It was really a farce when on %u2018shilpa shetty racism issue%u2019 we cried with our full heart and now, same in case of Harbhajan. What about us? Are we not racist? Forget about Mahatma Gandhi, talk about today. A foreigner always termed as 'gora'(white). Isn't that racism based on skin color? Have anyone seen the plight of foreigner specially ladies? People keep commenting anything on them. Leave foreigners, south Indians are termed as 'kallu' and 'idli-dosa' in north, whereas, north Indians are termed as 'daal-roti' in south. People from mumbai termed as 'ghaatis' in rest of India. 'Sardars' are being joked every part of the country. 'Bihari' is an abuse, especially in Delhi-Mumbai. Want more? Write a topic on Rajinikanth/ Shahrukh/ Amitabh and see north-south mess. Write something on Ganguly/ Tendulkar/ Dravid, and see whole India jumping on each other.
Coming back to the match, it was really nice to see all TV channels gaining TRPs by playing with emotions of Indians, and terming this whole episode as question of national pride. But that doesn%u2019t alter the fact that all we needed is to middle the ball of an irregular bowler safely in last over with three wickets in hand, and we were unable to do that. Regarding %u2018Ponting%u2019s cry to refree%u2019, we can%u2019t point on him, because it was instruction to both sides to do so. Also, I am really surprised to know that Mr. Kumble agreed on %u2018captain%u2019s decision%u2019 on low-catches. Hope he doesn%u2019t do the same in future.
