Guest dada_rocks Posted January 7, 2008 Share Posted January 7, 2008 maybe.. maybe not.. I dont see why Bucknor would favor Australia. In any case, the simple fact is that is the 3 wickets were not lost in 5 balls at the end, then 1:1 it would be. 1:0 ..learn how to count before coming out with idiotic lectures in defence of thug team Link to comment

It's inot the the last 3 wickets that matter. Indians lost the moment unfair decisions were handed out to Dravid and Ganguly! There is something more than Cricket that is called honor and reputation. Aussies have lost that with this Ratbag performance! Link to comment
Brainfade Posted January 7, 2008 Share Posted January 7, 2008 maybe.. maybe not.. I dont see why Bucknor would favor Australia. In any case, the simple fact is that is the 3 wickets were not lost in 5 balls at the end, then 1:1 it would be. Point 1: First off, the choice to ask the fielding captain was made by Benson, not Bucknor. But, to answer your question - several of the decisions made by Bucknor went in favor of Symonds. You can come to any conclusion, but in light of everything else, I smell a rat. Point 2: If RSD and SCG had been allowed to stay there as long as they should have, then 1:0 (or even 1:1) it could be. Look, I am not saying that biased umpiring was the only reason India lost. But, the odds were over-stacked in the Aussies' favor. Like someone said, when you have to take 30 wickets, plus your two best batsmen on the day were given out to deliberately ridiculous decisions, there is no question of overcoming those odds. It's like saying - no matter what - I (all of 5'7" and 160 lbs.) should be able to dunk a basketball by tomorrow morning. No matter what, there are limits to what can be overcome - and in this match, those limits were reached. Link to comment
PatAU Posted January 7, 2008 Share Posted January 7, 2008 First go ahead and buy thug along with bangles dress for aussies team and umpires.. So mantra as per you is let aussie and umpire screw but india tema must go ahead with this charade.. It's farce going on out there not test cricket All I see is that India is Austrailas *****. The only way out is to play. Wouldnt we all like to see an India win.. can we at least agree that this would be nice to see? Link to comment

India have proven that they can compete. I agree with your captain that "if we continue to play as well as we have.. a win will come" He has the righ attitude. It seems that the defeatist attitude of the Indian public are letting their team down. Pity. Link to comment
Guest dada_rocks Posted January 7, 2008 Share Posted January 7, 2008 Actually thuggery of aussie team and umpire is letitng indian team down Link to comment

In any case, the simple fact is that is the 3 wickets were not lost in 5 balls at the end, then 1:1 it would be. Simple fact is that even if the Indian bats had negotiated those deliveries, dumb facknor and fark benson would have screwed us the subsequent deliveries. Another simple fact is that our two set bats were BOTH screwed by these guys, one given out off a non-edge and another's floored catch verified by a n unknown on-field third ump called Ponting.

PatAU Posted January 7, 2008 Share Posted January 7, 2008 Yes in cricket match but not in a farce against thug team Just bowl the thugs out. The recent one day series in india has shown that both sides are capable of thuggish behaviour. boo hoo hoo..... we are a nation of a billion but we are scared of a few thugs. Link to comment
