The following statement is by no means a prejiduiced statements towards the great nation of India or the great people of India, just a little observation in my point of view. If you don’t like it, too bad for you! :nahnah:
As we all know for the past couple years we have seen so many great bowlers being given suspective arm action and those issues have been labeled as 'Cancer of Cricket"
In my view the real cancer of cricket is the Indians who have done so much damaged to the international cricket in the past 3 or 4 years so.
It all really started with India vs SA series where bookmakers involved a great player like Hansie Cronje (God bless him) and that started the matchfixing fiasco and resutled in ban of other crickeitng greats.
Why are only Indian bookmakers are involved in such things.
Why not Pakistani, Bangali or English etc.
And then cricket faired its even biggest disaster when the Indians went against the rules of ICC in their tour of SA in 2001.
Almost leading the cricket world into a depression with the Indians abiding by the rules of ICC.
With players like Sehwag and others were banned for excessive appealing which the Indians are truly known for.
And a great cricketing icon like Sachin Tendulkur accused of ball tempering almost splitting the whole cricket world in half.
And now cricket is also facing another fiasco started by the Indians not signing the contracts which is resulting into another big arguement.
Why can’t Indians just learn that they are not the governing rule of cricket but ICC is.
When they are going to realize that they have ended the careers of such cricketing greats like Malik, Jadeja, Azharuddin, Rahman, and Cronje.
God knows if it wasn’t for the Indians the guy still have been alive and captaining the current South African team.
Why can’t you people just leave us and cricket alone.
It has already suffered enough due to terrorism and nwo doing this would completely destroy the cricket world.
You are forgetting my friend - This whole Match fixing thing was started by RASHID LATIF Long before we did . BTW - Hansie was a great player - But why did South Africans ban him If he was ‘Ohh so Innocent’.
As usual, Ignorant statement by the author. He should be aware that Australians were the first one to reject the ICC terms. Well I am not surprised at the gentleman’s ignorance - After all it is the same person who says Afridi is next Richards.
Well, since when Rehman became a great player ? We didn’t end the careers of any of these cricketers - their boards did.
The last person any one could label as racist or whatever, but when it comes to Cricket India do suck and there dismissal would not harm the standard of games played. Only Sachin would be missed, and I'm sure the ICC would find a way to keep him -perhaps by making him a Lankan.
Betting is a trans-national all engulfing terror in Cricket.
Please do tell us the rules - Which Indians went against ??
Just now you said - We went against the rules , now you are saying we were abiding by the rules. Please do tell us how did Cricket went to depression by abiding some ICC rules ? Or according to you We are not supposed to abide by rules - to avoide any future depressions ??

Old Indian's habbit of make one right of two wrongs. Cant even come up with something +ive in defence.
How ignorant. Its like police catches a robber red handed and he comes up with an excuse "i was doing this because my neighbor do this too"
or may be like a child when caught eating sweets comes with excuse
"i was eating sweet because my brother did that too"
chaloo atleast your statement proves that Sachin did ball tempering :)
Excessive appealing more than any other cricketers.
Not banning Virender Sehwag and 6 other players.
Not furthering the investigation of tendulkur ball tempering when told by ICC on numerous occasions and avoided those requests to Mr. Dalmiya.
Not allowing Mike Dennesse as the match referee even though only ICC has the right to appoint a match official, not the Indian cricket board.
I would like to know how often that happens by a non Indian.
Sure every player uses profanity under frustration.
But be honest with me and tell me Indians for the past 2 decades have been appealing extremely even during the current English series.
Yes he was rightly punished and PCB investigated that matter throughly.
Remember BCCI even refused to even accept that Tendulkur was tempering.
I’m not saying he did or did not but I’m blaming the BCCI for not doing of what asked and not blaming their best player if he did any wrong doing.

Look who is talking about +ve things. The whole thread starts on a -ve note and you are preaching +veness. You want positive ?? Can you handle it ? +ve is that Tendulkar is a Batsman and not a bowler - What would he get out of Ball tempering ? Dennese the Menace changed his statement later on that Sachin was suspended ban for not consulting the umpire.

If you were watching the Indian 2nd Innings batting in 2nd test - it was the English team which was appealing at everything. Better check your facts.
