CanadianGer 1 Posted January 7, 2008 Share Posted January 7, 2008 Some of these quotes have a familiar stench of paranoia about them. Though to be fair to the Indians listed, they all have jobs. Indian cricketer Harbhajan Singh has been banned by the ICC in a racism row. "Australian players misbehave with everyone, they think they are superior. When our players have responded, they have slapped a case," says insurance agent Mukul Sharma. "It's unfair. Our players are being targeted. They should return." http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/shared/spl/hi/pop_..._row/html/1.stm Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Newells Sexist Army 2 Posted January 7, 2008 Share Posted January 7, 2008 They do have abit of a point though. The official didn't actually hear the remark, merely just took Ponting's word for it. They were also some shocking decisions in the test: Symonds got a relatively thick edge when on about 30 that the umpire didn't give and which he later admitted himself should've been out; Dravid was given out when there was no contact at all with the bat and then Clarke took that incredibly dodgy looking catch that no official had a decent view of yet was given. They're also so incredibly arrogant the Australian team, even Shane Warne came out in the press recently saying they should calm it down. In saying that, i remember reading there were a couple of dodgy banners in the crowd and similar accusations over Symonds last time Australia played in India.
