Just reiterates the fact that nobody can afford to mess with the "biggie" Indian board :) Reportedly, some of the australian players are not happy with the outcome!

its like using your power and influence for all the wrong reasons. do you guys know for real what happened there on the pitch?? how can you guys be so sure?? whatever happened.. one thing is sure wrong. you guys supporting the BCCI is somewhat like supporting powerful, corrupt politicians using their power to get it done their way.. sad...

Australians give racial taunts while sledging and we don't make a BIG NEWS out of it. But when they get it back, the are crybabies as said by digitized.

Its sad to see Indians like you supporting foreign-causes! As you have rightly said, NOBODY WAS SURE WHAT HAPPENED ON THE FIELD..So why ban bhajji and term him a racist when there is no proof!

just because am an indian, doesnt mean i should agree with you. or sympathise w/ the indian team. they are there to make as much money as possible. they spend more time doing ads than playing good cricket. and even after all this money, attention and all they still lose.

Lol! I did not say you should agree with me! Your discussion IMO is off-topic! Still let me comment on that..

they are there to make as much money as possible.
Its a profession and there is nothing wrong in earning as much money as you can as long as you are doing justice to your profession!


they spend more time doing ads than playing good cricket.
Dont get started on this topic again!

and even after all this money, attention and all they still lose.
Money and skills/talent are two different things.Just because someone is earning a lot of money does not mean he has to win every title/cup/trophy! Thats not a fair comment to make!

you said it is sad to see an indian like me supporting "foreign causes". that obviously means, you expect indians to support 'indian causes'. which does not make any sense.

indian cricket players certainly arent doing justice to their profession. given all the money, attention, they still are not the no.1 team in the world.

it is absolutely fair to expect someone who earns more money/is famous to play good cricket. if someone is famous, he is famous for a reason, and that is he plays good cricket. and that we expect him to continue playing that cricket.

Oh is it ? Expecting Indians to support "Indian causes" does not make any sense ? Thats a really weird comment!

And you are again talking about the same thing..Money alone does not make anyone or team the best player/team in the world!

And its certainly not players fault that we, Indians, give them so much attention and money!
