This statement itself shows Australian cricketers although they are the best in the world they lack something to be recognized. Indeed Indians proved that they were disciplined well to comply and then complain.After loosing the 3rd test match at Perth they were in a position to complain with sound reason that they had been victimized in the field by world class umpire steve bucknor.offcourse it had been proved that his bad decision change the entire game plan of Indians.
Everyone was under the impression that the test would be ended in a draw.Instead bucknor paved way for the Australians to win the test.It is unfair to give 2 outs without being used the facility of 3rd umpire. Indians are forced to feel that bucknor was bias.
Cricket is a gentlemen game, people say.If so, why ponting expects cricket lovers to love Australian cricketers.
Ponting to my guess is smart enough to keep his boys control.to win the match his boys behave beyond the rules of cricket in the field.This incident is treated as ugly event in the cricket world.

Autralian want to win at any cost.So they take there game to very high level.But ame can't be said about there behaviour.The test match loss was as if gifted by the Umpires.It is absolutely unfair to Indians & they have been treated like this not onece but many times.

I also think Australia won to win all the matches by hook or cook. I also agree that cricket is a gentleman's game and matches should be won because of talent and hardwork rather than bad decisions or sledging. I loved Australian team when Steve Waugh was the captain. Michael Bevan is one of the cricketer I loved the most. Ian Harvey was another cricket I liked very much. I think those were all great crickters.

Hi,
I hope here the Australians are cunning too, it is seen that Indian if risen to form they are capable to beat any country in this world. Hence they attacked Indians with a psychological treatment like demoralizing as their concentration on game is diverted and this shows the Australians are mentally well fit may be they might get a well counsellings from experts before they get into match and this might be lacking in Indian and this weak point has been attacked by the Australians cunningly finally distracting Indian world best players and finally lost the match.
