F**K OFF. we are better off being third world contry. At least our ancestors were no criminals who were deported to australia as a part of punishment. aussie are bad loosers. they always try to diminiss the opponent win and can often stoop to levels which are below anybody's dignity to take attention off their poor perdormance

Do u want to Say Australia is an advanced country where theri prime minister talks low about Muralidharan even after ICC cleared him. Have you see any Indian ministers taking sides in sports? Be neutral while making statements. You know only comments made to Symonds but why do you ignore the shameful Aussies behavior everytime on the field in front of cameras? I remember Mike Slater barking on Dravid about a catch after flooring (as confirmed by TV's). I remember Chappel asking his brother to do Underarm bowling. I also remember Kim hughes crying and retiring simply because of continuous ridiculing from Chappel brothers. I also remember Border's team making vulgar gestures to Chetan Sharma in the tied test match.

I have always admired Mr. Hayden's will to win. But Australian teams recent loss to India seems to have brought fore their true facet. It seems that Mr. Hayden has no respect for anyone and wants to win at all cost. His comments about India seems to have brought forward the deep rooted racist mentality that may have been hidden from the public and had came fore on such a bitter loss. I know its tough loosing but I did not excepted him to be such a sore looser. And what was he thinking earlier when he had challenged one Ishant Sharma to a BOXING match instead of setting the things on the cricket field. I know that we Indians are not saints either but these comments from such a senior player has definitely brought the game and sportsmanship in dispute.
