I watched the whole episode live yesterday. Though i am neutral, however, i strongly feel that Mitchell Johnson should have been punished under level 4 of the ICC code of conduct. There was NO physical contact till that point which made things extremely nasty. Chis Broad, the match referee came up with a bizarre punishment ideally to suit the Aussies...i hope the West Indies give theme a fitting reply by thrashing them in this match!

its not white or black, its because aus is a strong fighting team and everyone hates that. everyone wants to be like them but cant, agression is a new game plan of every team who play against AUS or wants to be like them but they cannot match it up with hardwork, talent and sheer will power.

yes, it is black or white, aus is not a fighting team, but wants to win matches by unfair means like abusing and sledging and accusing others, and finally getting away with it with a white match referee taking a call
The whole world watched on television what happended yesterday. If Benn got a suspension of 2 matches then Mitchell and Brad should have got alteast 4 matches suspension. ICC its time to sack Chris Broad as Match Refree. he is biased and the biggest racist in the cricketing world. Chris Gayle should have threatened walk out of the tour if the suspension is not taken back. We need people like Ranatunga and Inzy who have the guts to walk off. People time to react to such racist incidents. Shame on the Australians!!!! The next time they visit a Foreign country they will have to bear the brunt of the people
ausies are smart chap, they will first see who is match refree, who are the onground umpires etc. then they will strategise to unsettle the rythm of opponent player. They take game as a war and want to win at every cost even if it means going below the decency levels. Why they are afraid to open their mouth in India sub continent, thy know they will be exposed so they keep quite here.
this is almost a repeat of monkey fiasco. Aussie is "crook race" and there are umpteen to support them. It would be interesting to see windies response.

Haha.. anyone follwing the incident wont be surprised. And WI always supported their white masters, whenever there was an issue. Dont poke your nose in issues you have no idea about.
we all have to think what made the authorities taking such a onesided(almost) decision, is it race, is it the skin colour....guess what, if the same offfence is been done by a caucasian, the decision should have been different. it is wery wrong, and need to stopped forthwith. Dont worry mr Benn Sulaiman, people acknowledge you as an innocent victim of the modern day racism.

Well he has a track record of problems. So he is no innocent fellow. But the serial culprits got away as usual. They should have been punished properly as well.

Ricky and his crew thought that they will beat windies easley and they move on to paskistan, its not happing Ricky.... get ready for pakistan
He was the only brave from subcontinent (Ind/Pap/Sri/Ban) to stand against such injustice. When some white player argue (actually verbal fight) rest of our team members including captain just watch the show. Whether it is Ganguly, Dhoni, Inzamaam, Mahela...or whoso ever. Just we saw Sachin rescuing Bhajji with Symonds case. Even subcontinent umpires just stand muted. Arjuna, we need someone like you.
