Australian Cricket team has a history of cheating
by on May 08, 2007 12:21 PM

This is not about winning or losing it is about honesty. Anyway, there is no point of talking about honest to Australian as history proves the country is populated from prisoners (thieves from England was transported to Australia) who only knows how to cheat and cheat well

This is not new (cheating) to Australian cricket team this is the second time they have successfully done it. Remember the 1981 World Series Cup. For those Australian who cannot remember (or have no brains to recall) read the following (source http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Underarm_bowling_incident_1981). The result was underarm balling was banned from international cricket, maybe we should ban Australian cricket team altogether from playing international cricket because they have done nothing but cheating so far

%u201CA controversial incident occurred in the final of the Benson & Hedges World Series Cup at the MCG in 1981 when Australian bowler (Trevor Chappell) rolled the final ball along the ground to avoid the possibility of it being hit for the six runs that New Zealand needed to tie the match. For a full account of this incident, see: Underarm bowling incident 1981.%u201D
