The Harbijahn-Symonds fiasco, changed his story at the appeal claiming to hear exactly what Harbijhan had said, even though footage showed him nowhere near the incident.

Don't confuse the issues though, as a batsmen he is in the top 3 I have seen. I also have never met him so it's just an opinion I have formed, have met Dravid though and found him excellent.

Ok-- that one; sorry for a moment I was thinking about something about the English tour. Yes, that was an interesting incident indeed to say the least. That was a big one while at the same time quite complicated. He did stick with his mates while I understand how the Aussies might have been hurt by his stance. By the way, if you don't know, 'monkey' is a petty insult for Indians; it has absolutely no racial undertone. Just like Thumbs Up in Indian terms would mean 'thenga' or zero, nada and is actually quite negative.... But the fact that Bhajji was involved in that incident makes it a bit more complicated ;)

22 years of hard work and that 'controversial' incident made him a absolute villain....that is really sad.

What do you then think about Greg Chappell, Lillee, McGrath etc?  :)

The list will go on.

But I do understand where bigboy is coming from though to be honest. I think the Tendulkar fans in Australia were more hurt because it was Sachin himself. I mean I do not know of another modern era player who has played for such a long time with so little controversies  :)

At last some resistance from the Indian batting; even if they can manage to bat out the day that will be a positive start.

Just wanted to know whether bigboy thinks Mike Hussey embodies everything in Aussie cricket, ie. when he walks (not) every time he's edged the ball and been caught :)

He is under the illusion Australia are the only team that dosen't walk, walking is the exception rather than the rule for all countries, the tit for tat would be endless and has nothing to do with my reasons for not being a fan of Tendulkar.
