One question would England, Sri Lanka, New Zealand, South Africa or Australia have carried on and threatened to boycott the tour and call the umpires cheats?
Agree agree agree.

India is by no means squeeky clean. Good post Quagmire.

India desperately want to be the worlds best team, they should be with a population if 1.2 Billion shouldn't they. How dare the 20 million Aussies stand in their way !

If they can't be the best then perhaps they can tell every one what to do

If not they'll take their bat and ball and go home.

None of the countries about would threaten to go home !

They also have so much power over the ICC and have for a long time, this is a horrible day for cricket.

Tony Greig has just said he would not have gone as far as Roebuck calling for Ponting's dismissal.

But says some dark corners of the Australian cricket media are often supporting Ponting on some on feild issues that they should not support him on.

I'm just starting to think of the inner sanctum of Ponting's circle of friends in sport; David Boon and James Brayshaw

Well James Brayshaw will support him 100% because they are both top supporters of the AFL football team Kangaroos. James is on the committee and Ponting is there number one ticket holder.

Also Ponting looks after his players and when there was the confrontation between Symonds and H.Singh, Ponting went up and talked to H.Singh because if it was Symonds talking to Singh it would have become a massive story and Symonds would probably be suspended as well.
