I had never realized that tiny greg was such a resist but after reading this i am shocked... well we in india rarely hear him speak so its difficult to know his views or comments and I wasnt watching the channel 9 feed... its a shocker that such a guy isnt already behind bars... its only obvious that he stays in australia these days... one of the few safe homes remaining for racists, as many indians are still killed there in racist attacks

[phaedrus]

its up to the team to shut him up. and i hope they do

[Sachinism]

Greig defo has issues. Scumbag

[ganeshran]

He is clearly doing it for attention. People feeding it to him are doing exactly what he wants. The best way to deal with online trolls is to ignore them.

[ravishingravi]

Well there are some old issues with India for those who know what happened in 70s. Lately, it is the BCCI.

[Tarun45]

Why are BCCI keeping quite on this, they should get this old aussie ***** fired?

I remember Henry Blofeld and Geoff Boycott had huge fan followings in India, only because they made the effort to fly in (not on their own money). Boycott for one is hated back in his own country and is an obnoxious character to say the least. Tony Greig started covering India games in the 90's and became a regular at Sharjah and sub-continental series, and made a lot of money in the process. His racist tendencies were evident to anyone who listened to Channel 9 commentary in Australia (he toned it down in India to keep his job), but as Indian broadcasters became aware of this, we started to see less and less of him. These days, he has become even more vicious towards Asian teams (particularly India and Pakistan) for some reason, and you will notice plenty of caustic comments towards these countries in his Twitter feed.

[Old guy]

why do u people even care? ignore this self obsessed old man whos one foot is in grave.. he says that he gets attention..are people really so shallow that they will get effected by this?

[MCcricket]

The most irritating commentators to me are Sri Lanka's they live in lala land, despite their performance over hype even the worst player from SL,Mark Nicklaus to me is most irritating, anything white or Aussie is a level above AND HE SINGS THEIR PRAISES AND UNDERMINES ,iNDIAN, pAKI, sl , WI PLAYERS, TEAMS, all coloured players and countries are poor, an Aussies , British as# LIC#$R

LMFAOO "WHY SHOULD THE INDIANS GET THE BENEFIT OF THE DOUBT FOR OVERRULING A NO BALL" I'm lovingthis.

[Rajiv]

He's too old to change so consider him an old crazy man

[Manny_Pacquiao]

the shithead commentators forgot that Erasmus reviewed a zaheer khan dismissal earlier on in the day. they are so ****ing ignorant that its funny, i was laughing pretty hard at the crowd reaction and the whining on air by the old crones. sachin aur rahul toh inki maa, behen ek kar rahe hain..;LOL

[gult]

What do you expect from these racist bastards? Keep on whining about DRS, India all the time. All the more power to BCCI

[daryl1985]

Tony Greig's reaction after Siddle's no ball was epic.

It's a valid point though, if you can't check other things such as the Hussey dismissal, why should the no-ball wicket be checked?

[Pagalpanti]

Its not a valid point, umpires have been allowed to check deliveries which they think might be no-ball (especially if a wicket has fallen) while review umpiring decision is not. So how can you whine about it is beyond me. So you're gonna argue why umpires are reviewing even run out now?

[Manny_Pacquiao]

It's a valid point though' date=' if you can't check other things such as the Hussey dismissal, why should the no-ball wicket be checked?[/quote'] umps have been checking for the no ball for ages. that decision is independent of the DRS system, which is based on referring umpire decisions. dravid didnt ask for it. your commentators conveniently forgot that one of zaheer's wickets was also reviewed by the umpire for overstepping?? do you remember that? why are the aussies getting the benefit of the doubt there??? you won't see indians throwing a fit over that. let's not come up with this one-eyed rubbish. the rules are the same for both teams here. india are well worth their position.

He has proven himself to be an A-Grade ******. It's alright if you have a different stand, but the way he and a few others have been whining makes it them vs us. Idiots. That's why you gotta love Richie Benaud, wish we had more commentators like him.
