I can see it now, give it six months, you'll have India threatening to

BCCI, is the big bad bully that every cricket board can blame for all
their internal problems. Heaven forbid they look little more closely
and address the real problem or even fix it!
First the Aussie media blatantly holding BCCI responsible for the
Symonds/HS saga outcome!

Not in the least bit surprising considering the BCCI's ridiculous posturing.
I'd have been perfectly happy with a 'charge not proven' outcome, but the
BCCI's behaviour creates the perception that it influenced the outcome. If
they believed their man was innocent they had nothing to fear from the
appeals process and didn't need to issue tawdry threats.

Now apparently the problems in NZ Crcicket is also due to BCCI.

Do tell.

Nothing to do with Symonds saga... but, there are some people, you
take one look at them and you know that they are complete arses...
1. Andrew Symonds -- what is with him with jingoistic wicket
celebrations, white patch over the lips, and the crazy hair to boot
with and a continuous constipated look?
Quite frankly, Symonds is root cause of many problems. He seems to
think that because of his physical stature and the fact that he is
regarded highly from Australians in the team he does it and I believe
it was their team strategy to have Symonds get into this with
Harbhajan.

I cant wait till he gets back to India and then he plays in the middle
order without Gilly and I can see he having a nightmare of a series.
I wonder if he would ever go and do the same to Ambrose/Akram et al.
Lets see if he can do the same to Harmison/ Flintoff in the heat of a
tight contest.
2. Ponting -- arrogance personified.. especially look at the video
where he gave gangulay (or was it Dhoni?) out!

While Symonds is the cause of many problems, Ponting is the root cause
of problems. If the captain starts claiming false catches, the spirit
of the game goes for a toss.
Not only is this the difference between him and Tendulkar/Lara, but as
Tendulkar let his bat do the talking that inspite of him being way
past his prime, he can still give the so called best batsman in the
world a run for his money.

3.Micheal Clarke - has the behavior and expression of Bradman when he
is probably like .0001% of the great man?

The guy is a cheat! and if CA really thinks that they should learn
anything from this whole thing, they shouldnt make him the next vice
captain/captain.
Nice ones
1. Gilly - Absolute gentleman and never can see a trace of arrogance
(other than from his bat)
No arrogance, but isnt a saint as he is percieved. Though he does keep
talking about being true and walking, he is the first one to gu up on
wrong decisions.
Forgot that whole incident in Sri Lanka where Symonds was wrong given
out and he started throwing his golves, what happened when so many
wrong decisions go in the oppositon's favour ?

Having said that, he still is amongst the few who makes cricket
watching great!

2. Hussey - looks like a gentleman, at least as of now
Probably the gem in the Ausralian side and should be the next captain!
A replica of Kumble/Dravid from the Indian side.

Then he is not fit to captain Australia :)­


3. Lee - restrained arrogance - only related to his own bowling
capability

Ditto.

I hope we don't let them get away with lying like we did in Sydney
test match

Because they didn't. Herbies has been found guilty of abuse, what form that
abuse took, well who knows, it was impossible to prove but Herbies admitted
it and the Australians thought it was racial

General abuse? I thought that is what is known euphimistically as

If he's not being penalised for racial abuse, and quite frankly, I
never want to see teammates being the sole evidence for such a charge,
then he should be exonerated.

Re: From an India fan: This is sad Dougie 05:42:46
 wrote in rec.sport.cricket:

The result one looks for in a situation like this, is an impartial
hearing, based on facts. If HS did racially abuse Symonds, throw the
book at him, and if he did not, then let him be. What appears to have
happened however, includes an inordinate amount of pressure by the
BCCI, with the ODI players being flown in and all sorts of
inflammatory statements and threats. This is not right. The result is
that HS is cleared of racial abuse, but we may never know if this is
because there was simply not enough evidence to prove the charge or
whether the pressure created caused CA and the ICC to cave. Is this
the situation that right thinking Indians wanted? I would have liked
to see a no-nonsense hearing. What we got instead is posturing and
drama, and I would submit that this is not good for India either.

Well said.

The game will suffer. When I heard Ponting had walked out of the hearing
after an hour I knew the fix was in and we weren't going to see justice.
The one I feel sorry for is Symonds. Absolutely terrible when racial
abuse is excused because of the $ that will be lost if it is punished.

You won, but this is a victory for Australia really. India has done
immense damage to its international standing, even if only in cricket
countries. A very sad day for India indeed. You got your way but this is
what is known as a Pyrrhic victory, one that will have an infinitely
worse cost to the victor than it will to the defeated.

Bhajji cleared of racism charge Nagesh S K 05:41:50

The charge of racist abuse against Harbhajan Singh has been lifted.
The spinner has, instead, been charged with abuse, a level 2 charge
that merely entails a fine.

Cricket caves in to India's demands
Peter Lalor | January 30, 2008

INDIA, the team that bleated about the spirit of cricket after being beaten
in Sydney, has again held a gun to the game's head and had its demands met.

Judge John Hansen yesterday downgraded the charges against Harbhajan Singh
in an appeal hearing in Adelaide yesterday against his conviction and
three-match ban for racially abusing Andrew Symonds.

India pulled out every stop to pressure the International Cricket Council
and Cricket Australia to cave in at the appeal hearing.

The billionaire superpower of world cricket threatened for the second time
in a month to go home if it didn't get its way, while its players refused to
continue with the tour and remained in the luxury team hotel in Adelaide.

The players were supposed to fly to Melbourne yesterday, but instead
indulged in brinkmanship and even had the seven one-day players waiting in
Melbourne flown across to join the sit-in.

The Indians also held the tour to ransom by pulling the same stunt after the
Sydney Test when Harbhajan was convicted.

The team agreed last night to fly to Melbourne and continue the tour after
Harbhajan's charge was downgraded to the lesser offence of using offensive
language.

Even the new charge could have led to him being banned for two one-day
internationals but Harbhajan was instead fined half his match fee - about
$3000 - a penalty at the bottom of the range.

Harbhajan's counsel, VR Manohar, whose son is a high-ranking Board of
Control for Cricket in India official, ran the case from India and made it
clear the hearing was a matter of national honour.

The Australian can reveal that the Australian Test team and officials from
Cricket Australia had an emotional and often fiery meeting during the
Adelaide Test, at which it was resolved to allow Harbhajan to lower his
charge from racism to offensive language if he made a public apology.

The players wanted Harbhajan convicted of something because he had allegedly
broken his word, lied and twice called Symonds a "monkey".

When the offer for Harbhajan to apologise in return for the lesser charge
was made to the BCCI it was rejected out of hand.
In the past two Tests, the Indians have reaped the rewards of their petulant
outburst following the Sydney loss.

After that game, Indian captain Anil Kumble complained that "only one team
was playing with the spirit of the game", while his board put a hold on the
tour until an umpire was replaced. Another senior player anonymously
labelled Australians "cheats" and "liars". In the aftermath, umpires have
been frozen with terror when a bowler appeals and have allowed some
questionable tactics by the visitors.

Kumble and other Indians suggested Michael Clarke could not be trusted
because he failed to walk when he edged a ball in Sydney and then claimed a
catch that looked doubtful on replay.

In Adelaide on Monday, Sourav Ganguly hit a ball that was clearly caught by
Michael Hussey but the batsman refused to walk. Replays showed he was out
and only then did the batsman leave.

Had the batsman been an Australian - let alone Clarke - India would have
reacted with outrage.

When Clarke was batting, Harbhajan, Mahendra Singh Dhoni and Dinesh Kartik
appealed excessively in the belief that Kartik had taken a bat-pad chance.

Harbhajan's sustained appealing was backed up by Kartik, who appeared to wag
his finger at the umpire and later spat heatedly on the ground near Clarke.

In the meantime, Dhoni began to sledge Clarke who had to pull out of facing
the next ball because the wicket-keeper was still talking as Harbhajan came
in to bowl.

It might have been hard but fair, it might have been mental disintegration,
it might have been many things, but imagine what it might have been if it
had been the Australians appealing.

I can't provide any theories regarding these fascinating figures, but it

Bowled 16 times out of 50 dismissals - 32%, worse than any of the
players I cited. Makes you wonder where that high contemporary praise
was coming from (although, of course, we don't have easy access to
analysis of his batting for Victoria).

In all first-class matches Woodfull was bowled 50 times in 206 dismissals,
or 24%.

For Victoria Woodfull was bowled 14 times in 73 dismissals, or 19%.

Woodfull's contemporaries may have been better calling him "the lbw-able":
it was not until his 45th innings for Victoria that he was dismissed in that
manner. He was also relatively 'unbowlable' at the start of his state
career, not being dismissed bowled until his 16th innings for Victoria by
which time he had notched up four centuries.

If Symmo had balls Will_S 04:59:11
 He would withdraw from any matches featuring India.

Its either a case of him been racially vilified and in that case he has to
make a stand. CA wont support him but if he issued a statement that he will
withdraw from any matches or tour featuring India he would assume cult
status.


anyway come the Indian tour all current players should make them selves
unavailable and we send a "c" team to meet our contractual obligations
