Re: Steven Smith and David Warner have been removed as Australia’s captain and vice-c
dear uncle, it is unfortunate but you have a long history of playing race card everytime a white guy is involved. this is indeed sad
at least Australian prime minister, Australian board, Australian media, Australian former cricketers and Australian public ..all of them unanimously condemned this incidence and asked to remove steve smith even though he is considered the biggest star after don bradman
now lets think if exact same incidence would have happened with Indian team or Pakistani team. imagine tendulkar, dhonie and kohli or wasim akram, inzi and razaqq being involved in exact same sort of ball tampering episode and would have caught. whole India or Pakistan would have been united on the name of nationalism to call such an incidence “a conspiracy against brown people by white people” . all kind of theories would have been drafted and all kind of analogies would have been made to mitigate the incidence by Indians and Pakistanis. when salman butt and the gang was caught red handed, i personally saw hundreds of articles in Pakistani media calling it a conspiracy against Pakistani players by Indian board and white boards so that Pakistan can lose 2011 world cup
so lets not make it a white vs brown discussion. not to mention, ICC gave these players the most punishment which ICC can give for a ball tampering issue per current laws. and CA gave a punishment to its star players which Indian or pak board cannot even imagine to implement on its star players for a ball tampering issue.
Am tired. Will reply in detail. Let me just say one thing- you have a long history of denying there is any racial bias when Australian and English umpires officiate matches involving India or Pakistan or Bangladesh vs Australia or England or even New Zealand and South Africa.
And that is unfortunate.
