Winning or losing is part of the game. Cricket which is called a getlemen game and players are expected to behave in certain manner and maintain certain standard. Unfortunately there is no rule to monitor or ban or penalise the way umpire behave and their conduct on the field by ICC.
India should have called off / backed /pulled out from the match time Ponting register complaint against Bhajji as Inzuman ul Haq of Pakistan backed out when Darrel hair penalised them for Ball Tampering.
When umpire kept on giving wrong decision, they are not bring game to disrepute as per ICC and Clarke, Ponting and Symond stood even after clearing edging the ball game too not bringing the game to disrepute. The umpire relying on Ponting and Clarke saying the catch of Ganguly was taken, not bringing game to disrepute.
Everything happened as per planned as Aussies wants to make Ponting a star by beating Steve Waugh record. When they found Team India a big obstecle, they indulge in all sort of cheating. Aussies wants to win by using any means.If past is any indicator one can find several instances of Aussies cheating by one mean or the other. Match fixing is also started from Australia, Mark Waugh, Shane Warne was tested positive for doping in world Cup 2003, Greg Chappel bowled under ball the final delivery.
Aussie can not tolerate losing.
I think ICC should declare this Test match as null and void and should not be recorded in the record books and ask for a replay of the same, even without Bhajji Team India is capable of beating Aussies in their den. Infact Greg Chappell was sent to india as coach to destroy the Team India rather than building team India. Aussies fear no one at this time except team India who have already beaten them in T20, and threatening the world champion for Test and ODI.
ICC should look into the entire match and ask teams to replay, and let us see who stand where.
I'm sure someone paid Steve Buckner big bucks to make those calls. There is a lot of money involved in these matches. It is a shame when they really fool the fans with those erroneous calls but we have to eat it and move on.
Even a monkey would ask symonds out on a date caz he sure looks like one so how can you blame bhajji if he indeed made that comment
