Kohli fined over gesture to crowd

[chainsmoker1985]

Guys all this is a misunderstanding.Kohli is planning on a career as an umpire. During the course of the long Australian innings' date=' he was so bored that he was practising some of the things for his umpires exams and he was just practising giving a batsman out. :winky:[/quote'] :haha::haha: If umpires start showing finger to the batsmen like this then it won't take too long for Cricket to become WWE and that too with all those bats around

Each umpire has his own style...example Simon Toufel. :--D

When a person is mentally aggressive a couple of untowards incidents are bound to occur. These incidents should be suitably punished to prevent their frequent occurence but I would prefer a bunch of aggressive, ill behaved fighters than pansies who take things sitting down.

I'm confused whether we should play Kohli. On the one hand, he deserves a decent run in the side. On the other hand, he can't handle abuse and its only going to get worse from here on in.

we cant select or drop a player based on whether he get abuse or Not..

Not about whether he gets abused or not, its about him letting it get to him. The abuse he's gonna cop now is going to be a lot worse, the Aussie crowd will be relentless. If he's gonna be affected by it then it wouldn't be smart to play him.

But he's going to be a target for crowds around the world now that he's shown himself to be so easily wound up. Its something he's going to have to overcome, it won't stop with Australia.

[Sachinism]

Yeh I agree. But has he got it in him to let it fly and just concentrate on the game?

[adi B]

Don't lie. No such thing exists!!!

:giggle:

Why can't he abuse back verbally or be sarcastic as well? Thats also an option. In that way he can't get caught or actually there are lots of tricks used by sportsmen around the world to abuse others and still get away with it. Infact, Australian sledging classes teaches you that as well, how to get away with after doing such things. Life ka to funda hai- whoever gets caught is a thief, rest all are innocent

The disease is spreading- Sharma was greeted by a fan at the go-kart centre in the Perth suburb of Belmont as the fan asked: "Why don't you go learn how to bat and bowl before you go go-karting. It will be three-nil mate." Sharma responded, as captured on the back page of yoday's edition of the The West Australian newspaper, with a one-finger salute as he turned his back to get back on the bus.

tbh, not many people here support his actions cos he is a typical aggressive Northie. They are just happy to see him being punished and they don't want to understand the other side of the story. IMO, Kohli's gesture should be taken in a positive manner. Cos from now on, Sydney crowd cannot get away with such rude behaviors. And any more such incident in SCG will highlight Sydney crowd's rude behavior. And Kohli has bravely given a start to that.

Are you ten years old? No really? ever been to a cricket match in India? the kind of abuse and racist rants by the Indian crowd is something found no-where in the world. How on earth can you control nameless crowd from shouting? The kind of reaction the indian team has given shows a team in shambles. the only way to keep the crowd quiet is by good performances. Kohli's reaction is exactly the kind of reaction the crowd enjoys because it gives them a joker to watch Mark my words, from now on, Kohli is going to be heckled in all countries of the world. There are precedents in football. Crowd has found a bunny who reacts to them and provides entertainement Cricketers are ambassadors of their nations and Kohli represnets India in an Indian t-shirt. the crowd is nameless. Heck, if I was in the crowd and had got Kohli to react in this way, i would have laughed my head of and bragged to all my friends. The crowd got exactly what it wanted, got a joker to react and got entertained

What forum is this ? I didn't know there was a martial race in India that didn't take any '****' :hysterical: What would these clowns support, 11 players showing their middle fingers in unison to the crowd coz 'we don't take no ****' :wall:

:two_thumbs_up::two_thumbs_up::two_thumbs_up: Bhajji , Yuvi , Kohli and Gambhir are the proof. But Phattu Gandhiwadis with impotent attitutes wont be able to understand it .

The only Phattus here are Kohli/Ishant, who cannot handle the mental pressure of playing in Australia.

[CSK Fan]

WTF mental pressure' date=' if someone said mc bc to you, would you have sympathy on the person and say.."it's ok" :hysterical: what a pus sy-hearted approach that would be...bloody shyites[/quote'] Under_score Paji, if you knew that someone was intentionaly saying that to you to provoke a reaction and make you, your team and your nation seem like a fool, what will your reaction be? Will you fall into their trap like Kohli did? Did you stop to ask why the crowd screams abuses at players. Use some common sense. they do this because they try to get a reaction out of the players and feel important. The worse thing for them is if a player ignores them Don't you understand the simple fact that the crowd won because of Kohli's reaction? That all of them had a good laugh and were entertained? And the next day all the news paper carried stories of Kohli's deed and use the words indian team and india in a very negative light So knowing all these will happen, will you still react? when a lion or elephant walks hundreds of dogs bark. But they are so dignified that they walk away. The only people who bark back are other dogs Throughout history, the strongest and bravest of men have been the one who have been able to withstanf abuse and provocation and not react. Even the greatest of fighters, martial artisits, boxers, will never react to crowd provocation and you can search hundreds of examples of it. Its only insecure or spoilt brats who react this way

[CSK Fan]

Awesome Ishant :two_thumbs_up:

Under_score paaji really loves seeing India in a bad light and being termed as sore losers.

[CSK Fan]

BTW, some kids here think that its a breave thing to react to abuses. Actually its the easiest and most juvenile thing to react to abuses. Thats why you will find mostly teenagers reacting. Its because they are not strong enough to control themselves The most bravest and difficult thing to do is to control oneself under provocations. Thats why you will see on the street mostly jahils, immoral people and kids who react aggresively. A true man is not so insecure as to be provoked.

[CSK Fan]

C'mon MTC, why should anyone take shyt from some losers in the crowd, crowds who taunt players are the biggest cowards & they deserve a middle finger bcoz they know they are huddled in a bunch :headshake: I know wat you mean, I wish they had replied like the way UV did to Flintoff, well young blood..bound to happen :icflove:

Exactly. thats the way to shut people up. Do you think the crowd got hurt by the middle fingers? the losers would have enjoyed, been entertained and went home and bragged to their freinds about making kohli lose his cool. so Kohli let them win Plus when you are 2-0 down, its comes across as being sore losers

[CSK Fan]

Not really :winky: I like to see Indians reply with agression :two_thumbs_up:

Let them reply with agression to aussie players. true agression is what the Aussie youngsters showed on the field. they have literally owned our behinds

WTF mental pressure' date=' if someone said mc bc to you, would you have sympathy on the person and say.."it's ok" :hysterical: what a pus sy-hearted approach that would be...bloody shyites[/quote'] I wouldn't give a flying **** about some random person i have never known who curses just for the heck of it, it would be a waste of time responding to such an idiot. This would be especially true if i were one of the world's top batsmen (Kohli sure is top 50) and some low life hooligans wanted to distract me. You think no fan ever tried to instigate Sachin/Dravid/Kumble ? You recommend they too give out a response every single time a moron from the crowd curses at them ? Surely they must be some cowards in your book.
