Bitter SL deny veeru ton with on purpose no ball

[achilles]

I am absolutely LOVING the consequences (including an IPL contract) which follow after playing hard-ball with India and our players :isalute:

[vamos_rafa]

I loved sehwag's reply though.... no diplomacy no frills just a plain remark that yes it was intentional.... And it did look intentional as well i mean brett lee would have been proud of the size of the no-ball .... maybe randiv was striving for extra pace there...... BTW what crap explanation from sanga.... "perhaps he was trying to ball a doosra to get the extra bounce"... now from when do spinners overstep in the process of bowling dossra/getting extra bounce... I thought they do so for extra pace... The way sanga reacted to tony greig's question during the presentation was surprising as well .... he was pretending as if he did know anything.....

shewag enjoy batting,not records

Dont live in lala land. Our franchise have no sense of marketability. Symmonds got a record 1.35 million $ contract just a few weeks after the spat with Indians. Pak players are still courted by SRK and Rajasthan royals after mumbai attack was orchestrated by groups formed by pak govt. Sanga was made captain for Punjab kings 11 even after his usual whinging against India.

At least this incident makes randiv the most hated sri lankan , what a respite for the curator :phehehe:

Virender Sehwag earned the dubious distinction during the last day’s play at the Eden Gardens on Thursday for deliberately kicking the ball away over the ropes, with the intention of keeping Hashim Amla him on strike. It was the fifth ball of Sachin Tendulkar’s over, the South African innings’ 130th , when Amla smacked a square off a short-pitched delivery. The ball raced away towards the fence but stopped just short of the boundary line. Sehwag intentionally kicked it over to deny opportunity to Amla to change ends. South Africa were on 284 for 9 at that time with Amla and No 11 Morne Morkel at the crease.:giggle: The umpires decided to award South Africa four penalty runs and also awarded a run to Amla for crossing over. The penalty, termed as ‘willful illegal act of fielder’ — the first such instance in Test cricket in India—- is covered under Law 19.6 of the Laws of Cricket, the ICC’s manual. BCCI statistician Dinar Gupte, when asked to recollect previous instances of such penalty for willful illegal act of a fielder by an Indian cricketer in Tests, said that there’s no such instance. :hysterical::hysterical::hysterical:

The law also seems messed up to me. 1. When Sehwag had deliberately pushed the ball over the boundary in the Calcutta test, he was fined. How is bowling a no ball deliberately different? 2. The ball was counted in the tally of deliveries faced by Sehwag. How messed up is the law if the ball is going to be counted as one the batsman faced but there is no opportunity for him to score off it?

Seconded. That rule is nonsensical.

Absolutely. This is something that Sehwag would do well to bear in mind. There was no greater supporter of Sehwag than me till this happened. I still am proud of him and would do anything to watch him play. But the respect has definitely gone down. So when making comments about cricket spirit, he ought to consider this closely. It is not about which act was more heinous. Anything against the spirit is...just that. Against the spirit of the game.

[Don Sharma]

Didn't hoggard bowl a wide to deny Gilchrist fastest test century ? How is this any different ? The law is to be blamed for this farce and no matter how much we hate the cheap tactics by lankans they've played within the laws of the game.

Are you sure about that? I know that wides don't get tallied in the no. of balls faced by the batsman.

[King Tendulkar]

Sangakara also kept impecaabaly. Then all of a sudden he lets a routine take go past in last over for 4 byes, then Randiv bowls the biggest no ball ever. What a disgrace

Did no one see the sanga 4 byes. That was deliberate as well

i dont understand what you guys are trying to prove here... play without any sense of sportsman's spirit... then even after your fecking bowler/board apologizes you guys try to point a finger towards us... :finger.... you are all sore losers

Whatever , your players got owned big time .. doesnt matter how many smilies you use now :cantstop:

atleast he was rying to win the game.Randiv was just being a lowlife with game gone' date='trying to deny an opposition batsmen a landmark[/quote'] I am afraid there can be no defending such acts. Whether it was Sehwag who did it or anybody from any other team.

But Dont forget this incident too..:eyedance: Ganguly bowled a widish delivery to get rid of sanath (given that he had few more overs to reach 200) in his famous 189 and I'm pretty sure with that kind of attitude he would have bowled a no ball or any other delivery to prevent sanath from reaching 200 had he been confronted to bowl the last delivery of the innings. :cantstop::cantstop::cantstop::cantstop::cantstop::cantstop:
