Perfect "wrong one" at the right time !

Jumbo letting Brad hogg off the hook might have left a few people dumbfound.This Oz tour has been quite happening more than an average individual like me would have anticipated.Anil's changed response has left a few questions unanswered but the answers are right there and we must appreciate Anil's capability of killing two birds with one stone as long as he does'nt lose the sight of the purpose of taking this move coz this is the best time for him to grip his hold tighter on the situation.Anil's keeping this card up his sleeve to be thrown at the right time will allow BCCI Chief Sharad Pawar to have more points when they take Cricket Australia and ICC on a task in the coming days proving that they have done their bit in in the interest of the game.This knock out punch will be an ordeal for everyone down under and the heat must be felt by Punter and Cricket Australia if they have comprehended what does RECIPROCATE mean? An unexpected "generosity show" and earnest essay by the Indian captain to mitigate the everlasting effects in the interest of the game backed by the BCCI expecting a "RECIPROCATION" from Australia will force Australia to play their shots and as there is no room for an escapado.It is not going to be a clear sail for ICC as well which holds a substantial no of Australian representatives which has worked as a tonic for Australia to become law unto themselve.He has taken it in his own stride and demonstrated how Indian culture have an edge over the Aussie Culture,but that is very much true that Ricky Ponting and Co.would be last thing to be trusted in cricketing World coz they are the ones who just crave for win not winning on positive note,so I think we can still call the shots if BCCI sticks to their take in Bhajji's episode.India can still call off the tour and undoubtedly Aussies and only Aussies will suffer because of that as long as BCCI sticks to it.India has filled ICC's safe in leaps and bounds in terms of revenues.Needless to say that Indian Cricket has booned ICC alone as compared to the entire cricket fraternity put together especially after the advent of stars like Sachin,Sourav and Dravid.I must say that not only Anil is a calm and collected individual but also a one who knows when the iron is hot enough to be hit.Anil is far sighted and when Australia is looking to save their reputation,he has made most of it by showing generosity especially when Indian team has been heaped with praise for their true spotsmenlike spirit in the Sydney test,So it is nothing but a perfect wrong one from Anil at the right time,Good Move Jumbo!

Records are paramount,cricket is just a coincidence-Australia's New panache

Many Congratulations ! to the Australians to yield the result they were looking for playing with 14 players in the side.The debacle down under has taken the entire crickting world under its wings and the Harbhajan Singh's episode is not going to calm down as easily as Kangaroos might have perceived..It was pretty much evident that it was not about proving whether the Indians were right or wrong.Proving your innocence or to postion yourself righteously comes into picture when there six from one side and half of a dozen from the other side situation drops in.When the T.V replays,the 100,000 people on the ground the three umpires who are held in great esteem in the cricketing world were perpetrators ashaming cricket openly like psychopath rapists forcing the receiving side to prove how cricket was raped.Can anyone in this world expect criminal to be his own judge,ending up with a confession of the crime?In a catch-22 situation when the opponents are playing with 14 players and 4 umpires including the one standing in the slips,India has lost the clash by merely 122 runs, HATS OFF TO YOU BOYS! When you turn on T.V nowadays you find dignified names of cricket debating on how umpires performance should be gauged and what is the sell by date for them.Have those people called the administrators and almighty of cricket in the world or Indian cricket ,for that matter forgotten the criteria to sack a cricketer when he is not performing well? Is that age of a cricketer,the answer is no.A lot of people who understandably do not have any allebies for the advertent mental disintegration of the Australians,Bucknor,Benson and Oxenford would say that Bucknor has a record 167 test match stand as umpire.What happens when players like Tendulkar ,Ganguly or Inzamam holding zillions of records Under their belt have to prove that they still have enough cricket left in them,At least if they do not perform they are unjust to their respective teams and their own careers,At least they do not jeopardize an Ethnicity or sportsmanlikeship. Be that as it may ,even if the umpires including the third umpire are not physically fit(which of course is nbit the case)what are they doing on the field,waiting for the test match to finish to hide their shameless act by another one.Steve Bucknor did not find it unjust to nod his head in affirmation that Symonds was called a MONKEY by Bhajji coz he knows that this monkey word can do wonders on the cricketing field and this is one of those opportunities to vent out his frustration when he might have been called a Monkey by once upon a time Australian team.He forgot that it was nothing less than a BLOW-JOB. There is anger ,anguish and dissatisfaction in every nook and corner of the country. The BCCI should be patted on its back to be quick in the uptake and also to Sachin Tendulkar who sent the SMS to the BCCI making them aware of the dire consequences in the pipeline if no action was taken.He raised his voice only for the second time in his career after the Chappell's episode.The credit should be given to the PSB as well which supported India being a fellow sufferer. The chappell's episode should not be overlooked which might also have worked as a catalyst for the inglorious and cheap approach of Australians towards this series.Sitting in a press conference the winning captain loses his nerves in lieu of the losing captain.The losing captain enters like a hero and the winning captain...It reminds of a very interesting moment of the game when Dravid was given out and instead of showing any frustration he smiled while taking steps to the pavillion,taking a mickey in the faces of the umpires and the Australians leaving Australian skipper self sufficiently happy as if the entire world has also connived.Navjot Sidhu's comments on the same episode is something to watch out for as it will probably make everyone feel venting out their frustration and also for those who dont have good enough range of Vocab to vent their frustration in words,We have Navjot Siddhu for you. All the more the reknowned cricket journalist lost it to Siddhu by saying "Ricky must go". All is well if it ends well and no one knows better than Indian to show how to fight fire with fire .All of us Indians also have our share in this episode and congratulated to have won this unprecedented struggle because of the United voice of every Indian against the ICC and racism.ICC on the back foot,Howzz that ?
