Analyzing Pontings "good" over "bad"

[Dinx - the Jinx]

abt bajji's not walking when bowled.. well he wasn't sure whether the ball hit the stumps directly or whether it rebound off the keeper's gloves before disloding the bails cos he thought the ball was going away frm the stumps... so he was asking the umpires to give him out... is there anything wrong in this??? compare this to clarke's refusal to leave the crease when he edged one to first slip where he saw that the catch was taken clean.. and wat was he waiting for? was he expecting a no ball from da umpire cos the ball turned more than he anticipated?

How Ricky Ponting got away and Rashid latif was banned is beyond me ( no wat, its not..its quite frankly open and shut case abt bias ) maybe Donnie and Aussies can explain this but no, they will return to attack our characters on a different thread..and we, the hospitablel crowd will let em say it and stay here ..this is our character

A brawl in a bar is nothing.. dont be stupid. .

Nothing a brawl in a bar???? You joking? Never seen Sachin, Dravid, Kumble and co involved in such things. He could learn something from these gentleman and sporting greats. What next??? He only stuck a bottle in his face in a brawl, thats nothing!

Ponting is Punter. And he is very good one. He is a well known gambler. And in gambling you ready to lose some to eventually gain... like "lose war and win the battle"... Ponting is no saint. I would think he is shrewd enough to manipulate the situation to the best-probability of winning and least-probability of losing.
