He should be whipped for not wearing the guard. How stupid can you get?

Going by recent posts (or maybe he was always like this :-)), GKD will volunteer for doing it.

It will be a huge loss if we lose Laxman.

Laxman was trying to be act smart by not wearing guard against the fastest bowler on planet earth.

[Sachinism]

sweet we defo need him against aus

On a different note , spare a thought for brave warriors of yesteryears like Mohinder Amarnath who has taken a beating from fast bowlers because technology wasn't so advanced for making protective gears. Each time, he was felled , he rebounded more strongly next time around.

he should be fine for AUS..since he loves playing AUS and he has good records against them also...so i dot think even if he has hairline fracture or something that he miss the tour...

Anil Kumble on VVS Laxman: He, meanwhile, assured that VVS Laxman's injury - after he was hit by a Shoaib Akhtar delivery before retiring hurt - was not a serious one. "I think it's a bruise and he should be fine. It was a pretty nasty blow but there is no crack."

Whats technology got to do with protective equipment ? Even cavemen can design a primitive arm-guard. :D

Laxman was the crack to not wear protective gear.
