Lord Posted March 10, 2009 Posted March 10, 2009 See the Haddin incident. Shocking. Dhoni's one was the one bouncing in front whcich he may have been unsure of wether he caught it. Haddins has been his second blatant such cheating after NZ!! Haddins latest one reminded me of the moin khan one U mean Rashid Latif?
Lord Posted March 10, 2009 Posted March 10, 2009 ^O my mistake it was Latif. Classic pak cheating:hysterical: doesnt this look similar? e6ZFHIUE4FY&feature=related
Lord Posted March 10, 2009 Posted March 10, 2009 To give credit to Packees --- they have stopped cheating -- atleast on the field. Australia has always been a sly team taking advantage of every loop hole in the law. Their biggest cheat and liar is definetly Ponting. For as good a player he, i hate him as a Sports Person. thats because they have stopped playing:hysterical:
King Tendulkar Posted March 10, 2009 Author Posted March 10, 2009 doesnt this look similar? e6ZFHIUE4FY&feature=related No. He caught that and IMO was in control when he released it. Also I dont see the demented appeal like Latiff. So in short NO it doesnt look similar
graphic23 Posted March 10, 2009 Posted March 10, 2009 The haddin one was no such incident. In this incident he knew he had not caught it' date=' was not the bouncing in fron type catch[/quote'] 92.6 Siddle to Duminy, no run, was that a drop? Yes it was, Siddle gets one to nip away off the seam and Duminy hops at the crease and gets a thick edge to Haddin low to his right, Haddin's not sure if he took it cleanly and asks the umpires to decide, the slow-motion replays show that it was grassed - the ball lobbed off his left glove and as he tried to get his right glove underneath it to take the rebound, the ball bounced on the turf, that slow-mo replay was simply awesome And the Pietersen catch, Dhoni had his eyes seemingly on the ball but still ended up appealing. Do you know why ? Because a lot of these catches taken at the slips or by the keeper are still reflex catches. It is extremely difficult to judge whether you've grassed it or not, when its a very close call. Its not without reason that until the late 90s, wicket-keeping was a sole skill that a wicket-keeper had, any batting above that was seen as an additional thing.
Lord Posted March 10, 2009 Posted March 10, 2009 No. He caught that and IMO was in control when he released it. released?he dropped it straight onto the ground Also I dont see the demented appeal like Latiff. So in short NO it doesnt look similar the appeal wasnt similar.but Dhoni also didnt ask the umpires to refer it or signal that he grassed it.

Macj Posted March 10, 2009 Posted March 10, 2009 Biggest cheat in my book is Afridi - just because of the pitch stubbing that he did against England. Thats Cheating 101.
The Outsider Posted March 10, 2009 Posted March 10, 2009 Haddin did appeal but indicated that he was not sure if the ball had bounced, so that's a pretty fair thing to do. On the other hand Ponting standing at second slip immediately got his 5th umpire finger up.
King Tendulkar Posted March 10, 2009 Author Posted March 10, 2009 Haddin is a cheat and he has previous. The 3rd umpire decided that it was not a clean catch. While haddin kept silent hoping 3rd umpire would say clean catch, even though Haddin knew 100% he had grassed it. Haddin also appealed as is mandotary for such a thing to go to tv umpire. Cheating of highest order! SHOCKING
graphic23 Posted March 10, 2009 Posted March 10, 2009 so after all Michael Clarke wasnt to be blamed for appealing in Sydney If you had asked me this a year ago, I would've started cursing and swearing at Michael Clarke. But now, I realize that it was a close catch (and Gavaskar, who was on at that time, thought that the replays were inconclusive so that the 3rd umpire had to intervene and give Ganguly not out - and I agree with him even now). However, what I don't agree with is the umpire's and the Australian captain's behavior at that dismissal. Ponting acted as if Clarke would die before lying about a catch - and maybe so, but later in that series, this is the man who stood his ground when Kumble got him caught at slip. And umpire Benson had nothing to say about it - generally the square leg umpire and the main umpire come together and call for the 3rd to get the correct decision. Ganguly had to go because Ponting raised his finger! It was pathetic. All in all, I am gutted about that Test Match but more blame ought to go to the umpires and Ponting to a certain extent rather than Clarke, whom, you could argue, was wrong in not telling the umpire that he was not sure of the catch but it appeared that he was.
King Tendulkar Posted March 10, 2009 Author Posted March 10, 2009 You see Collingwood today. First ball of chanderpaul just and i mean just did not carry. He did not appeal. Very honest. Compare that to cheating Haddin
Aussiefanguy Posted March 10, 2009 Posted March 10, 2009 You see Collingwood today. First ball of chanderpaul just and i mean just did not carry. He did not appeal. Very honest. Compare that to cheating Haddin Mate, you are so heavily biased against Australia you have absolutly no credibility.
nikred Posted March 10, 2009 Posted March 10, 2009 You see Collingwood today. First ball of chanderpaul just and i mean just did not carry. He did not appeal. Very honest. Compare that to cheating Haddin Do you have any of the Haddin cheating videos? I am struggling to find them on youtube.:((
