Trichromatic Posted September 6, 2011 Posted September 6, 2011 SOUTHAMPTON: Nasser Hussain's 'donkey' jibe at the Men in Blue may have cost him a commentary stint in India, according to sources. TOI has learnt that Neo Sports, the broadcasters for next month's India-England series in India, have dumped the idea of hiring the former England captain days after shortlisting his name for the series. "We were planning to consider him for our studio shows but after his comments on Indian cricketers, I don't think he will be considered at all. We have to keep the sentiments of the cricketers and viewers in mind," a Neo Sports official said. At present, Neo are left with two England cricketers in their shortlist for the October matches - Ian Botham and David Lloyd. Neo, incidentally, are the official broadcasting arm of the BCCI, which had expressed outrage at Hussain's 'donkey' comment targetted at India's sloppy fielders.
Trichromatic Posted September 6, 2011 Author Posted September 6, 2011 Lol, how quick Rajiv Shukla and BCCI were reacting to this isssue and on the other hand they are quietly ready to give extension to Srikanth. Jahan haath pair marna chahiye, wahan to soye huye hain aur jahan koi fayada nai wahan itni furti kaise?
Laaloo Posted September 6, 2011 Posted September 6, 2011 He mentioned during the 20/20 that he wasn't planning to go to India anyways. So not a big loss for him
TheYuvi02 Posted September 6, 2011 Posted September 6, 2011 lol is this fake or what because nasser himself mentioned before that he wasn't going to India for this series so :facepalm: to neo sports they suck anyway but it's not surprising since they are related to bcci. nasser is a part of sky and star cricket also hires him.
TheYuvi02 Posted September 6, 2011 Posted September 6, 2011 He mentioned during the 20/20 that he wasn't planning to go to India anyways. So not a big loss for him exactly, bcci are fools trying to take attention away from themselves with this incident
yoda Posted September 6, 2011 Posted September 6, 2011 Good on Neo. Nassar's comments can be just recycled, just more mindless bashing of Indians in general.

jonas10 Posted September 7, 2011 Posted September 7, 2011 When England were getting humiliated in the WORLD CUP by Ireland AND Bangladesh I dont recall Kapil Dev saying that the English were playing like DOGS or their fielders were as greasy as pigs. I wonder how Nasser would like that? Good on whos decision this was. You wanna kick someone when they are down there will be repercussions.

I bet all that was just an eyewash ! Just to show how ethical srikanth is and how strong his integrity is. How cunning of srikanth..!
yoda Posted September 7, 2011 Posted September 7, 2011 WC2011' date=' Test#1 for 1+ yrs ? :hmmm:[/quote'] But, but, but all that was despite the selection committee headed by him and ofc the 0-4 is just because of his selection policies. :facepalm:

TheYuvi02 Posted September 7, 2011 Posted September 7, 2011 there was a video of some indians throwing a donkey off the bridge after nasser made his comment :facepalm: so many emotional fools. And what the hell are all these bollywood actors doing by commenting on this incident? they need to continue making crappy movies instead
