Good to see there is still some common sense and justice left in this world. Hair gets a sack and the game gets rid of a umpire that brought disgrace to the game.
The ICC has reached the right verdict after all the investigations and Ricky Ponting has the audacity to support Hair, One makes you wonder after the shameful eposide where Aussies behaved like uneducated road side buffons in the ceremony of the Champions tropy that why Ponting should support this brute. The sack of Hair is good for the game and a symbol that racism has no place in the game . IF WISHES WERE HORSES THEN BEGGARS WOULD RIDE

QUOTE having a socialized behaviour is the major part of it which all Australians lack. All? Thats too sweeping. Lets say most... QUOTE Whatever the Australians did on the ceremony stage was totally foolish, they just don't have the stomach to digest big wins...... I wonder if that falls under the 'foolish' category. Ricky Ponting showed lack of manners. That is a lacuna in the upbringing, not foolishness. Damien Martyn, to my eye, didn't shove, just gently put Pawar out of the way. Thats more exuberance than anything. True, they should have waited in both instances, but I'd still put it down to the difference in cultures. We respect elders. Call them 'aap', 'chacha', and what not. Westerners call each other by first names, whatever the age. It is a cultural difference. Pointless to debate over the correctness of lack of it... Self - belief is the most potent force.
