Whats the
by Ian Chappell on Jan 06, 2008 04:47 PM   Permalink

I think Andrew Symonds really destroyed the camaraderie between the two great crecket playing nations. Australian board should understand that why Indian board didn't complain against any other Australian player in the past. Indians always have good relations in the past like Bradman and Lala Amarnath, Border and Gavaskar, Deen Jones,Devid Boon,Craig Macdermott and Ravi Shastri,Manjrekar...Recently Sachin Tendulkar Shane Warne,Heyden,Rahul Dravid,Steve Wauge,Adam Gilcrist! I mean you could name many cricketers. Despite being tough to each other on the field they respect each other very much on the field and off the field as well. Aussies and Indian cricketers friendly relations are very old and Indians respect Australians for this quality of playing tough cricket but I don't know why from the day this 'outsider' Symonds came into the aussies side every cricketing country has some problem with his attitude. I think he don%u2019t know the difference between playing "tough" and playing "ugly and disrespectfully and winning at any cost attitude". I think there is some problem with him and aussies board should look after it and should have a talk with him about it. Enough is enough now. This guy symonds is really destroying the cricket relations between the two countries.
