What has Kohli done to be charged against? Is ICC out of its mind?

braod would never ban smith ,if i were in the ind team from next test i will check up with the dessing room before going for any drs

Australians won't do anything like that or maybe another brainfade will happen and they will be caught. Hoping for the latter lol

Enough of this tamasha, time to focus on Ranchi. Remember how the team lost focus after Lord's 2014(Jadeja-Anderson incident) and switched off mentally after that. We need to answer loud and clear on the field.

I didnt know getting angry on the cricket field can be considered an offence. Kohli was indeed pretty pissed off but he didnt say or do anything that can bring the game to disrepute. He did smash a water bottle on to a tv in the dressing room but thats off the field and only few people like me who were sitting next to the dressing room saw it.

No but it sounds a lot better than 'cheating'. If BCCI pursue this all you will have is Handscomb (even if he did it on several occasions as Kohli is perhaps implying) saying he was ignorant which as unsatisfactory as the current deadlock. Time to move on unless BCCI complain which I understand they might be doing today?

He should be charged, you don't publicly accuse your opponents of cheating (even if they are), you use the proper channels and STFU when talking to the media, he publicly made a serious allegation against a touring captain without evidence, not sure if that's ok in India but it certainly wouldn't be tolerated in Australia. (And I'm not talking about the Smith review, I'm talking about VK saying it's been happening all series)

Seems like both boards and the ICC didn't want a big deal about the incident and Kohli's allegations. Maybe it's for the best. Time to move on.

I know one way to fix it, just allow it, at the end of the day you have 10 seconds, not long enough to view a replay, if teams want to trust someone watching the tele to make the call let em.

 

IMO VK has made such a huge deal out of this because he absolutely butchered his own referrals and is looking for a scapegoat.

I don't think we lost focus. The pitch brought us into the game at lords.Afterwards we were back to being ourselves.

Looking at Ozzie press, Kohli is there number 1 enemy in Cricket now.

Cricket isn't a big selling point in Australia after summer, Collingwood get the attention of moronic journalists until December.
