Folks, go read the FOX SPORTS | Sports news Australia | Australian sports
It is full of sh** Australians talking good about their fu**ing team.
Lucky bast***s is a nice phrase in Australia. What kinda Sh** people they are.... it sucks...

Well Akram put it rightly: cry babies :-) they can't take it when its given back to them.

There's too much money involved for both the boards. So it will all be amicably settled. Bhajji will get a suspended sentence at the max, same with Hogg. The captains will be asked to shake hands and get on with the game. Sharad Pawar is ICC President elect for 2009; he's not going to rock any boat as of now.

I still feel our team should come back and we teach all the guys a lesson to ICC, to BCCI and to Aussies. It will also tell the whole world that we cannot be taken for granted for any abuse. Let CA bear the loss of $50 mn and be happy and ask their lucky ba****d to repay the sum.

I hope you guys are aware that a compromise of sorts has been reached? Bhajji plays the third test, pending hearing of the BCCI appeal against the ICC ban

BCCI muscle flexing lol

true, they are only concerned about money. But, if public opinion remains hardline, then even bcci and pawar cannot do anything.

See, even public knows how to play games hard.

maddy42 · 8th January 2008, 15:58

Every person in india know that BCCI can actually flex muscles. So we dont need a compromise situation where bhajji is out of 3 tests sometime later. We want a proper decision where he is cleared of his charge.
I appreciate kumble for maintaining his poise at such times coz i feel anyone else would have taken the bat and thumped bucknor on his head on the field like how Ian Chappel said. So much wish sidhu to have been in the side at that opportune moment

SumitB · 8th January 2008, 16:00

Did you see the reaction of Pawar when he was making this announcement about Bhajji being allowed to play the next game. Damn these politicians are taking all this in their vested interests. Pawar is the next ICC President designate and does not want to jeopardise his chair. If Hogg should call someone B*******D then it should be these so called Board Members of the BCCI.

Our stand should be clear. No match till the charges against Bhajji are dropped.

Bucknor: (n) (adj)
1. Temporary blindness leading to missing out on the obvious.
2. To be at the wrong place at the wrong time.
3. Situations leading to grave judgmental errors.
Usage: I feel bucknored by my boss; Life often throws a bucknor at you.

Benson: (n) (adj)
1. Something that legitimises a severe bucknor.
Usage: First they bucknored me and then they bensoned it! I am toast.
Also see bucknor

Heard news in TV. Indian team is planning to fly to canberra on t'mrow morning. I feel they should not move out of Sydney until ICC gives clean chit to Bhajji and the Sydney match is annuled.

SumitB · 8th January 2008, 19:24

We have disputing news on different channels. Zee News says that the players want to stay put in Sydney until Bhajji is cleared of the charges. Other channels say that the team will go to Canberra. Only time will tell what happens. Personally I want them to stay put till his name is cleared.

Eddy · 8th January 2008, 20:21

The tour will go ahead. :(

BCCI tells CS that the meeting is only a formality
Tour to go ahead: BCCI
