What about banning Pointing and Clarke !
by Sabyasachi Sarkar on Jan 08, 2008 10:44 PM   Permalink | Hide replies

Rasheed Latif was banned for wrongly claiming a catch in the game against Bangladesh.Then why should Pointing and Clarke be any different?Mike Procter was also adjudicating in the earlier instance of banning Lateef.Different rules for different folks?If this is not racism then pray what is?After being allegedly branded a racist is no monkey buisness!

Apparently no complaint has been lodged on this point, and it may be too late now.

Why to complain? Its job of the match refree to see...Ur opposition captain has openly said that match was not played in true spirit what else match refree wants?

Proctor banned Latif for diving in front of slip, dropping the ball in mid-air, picking it up off the ground thinking the umpires couldn't see and then claiming the catch.

You're honestly trying to compare when Ponting had the ball in his hand the whole time (even though I agree it was not a catch because the ball touched the ground before he had full control of his own body as required by the rules)?

Cheers
Michael
