Harbhajan, Saurav, may be the entire Indian team will charged for dissent and bringing disrepute to the game. What about Pontin's appeal for a catch, which he clearly grassed, what about Gilchrist catch taken of the pads and appealing successfully, what about Umpire Benson showing faith to a fielder, who apparently took a grassed catch, and not believing batsman attitude that the catch was doubtful? Allthese matters should be considered as Dissent and appropriate sanction should be imposed. But any body cares?

Umpire Benson had to ask Ponting because he had no choice as Steve Bucknor was sleeping at square leg and he had forgotten about third umpire exists for this match

hussey also twice given not out in the second innings.i think even mark benson,the english umpire was against the indian team apart from steve bucknor.just citing this example.benson gave hussey not out when playing back to a anil kumble delivery.the hawk eye showed it would have hit the stumps three quarters of the way up.sane benson gave rp singh out when playing well forward.the hawk eye showed the ball hardly clipping the top of the stumps.it was absolutely obvious that the umpires were against india.this was not erronous umpiring,it was a clear case of biased umpiring.the indian media should take this up.all cricketing ties with australia should be put on hold before the guilty are not punished.the australian media is going to favour australia.what can you expect from a country of cheats.and there is no need to say anything abt black bucknor.
