This punishment is given only becoz aussies have lost 1st match n india has won...so the chances for aussies to enter semi finals are getting jeopardised......so they called aussie director to do something
Same thing used to happen in ICC when malcom speed or reed aussie was the president of icc....he took desicions to benefit aussies to improve their winning record.....Non white hockey countries shud join hands as they have done in cricket...
This is very harsh and is against sportmanship.Looks like Chappel relative is dictating terms.God give courage to our indian team to beat these racist 5-0!!!!
These Aussies need to be taught a lesson, Indian cricketers did it and now hockey guys will do the same. These oldie frustrated refrees think this is the only way Aussies have a chance and want to see it win before they hit the grave....sorry dude, next life may be..

I saw the video repeated many times on TV channels today. There was nothing wrong that Shivendra did. He overtook the Pak player and it was all a fair game.
Time and again FIH has been conspiring against Indian Hockey team and this one will not be tolerated. Indian Coach has severely criticized the decision and Hockey India has appealed against this id1otic decision.
I am a great fan of Indian team and sincerely hope that Shivendra's suspension is revoked and he plays today's most critical match against Australia.
Team India, please hit hard against this sinister decision, hit back hard and continue the same form to win all matches in this World cup.
The england match showed aussies are getting caught red handed by the video referal system. The aussie coach Charles would prefer that there is no video referals, 'cause he says, it goes against his team. This simply means his team has a lesser chance of cheating.
Shivendra is a talented player and punishing him for 3 matches that too Pak team not protesting is a REAL SURPRISE.Still the whole Indian team is working as a well oiled machine and am proud that PENALTY CORNERS conversion by us is an added asset and sure that semifinals are now our destination and who knows the whole of India will be singing CHAK DE on getting the world cup crown.India team is capable of downing every team coming in its way.The lost glory & pride is bound to come.
Dont worry ! If it is intentionally done, we will win against Ausi. Be honest, play a true and honest game with the Desire to route Ausi. Chak De India :) Do it, we are with you !
