Since you wanted Oz media to write when Indians were being hit, then you obviously also want the English media right now to write against Koertzen's poor decisions too.... right?.... :)

Chappell - limitless patriotism and racism
by Devdutt Nayak on Jul 21, 2009 09:50 AM  | Hide replies


limitless patriotism, greed for records (not hunger for records, mind you) resulted in Greg Chappell becoming India's coach just in time for the World Cup 2007 to destroy the Indian team.

That alone is proof that they were shit scared about Dada and his men.

They robbed the 2007 World Cup from us and we robbed the game from them - IPL, ICL, Twenty20.

If and when all their sins come back to haunt them, it will be a pitiable state for Aussies, much like the West Indies before Gayle and Bravo organised a renaissance.

Their super-players were Warne and McGrath.
Remove those two and the team is very much beatable.

There is lot of difference between the two 'incidents'. In this match there were two umpiring 'errors' which were simply error of judgement and not motivated to bring defeat to any team.

Whereas in Sydney, all acts were motivated to increase the continuous run of Test Wins by Australia to match existing record and create a new record.

Australian player 'CLAIMED' a bump catch, fully aware it is a bump catch. If you had watched the last 2 hours of the Sydney match, you would have seen how low Australians and Steve Bucknor stooped to steal a win. Otherwise the match was heading for a draw. Umpires were 'FORCED' into errors by Aussie tactics.
So Indian reaction at that time was FULLY JUSIFIED AND WARRANTED.
Just keep in mind what happened in Next Test, where India was supposed to be defeated soundly, but wnet on to win. Without foul tactics and Bucknor, Aussies were reduced to club cricket level.

When did BCCI threatened to cancel series unless Bucknor is sacked, AgainstPseudos? :) What I have heard is that BCCI filed an official complaint to ICC against Bucknor citing the wrong umpiring decisions by him lately and India being mostly at the receiving end. BCCI threatened to pull out of series if the three test match ban slapped on Harbhajan by match referee Procter on racism charges was going to be implemented in Perth Test before the decision was made on his appeal. Maybe I am wrong. You are the more informed one and most intelligent of all people here.

I never said whatever BCCI did was right? They just used the ICC rules where a cricket board can complain when the performance of an umpire was not upto the standard. It was ICC executive board who found that claim made by BCCI was right and majority voted for it. CA can do it if it feels so. As CA is more mature board ( I always agree with you on that issue, AgainstPseudos) they may not be doing it.
Bhajji issue, its a well known fact that BCCI always stands by its players (remember the series in South Africa in 2001) when it comes to match ban. That CA is not doing it is the exact reason why Symonds and Ponting had so much problems with CA during those period. But I don't want to judge whether BCCI is right or not on this issue. Its the BCCI executive board decision. You can agree or disagree and everyone is entitled to interpret it in their own way. I just said the facts that I know.
I have always felt that I am a fool. So how can I make such a claim infront of a genius like you AgainstPsuedos? God will never forgive me, will He?

For you Kind Information, the tour call off was after the Harbhajan Episode and not after Sydney. And here, the umpires went wrong, not the players. Aussie players were claiming grassed catches (Ricky Ponting), behaving as if he is the on field umpire ( Ricky Ponting ) and even after having a big nick, were behaving as if he didn't nick ( Micheal Clarke ). So overall it were the players who were not playing in the spirit of the game and Kumble was right in pointing it in the press conference.

And about being cry baby, what was Ponting doing after the first drawn test of Ashes at Cardiff, when he himself was crying over the time wasting gimmicks of England? Grow up man.

I agree with you on that fact. Kumble needn't have been that emotional in that post-match conference. After all this is just a game of cricket. I never thought that Kumble was a captaincy material. But at that time, he became captain, when Dravid suddenly resigned as captain and Gavaskar and Shastri thought that Dhoni was not mature enough to be a Test captain.

Mr Bucknor was hugely missed by Ponting in absense of ,Bradman,Lille,Thommo, Ian Chappel,Our own desi Greg,Waugh bros,Warne and Mcgrath and few others.
Aussi board has flown a charter plane to West indies to get Mr bucknor fit for third test least England players may defeat them again.
They tried to contact one more joker mr....of new zealand who was also a member of the "GREAT AUSSIE TEAM" of PONTING.
Punter has made a special call to bucknor and also said he is willing to pay all his IPL gains to bucknor for officiating in the Third test ( Source Rediff special correspondant from Lords )

HV:

;-).... but the fact remains that none of the parties (including the Aussies after Lord's 2009) created the usual ruckus BCCI did to get Bucknor sacked.... :)

Tells you something??.... :)

Seems that u r forgetting few incidents other than the sydney tests :
Just to give few
1. Australia vs Sri Lanka @ WACA 15 February 2008 - symonds grassed catch. this was just after the Sydney episod, and still the Aussies didn't learn anything from it.
2. AUS v NZL 1st ODI - 2009-02-01 at Perth.
There are few others, which you insist can be mailed to you separately . ;-)
