This is how the Aussies want cricket to be played. You know hard and fair.
An example (Harbhajan walks out to bat) -
Ponting : Welcome to the crease you descendant of a truck driver. How's your mother and my kids ?
Bhajji : What ?? Is this the way you people talk to visitors to your country ?
Ponting : Yes, its called the hard but fair way of playing cricket, you c**nt.
Bhajji : Well, Im going to report this to the match refree.
Ponting : Dont bother, we already bought him. Btw, Im going to kill your family tonight.
Bhajji : This is an outrage.
Ponting : Yes, but as you can see, I havent made any racist comment so far, u illegitimate descendant of a toilet sweeper.
Bhajji : This is too much, get lost u monkey !
Ponting : Waaaaah !How dare you call me a monkey ?? Im going to run to the match refree now.
Bhajji : What ! What about all the things u just called me ?
Ponting : You cant blame us for that, we are Australians u see. Its in our culture to call people abusive names u c. We cant help it.
And since I cant face your bowling, Im allowed to make up false charges to have u removed from the series.
Thats our definition of playing cricket the "hard" way. We have to swear in order to play our cricket. I mean everyone knows in this world that unless you swear like an uneducated sailor you cant play tough cricket. You're in trouble mister for calling me a monkey.
