veer Posted May 3, 2008 Posted May 3, 2008 ganguly seriously pissed him off.. wow.. !! 5NXgwkDs0g0&feature=related
graphic23 Posted May 3, 2008 Posted May 3, 2008 I think Warne has a point here - not about being late to the field, etc.- Ganguly always did that when he was captain but about the catch. Though I understand that he had a bad experience at Sydney earlier this year, if the square leg umpire (and not Ricky Ponting like last time) says that the catch was clean and also considering the reputation of the fielder who caught it, Ganguly should've just walked off.

graphic23 Posted May 3, 2008 Posted May 3, 2008 its not like the umpire asked Warne and Warne said out - it was the umpire Rudi saying it was out and Dada wanting to call third umpire as if he's the boss of the game Yeah. I'm not sure why the umpire even agreed to call the 3rd umpire - wouldn't that mean that he's not trusting Koertzen ?Poor administration of the game to be honest. Very disappointed indeed.
Indus_Army Posted May 3, 2008 Posted May 3, 2008 Yeah. I'm not sure why the umpire even agreed to call the 3rd umpire - wouldn't that mean that he's not trusting Koertzen ?Poor administration of the game to be honest. Very disappointed indeed. The umpire under question is a local Indian umpire. Probably, he was overawed by the situation and agreed to Dada's request. Dada could have done better than this.:sad_smile: Unfortunately, it's very sad to see Dada getting into all sorts of troubles (calling for his ODI inclusion, poor IPL performance, the incident in OP etc) in the twilight of his career. I hope he lets his fans remember him as that brave captain, who took no crap from the opposition, backed his young guns to the hilt, gave the team some steel/aggression (not the sreesanth type. Thanks) and left us dying for more of his shots played square of the wicket on the off.
swami1984 Posted May 3, 2008 Posted May 3, 2008 too bad warne never captained australia he would not have lost the ashes in 2005 (who chooses to bowl first on a perfect batting strip when your star bowler is injured for the match!?!?)
Sachinism Posted May 3, 2008 Posted May 3, 2008 Puhhh Warne acts like this is something new he should know Ganguly does what he wants lol Warne is racist, cant even use the umpires name, calls him the Indian umpire ban him from the game
