Symo is saint. So far Ishant has been quiet and for 2 months never seen him mouth off anything. There must be something symo said.
Actually in one of the games against SL, after he bowls a dot ball to T Dilshan, Ishant clearly says "You F*** off" to him. He isn't a saint and neither is Symonds.

If IS gets punished everytime for such offense, its all worth it... I would like to see such aggression. When Symo hits IS for six then he didn;t say anything, turned his head and walked back. May be a stare or two, but if Symo opens his mouth when he is fooled by 19 yrs old kid then be it HS, IS or SS, they should ask him to Flush off and show him where needs to go.....which IS rightly did so. :two_thumbs_up:

Pointing fingers towards the dressing room is an offense and correctly so, ishant has been charged. Moreover, based on the video posted above it is quite inconclusive that whether or not Roy started the row. Ishant clearly is the guilty one (based on that video). Seriously, not big a deal

How stupid is this. Every single controversy and we see this symo guy involved. I mean bhajji patting Bratt lee and this guy has a problem. And besides, IS is no HS or SS. He behaved very well and all these outings. So why would this guy get upset all of sudden. We know the Prasad incidence. If you dont get to see what Ameer Sohail did on the previous delivery, then u might wanna punish VP for his very strong reaction. I really dont see a diff. So there must have been little but history which we dun know. IS is no mad guy to react like this. He has had, RP, Symo, Hydo, Gilli, big wkts before and he was v decent in his celebration. IS did right by giving him what he deserve. Rest is just matter of history...

Yea Ishant has been fined but Symond' date=' well he did nothing wrong!! I seriously do not understand these match refrees in Australia, they are so racist openly, never find fault in their own players.[/quote'] BCCI should raise a row, and should escalate this matter and not accept that Symo is not fined, but I.S. is fined! DOUBLE STANDARDS by ICC Referees!

Ishant was summoned by Crowe for a disciplinary hearing on Monday morning and was docked 15% of his match fee for pointing Andrew Symonds back to the dressing room after bowling him with a slower ball. Crowe booked Ishant under the Level 1.6 offence under the ICC Code of Conduct which deals with any aggressive action of the bowler pointing the batsmen back to the pavilion. "The umpires, based on what they had seen in the middle, reported to the match referee about the incident," Dr Bimal Soni, the Indian team manager who was present along with Ishant at the hearing, told Cricinfo. "Our plea was Symonds provocated [sic] Ishant and that's why he did what he did," Soni said. "He [Crowe] promised he would be speaking with the Australian captain about the matter." There has a been a lot of bad blood throughout the summer between India and Australia and it was in Sydney that the Harbhajan Singh-Symonds racism row began. Even on that occasion, the Indians felt it was Symonds' provocative language that triggered the incident. The situation reached boiling point with the Indians threatening to abandon the series if the three-match ban handed out to Harbhajan was not lifted. This time around the Indian team management didn't want to escalate matters. But they have requested the match referee to haul up the Australians. "We could've filed another complaint but we didn't want to prolong another hearing. Instead we made the match referee aware that the Australian have provoking our players in the last two matches and cited specific instances, which is not good for our players," Soni said, as the Indian team was ready to board the flight to Hobart for their final league clash against Sri Lanka.

I like this bit This time around the Indian team management didn't want to escalate matters. But they have requested the match referee to haul up the Australians.

:hysterical::hysterical::hysterical: Hilarious!! India just reinforcing that old stereotype that they are the biggest whingers in world sport. They have really humiliated themselves this tour, haven't they?
No they haven't... if any one was humiliated it was Australia.... One shouldn't forget that even some important Australians condemned the Aussie cricket team, that soon. Indian team did the right thing by pointing out to the referee that it was the aussies who instigated the spat, which video evidences confirm. And NZ judge also pointed out it was symonds who instigated monkey row by making to much out of a pat on lee's back. Yet the Aussie goes free. The Indian team did the right thing by not making a big issue out of this one & not complaining like cry baby Ricky Ponting. Good job! Shame on the Aussie cricketers....

Convicts reinforcing their sterotype as biggest yobs/cheats/sry babies in world sport. We can also buy any of your players who would willingly lay down their green baggy cap for the INDIAN RUPEE
