I am not too sure if Cricket Australia or Ponting or any of his team members know what is Spirit of Game...Every team wants to be loved but you have to EARN IT!

For Australian's....WIN at any cost is the attitude n they dont want to b name as a looser for a single game....n this attitude led them to Win by unfair means on ground...which is not only shameful at their part but also shameful for the ICC, which claims to b the higher most authority for solving such issues... Spirit of the Game was not broken by these few men frm CA, but also by the ICC and all above Indian Cricket Team who r still their for the rest of d series...Also Kumble shud nt hav commit any unwritten verbal agreement wid Ponting which led to this all scenario.... still spirit of the game can b maintained if ponting confess abt the past and ICC slap him a ban as they dd to Rashid Latif of Pakistan for series wid Bangladesh in 2002-2003
