NO MORE "MONKEY BUSINESS"

So atlast a very highly volatile issue came to an end. The Bhajji and Symonds issue.

Start of a Newyear 2008 in SCG Australia Indians were cruising by taking 6 wickets for 134. When Symonds was on 30 he nicked a ball to Dhoni's gloves by the bowling of Ishant Sharma. Umpire denied the appeal from were all started. Australians cheated in all respects and won the game and retained the "Border Gavaskar Trophy". After winning the test Australians felt the heat. Kumble told "ONLY ONE TEAM WAS PLAYING IN THE SPIRIT OF THE GAME". Australians thought indians would be in a fix after Bhajji's ban but powerful BCCI took care of the Indians. A simple issue was blown out of propotions and it marked the black days in cricket. Monkey is not a racial slur. Bhajji abused him with a bad word in hindi "Maa ki *****" which wrongly heard by Symonds as Monkey. Ponting as a Captain he should solved the issue there itself but as a crybaby he complained to Mike procter. I heard that Kumble has approached Ponting and told him about the after effects of the issue but Ponting forgot he has a tag of his country and he made Australians ashamed of his work.

There was a public outcry in India after banning Bhajji for 3 tests. Its obvious because Indians are more emotional towards cricket. Here in this part of the world, Cricket is worshipped as a Religion. There would be fightings inside but when it comes to cricket Indians unify. BCCI has shown their superiority in Worldcricket and made a correct thing in supporting Bhajji and threathened Cricket Australia that they would pull off of the tour. At last Bhajji won in the point of justice and Symonds and his team made as a scapegoat. I read in one newspaper that Symonds had given a interview by saying "My Blood Boils". First of all he have to see to whom he attacks. He attacked Bhajji, in India indians unified and fought back. But no Australians supported or backed the Aussie Cricket team which is so shameful as a country. Peter Rebouck who is well known writer has told that Ponting should be sacked from Captaincy. He has quoted that

"Ponting has changed the bunch of cricketers into bunch of Wild Dogs".

This shows how the Australians have played the Sydney Test and made their name and their Country's fame down.

So from now on Cricket should be played fairly and umpires should be selected carefully. And Umpires should retire after 60yrs. No more "Monkey Business" should happen again.

DHONI AS A CAPTAIN FOR TEAM INDIA

Dhoni as a captain is a good idea, because the same turmoil was occuring in South African Camp in 2003 after their first round exit of their home worldcup. Shaun Pollock was a captain for a series and Greame Smith who was 22 yrs that time was made a captain and he was successful and he groomed South Africa as world beaters.

So Dhoni can also put his efforts to make Indian team a Topclass team in near future. But Sourav Ganguly should be also considered by the board because Dhoni is young and he can succumb to pressure, so for the stop gap they should have made Sourav as a captain and Dhoni as a Vice captain so that Dhoni can be groomed for next 2 seasons.

But All's well will End well. So we can hope for the best!!!!!!!!

CHAK DE INDIA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
