Brad Hogg Wicket 2nd Test Australia vs India Day 5

[okzthen]

we had a whole generation of superstars over the last 20 years....

there is more talent coming yet... will mature well as we saw with brett lee and everyone else come through the system :) go aussies!

[Alexandar389]

thats a very very good catch

[EveryoneIsANerd]

Everyone hates the Australians. Maybe because nobody can beat them. Everyone needs to stop being such sooks and just play the game. The umpires do the best they can, and then people give them a hard time when they make a mistake. It's easier to judge things from your couch than out in the middle.

[mymentor]

It certainly is, which is why a 3rd umpire (on a couch, if he so wishes) should be correcting the errors of the field umpires. I don't hold any bad feelings towards umps; but the simple fact is that umpiring cannot be done accurately by the naked eye. Time and time again we see this to be true. I'm more interested in having the right decisions made than preserving the 'sanctity' of tradition.

Oh, and I guess the "nobody can beat them" thing shouldn't be a factor any more.

[Numina1988]

ya. no one cud beat them when they had their way with it - never walk even for blatantly clear dismissals, threten umps to give decision in their favr, cling onto batsmen to prevent them frm running, claim grounded catches etc. once india showed the world how bad cheaters the aussies wer, things changed. the world started taking notice nd the aussies had to play proper- which is when they strted losing.

[varunvarun88]

cheats like aussies can win 16.....oh even 100 in a row

aussies dont deserve to play cricket......

[MukumLimbu2]

The main reason why the aussies have won so many times since the early 1990's is not because they cheat but because they have prouced some of the best cricketers of the modern time. Warne, McGrath, Ponting, Gilchrist, Hayden, Stuart Clarke, Mike Hussey, Steve Waugh and Ian Healy are all mordern legends and some of them are the greatest players who have ever played the game.

[38Sport2002]

cheats?

it's called the desire to win at all costs, within the law

players dont umpire, it's that simple.

agreed with the below poster

dont forget andy bichel & brad hogg - two unsung heroes

[deNorbury]

talk about an unbalanced nation. your cricketers lose and then u have to blame it on the umpire. then when that isnt enough call the aussies cheats. what did the aussies and ricky ponting do wrong? u indians didnt say anything when sreesanth was given not out in the dieing stages of the third test against england which cost england the series. guess who was the umpire then. bucknor. the english didnt even complain then and good on them. any player is allowed a bad day so why isnt an umpire.

[peterday1]

India,

CANT BAT CANT BOWL

Oh wasnt we the ones who took the game to the Third World and y is that the Third Worlders always ask our best players to go to there shit hole and show them how to play.

COME ON TELL US India, WHAT IS YOUR SPOT THAT THE WORLD LOVES CANT THINK OF ANY DIDNT THINK SO.

@peterday1

lol such a loser getting so wound up over youtube haha

[2506goof]

16 in a row what other team can do that certainly not the poms u chump

[eblanaken]

Ye,rickys a cheating little bollox.If you can't win fair you should go back to shaggin wallabies

[5aabii]

That wasnt out! Harbhajan should have asked the umpires and Ricky Ponting.

[TimmyJ13]

yeah ricky would have known for sure. i mean he should be consulted on all decisions, after all he showed one act of sportsmanship by not claiming a catch so he must be an honest player. never mind all his whingeing and disputing of decisions and not walking over his entire career
