Indians are made up of sterner stuff. They have a philosophical attitude towards praise and abuse; when they receive both they know that they asked for it by the quality of their play. If the Indian players fail on the field it would purely be due to bad luck or their bad performance. The filthy mouthings of the white skinned really wouldn't have caused it. However, Cricket they say is a gentleman's game. In gentlemanly play there is no room for negative talk on the field however direct or indirect manner it may be pronounced. The barbs leading to "mental disintegration" of the opponent players may also lead one day to a departing batsman cracking open his opponent's skull with his bat, or jacking up another on the wrong end of a stump with his liver or intestines pulled out. Perhaps just one such incident may put an end to this uncivilized rambling on the field or cricket itself may have a natural death because the white skinned people who invented this game also laid the path for its demise. Stuart Broad, a fellow WASP (white anglo saxon protestant) no wonder he congratulated Ponting for his sledging ability on the field, after all, that was one way of he could balm his swayed nerves at the hands of Australians during the recently concluded Ashes tour where the English were defeated square.
