I am not a hard core cricket enthusiast .I never watch the game at a stretch, even when ma country is playing. But, as a patriot I can’t seem to ignore the events that took place in the Sydney test .What exactly went wrong? Who should be blamed for team India’s 122 run’s loss?
1. Umpires Mark Benson and Steve Bucknor?
2 .Australian team itself?
Ricky Ponting and his men pulled up all the dirty tricks up their sleeves to get team India down. These are some of the events of the test match that will go down the history books for all the wrong reasons.
DAY1: Though Andrew Symonds (30) edged Ishanth Sharma to Dhoni, Bucknor remained unmoved .Symonds went on to score 162.
DAY4: Mike Hussey clearly edged RP Singh to Dhoni but, umpire favored the Aussies.
DAY5: Bucknor gave Rahul Dravid caught behind of Symonds despite the ball missing the bat.
Benson checked with the captain himself before giving Ganguly caught behind, though catch appeared to have come of the ground.
Bhajji falsely accused by Ponting n co for racial remarks.
Their attitude and behavior were not that of world champions but, that of third rate tacticians’ .At least gully cricket is played with much better sports man spirit than yesterday’s game.
Umpiring isn’t an easy job. To make mistake is human but continuous mistake in such crucial game is so uncalled of. Okay leave it why wasn’t the third umpire consulted whenever a case odd doubt was put in. Instead listen to the irony, whom does the umpire listen to? The biggest cheater Ponting. MR. Bucknor….even experience can cheat. You ought to go home and play with your grandchildren.
Millions of people in India are outraged not because our country lost but for the fact that we went down for all wrong reasons.
We are behind you team India
