chris broad will try to screw GG. BCCI should use its clout to screw Broad

[cowboysfan]

****-i knew it .chris broad is not going to let this go.

[graphic23]

I hope its a 50% or a 100% fine and not a ban.

[vroomfondel]

these are on-field umpires. broad has nothing to do with it -- yet. broad gets to decide severity of punishment, i'm guessing 1 match ban for gauti and 50% dock for watson (and broad will say, "well, I gave them both the max punishment i could - so all's fair")

[DomainK]

ZAK was also charged with level 2. Got80% match fees.

[cowboysfan]

gambhir has a previous charge (very similar) to this.broad is going to ban him one match.

[vroomfondel]

yeah, but this is his second 'physical contact' offense. i don't think he has a leg to stand on against that andaman descended chew

level 2 != level 2 GG's will be severe compared to ZK. And Chris rascist Broad will try to do his "handiwork". GG should have avoided this, and may have to sit out a Test. Hope it is not immediate effect for Nagpur Test-4. BCCI should really throw their weight around since Broad always shows partiality in favor of gora teams.

Broad must be on phone with his son: "I am nailing another one."

[fineleg]

GG, bhajji, sreesanth et.al. must also stop this crossing the line. They need to be aware "Ranjan Madagulle", Chris broad et.al. are out to punish them at any opportunity.

Agreed...broad is not being fair....:finger:

That piece of cra.p broad will never be fair. BCCI *must* step in. Get a lawyer, whatever. Give hell to Broad and ICC if GG is banned. Why were the Aussies let go in previous matches!??

Wont be for the 4th test and GG will have his right to appeal. But then it they do enforce a ban, we can as well rest GG for the final match as the series would be won already.

hopefully......... i dont want to get ahead and predict yet, since match is still in early stages. However, yes, if series is decided and if ban, then GG must be rested. I did not know abt the appeal timeframe, thats good, if he can play if needed. maybe bcci can throw some $ at broad and he will lap it at it like the dog that he is.

Wat's with the Simon Kuttha? Is he not charged with anything? If indeed Gambo gets a fine, we'll raise funds from ICF and pay on his behalf. I'll give my one month salary

[Cricketics]

i heard hari sampath has some approach.. can he do something to make sure Gambhir doesn't have to serve a ban

:two_thumbs_up: Okay - Drinks to everyone on ICF when we seal the series

One thing is for sure though. If Gambhir had not elbowed and would have exercised restraint, Watson would never have been charged in the first place. It takes an out of the way reaction to show that the players are misbehaving. The likes of Tendulkar have taken the abuse silently year after year only answering by playing well. Thats why the Australians have got into the habit of abusing and getting away. We must react.....but in a more controlled way.
