive spirit of CRICKET is maintained.
(8) THE MOST IMPORTANT RULE: If any bowler gets RICKY PONTING - %u201CTHE UNDISPUTED CRICKETER WITH INTEGTIRY IN THE GAME OF CRICKET%u201D more than twice in a series, he will be banned for the REST OF THE SERIES. This is to ensure that the best batsman/Captain will be played to break records and create history in the game of CRICKET.
These rules will clarify better to all the teams VISITING AUSTRALIA.
