Aussie captain Ricky Ponting lost his cool because i) Harbhajan batted better than Ponting has done in this series. ii) Ponting wanted the record but now they cannot get it. courtesy Harbhajan. iii) India are the only team that can stop the Aussies. They have always done that. iv) Ponting does not have any sportsman spirit. At least he could learn something from Gilchrist.
P.S He has not included Gilchrist in the panel to represent the Australian team, because he knows that Gilly will tell the truth and Ponting will be embarrassed. Although Gilly has been the vice captain for many years and also is the 2nd most senior player of the team.
Also Gilly is the captain who defeated India in India, and not Ponting.
Now that is some real Ponting for the people to see.
And please note that nobody even Symonds complained on what happened. Ponting has really been disturbed by the fact that India were in a better position to win this match,and is now trying to play the game he is best at today. "Disturb the Match".

I am 100% agree with you. In india when once Murli Karthik has edged the ball he said he must should have left the crease. But I know in world cup semi final when Gilli was walked before given out by umpire he criticiesd by Ponting. And now he is mum on Symonds case.

Absolutely right.We remember how generous was BCCI when Ponting misbehaved openly with Mr. Sharad Pawar which was seen by the whole world. Icc was sleeping then!!!! because they are WHITE !!!! But still we must pray that Team India should beat this ugly Ponying's team on the field. CHALK DE INDIA.
