icc even though, is biased, unfair, dishonest to india & without integrity, but it should be loyal to cricket & show a bit of honesty & should investigate the match fixing by ponting & umpires who were playing in complete setting with only one agenda of winning the match by hook & crook & create australian history. icc should stop its double standards if it has to come clean & prove one billion cricket frenzy indians that they are wrong in considering icc & speed, as biased, unfair, unreasonable, dishonest, have taken bribe/ money/ favours/etc (all or any of them or anything else) from cricket australia to be with them, what ever CHEATING MATCH FIXING they wish to do to create world record. icc should immediately ban buckner, ponting, benson, symonds, hogg, clarke if it wants to prove that it is an honest, just, fair, body & not a puppet in the hands of CA, WI board. it should not shy from calling corrupt players corrupt. what stake it has in protecting bucker, benson, proctor, ponting, symonds, clarke, hogg is for everyone to guess, have they bribed icc, have they offered favours in past or future, or what considereation is there for icc to close its eyes, where was their sportsman spirit in the 2nd test, is everyone in the world wants to know. icc should set precedence that it is above CA, WI Board & all corrupt players, that whatever be their number, it is with truth & only truth & should declare india winner of the 2nd test because of wrong means adopted by aussies i

I fully endorsed the following posting earlier made by BoadBoy justifying the match was fixed by Rickery Ponting,
Following are the incidents which can be used as proof of fixing
1. 9 Incorrect Umpires Decision
2. Throwing away Bucknor out of next test match
3. Booking "So Called Racist Remarks" against Harbhajan to divert attention of world from MATCH FIXING to some other issuue.
4. Umpire asking Rickey Ponting for making his decision of "Out" for Sourav Ganguly.
RE:Ponting, buckner symonds benson clarke should be banned
by mmspm on Jan 11, 2008 07:32 PM
Ban Ponting & Clark on the basis of 2003 incident of aus/pak series
Ban Symonds for wrong allegation on Harbhajan
Ban both umpires Bucknor and Benson for their willian behaviour
Ban match refree proctor for not taking any fruitfull step from 1st of the series for umpires blunders and not took any step on ponting and clark regarding their catches
Ban everyone who fails to walk for a decision which is given out.
Ban everyone who appeals for any decision which is given not-out.

@Kabeer
1. ausies r not responsible but aussie cricket board, captain, umpires and icc r responsible.
2. yuvraj's decision was not out. he didnt knick the ball to slip and stood though knowing he knick the ball just like clark.
3. 3rd umpires r provided for cricket matches officially to resolve issues and to clear uncertainties. As it is there in official manner it has to be used.
If u r anti-indian or australian sh...ut ur ba...ck and mind ur business. If u r Indian get out of the country right now.
Now dont say who am i to say getout to u. Indian constitution have provided right to act against anti-nationalist for all citizens of India. this right is one among 10 duties and 10 rights provided to citizens of India.

haik kabeer, his nationalism transcends toleration beyond injustice to our national team and injustice to national team player.
if ur nationalism transcends beyond a game of cricket and u r not bothered about this then shut ur back or whatever and mind ur business. we feel very bad about injustice happened to our team. we r not just bugging here, we mailed to ICC & BCCI about our views and our protest. I am one among them.

reminds of Shaw- "Patriotism is your conviction that this country is superior to all other countries because you were born in it".
That said, Kabeer, if you're not blinded by your patriotism you wouldn't be frequenting indian chat boards trying to defend your countrymen, masquerading as an indian wearing objectivity on your sleeves.

Hello mmspm I think you heard about my post. Just i thought that @Kabeer & mmspm is a same login man. So don't take tension.
kumble is a gentleman, he has explained in clear words, what his intent was and what he stood for. i beleive thats what the aussie blokes in this forum want, and thats what the team wanted, complete transparency and squeaky clean explanation. further he even said that his apologies and efforts/pains to continue with the game was met with a nought.
looks like symonds is upto some mischief here, plain and simple. for ponting, what better time to get rid of his nemesis bhajji, now he'd not have to play bhajji, and he'd get to score some runs! cool.
if any of the trolls come around giving some of their logic here. that'd be fun. it'd just expose their duplicity. cos so far theyve been shielding under the "look, the indians havent comeout and explained themselves, thats why they are guilty" none of that crap anymore.
RE:I'm glad Kumble stepped out of the BCCI gag and explained it for us
by Ian Chappell on Jan 11, 2008 05:40 PM
Yes mate, I must say Ponting started a wrong trend in world cricket by going to match referee for complain which could have been sorted out by calm talks with Kumble. Section 3.3 clearly said that you can not even "INSULT" oposition player on the field leave alone RECISM or ABUSE words!! Ponting really made the life difficult for his boys because from now on they can't use there "Mental Disintegration Tactic" on the field!!
RE:I'm glad Kumble stepped out of the BCCI gag and explained it for us

perhaps you have not read what kumble had to say about bhajji and the alleged claim. i belive kumble, you can latch on to the aussie "concocted" version.

haha, cant take a bit of a sarcasm ? 30 runs was mighty tough on that crumbling pitch, just like clarke swept the indians in one over on a 5th day pitch. the century was sarcastic.
RE:People lile Ashish
by TJ on Jan 11, 2008 06:39 PM
I hope your cerebellum would understand that just 30 runs were needed for victory at that stage. If you agree that 5 indian wickets couldn't resist for under 30 overs in a flat pitch, then probably i agree that half dozen more would need for Hauritz to score a century (which wasn't the need of hour at all)
RE:RE:People lile Ashish
by raj on Jan 11, 2008 07:00 PM
:) well, i sure wish the indian pace attack was in good condition and form, would have been a cracker of a contest, even though indians arent used to hard surfaces. too bad zaheer, munaf arent playing. its always good to see a straight contest. i love any team visiting australia, and love supporting the under dogs :) its a keen contest, and like bhajji said, "Oz brings the best out of you". unfortunately, he might not be playing this test, if things go the aussie way!

RE:People lile Ashish

From Wikipedia ...
The term Macaulay's Children is used to refer to people born of Indian ancestry who adopt Western culture as a lifestyle, or display attitudes influenced by colonisers. The term is usually used in a derogatory fashion, and the connotation is one of disloyalty to one's country and one's heritage. This frame of mind or attitude is also referred to as Macaulayism The passage to which the term refers is from his Minute on Indian Education, delivered in 1835. It reads,
%u201CIt is impossible for us, with our limited means, to attempt to educate the body of the people. We must at present do our best to form a class who may be interpreters between us and the millions whom we govern; a class of persons, Indian in blood and colour, but English in taste, in opinions, in morals, and in intellect. To that class we may leave it to refine the vernacular dialects of the country, to enrich those dialects with terms of science borrowed from the Western nomenclature, and to render them by degrees fit vehicles for conveying knowledge to the great mass of the population."

No mate Chihahua. You are wrong here. This is not about whites or blacks. This is about justice and I must say Aussies are better team then India as far as skills level is concerned and they make better strategies to win the game. Yes I didn't like Ponting and his mates behaviour on the field but as soon as they rectify it they will show India that who is the BOSS.
RE:People lile Ashish
by raj on Jan 11, 2008 05:36 PM
well, they can show who's the boss already, but it wont be in the onfield behaviour department.
they are good as a team. they are already ahead in the game for sure. they are a great outfit, good training, great facility, no politics in selection, good talent grooming, great team management. no wonder australia is doing good for so many years.

This is not about justice, not the way you put it.. The Aussie team of today is about winning at all costs..

RE:RE:People lile Ashish
by raj on Jan 11, 2008 06:08 PM
yeah, i remember that match very clearly. was very amusing for me to see to do a complete U-turn of sorts. when clarke got those magical figures, indians dint complain about the pitch, and the aussie team hailed clarke's efforts as a miracle.
but when aussie team got ripped off subsequently, the entire aussie side, fans et al, cried hoarse. was a lot of fun to watch :) that was sheer hypocrisy - even if that was one F-ucked pitch (indians as well as the board did apologise for the pitch, and was accepted that its bad for cricket, the low scores and all). but im still amused, glad that you brought up that point :D
RE:RE:People lile Ashish

kumble did good. well, on field behaviour of ponting is anythign but whats expected of a captain of a winnigest side of test cricket. especially since the aussie blokes make so much of it. but dude, leave the off-field life to him, dont rake it. thats his private life, he can live as he pleases. of course, thats not whats expected of a role model. but then, he's hardly a diplomat, or an ambassador of a game for sure. maybe in his country where the culture's different. what matters for the rest of us outside of OZ is his on field behavior.
