| ![]() Its a Man Of THE Match award, not the Man of the LAST Match. The Man of The Match was either Sehwag whose batting saved us an embarassment, or Ponting who's gritty partnership with Clarke ensured that the Aussies drew level with India. We all know what happened after those two left. These are the people who's contribution had a decisive effect on the match, and hence are men of the match. |

| ![]() I am dissapointed with the way Harbhajan bowled in this match.... he hasnt been doing well for long now and doesnt deserve a place in the playing 11, atleast in tests. Can't believe sachin was declared the MOM... this is gross. Really sad to see Gilchrist go.... he was a great player and an even better human being, a rare combination in competitive cricket of today.

| ![]() But Tendulkar is the 1st rank student, teacher's pet, he can do no wrong. Even his slightest performance is great and has to rewarded & talked about. BTW, who decides the MOM, isn't it the commentary team? Will they miss any chance? Quote:

Senior - BHPian ![]() | ![]() ok chalo, to settle this issue, as our politicians would often do, let us give viru the 'deputy MOM' & kumble the 'deputy MOS'. Please let me know if i have left out any, there are still 'additional MOM & MOS' awards to be given. ![]() |

It was a close call but to say that Sachin did not deserve it is a little incompetent remark. I personally believe that in these kinds of matches it is most difficult to give a MoM award. It should have been shared in my opinion as there were so many good performances. | |

All because BCCI capitulated in front of aussies and agreed to a lesser charge. for some strange reason, all news channels are claiming its a victory for india. I dont understand this - you blackmail aussies that we will screw you financially if you do not drop the charges. Simultaneously, u drop charges against their player. Aussies agree to a reduced level charge to keep the series going. Now, how is that a victory? its just a face-saving deal for india. right thing would have been to let a fair hearing happen. if bhajji had been convicted, then bcci could do whatever it wants. if bhajji had been cleared, then symonds/aussies and procter had it. | |
