Even in local matches between two villages the opponent team is taunted because of the feeling of "WE" and "OUR" and "our team should win" feelings. Will you all call it Racism? It's overenthusiasm. Casteism is there in India but not in Sports. But regionalism is there. If the Australians had taken it sportively no problem. They are under compulsion to prove that not only Australians do racist abuses and even others do, so that they can escape accusations. That is why they make a lot of hue and cry. They are instigating the australian cricket viewers in advance that Indians should be troubled when they go to Australia, that's it.

so that is allright to do a monkey like posture. What is wrong with you and the so called hardcore fans? you can't differentiate between a game played by pros and other things....So what if the home team loses. The sun will shine from the east the next day.

There again! Is there any fixed rule how taunting should be done? It is not even sure that crowds did so. Even then in which rule book it is written that doing monkey like posture is racism ? What is the trouble with you, the way you get angry shows you may also be a member of Australian entourage 1
