Well when you have been waiting on stage for God knows how long and then you hear the commentator saying presentation is over with no trophy handed over you wonder when on earth you are going to get the trophy, hence Ponting took it upon himself to claim what was his and he did it pretty funny manner. Again if the presentation was more organized this would not have happened.
Australian Champions pushed Sharad Pawar during Presentation Ceremony!

India Lost. Lets Complain About It. Total over reaction. Bunch of whinges
From what I've seen it was just another in a long history of long, drawn out and useless Indian presentation ceremonies, can't blame the players for wanting to get it over and done with. Some would say an appropriate end to a poorly run tournament.Shailesh said:
I expect them to ask the players involved to apologise to Powar, not because they believe we're in the wrong but because everything in cricket is based around keeping the money sink happy.Shailesh said:
Ponting and certain members of the team are rude and arrogant, you'll probably find most Aussies agree with you but they haven't done anything wrong here. Of all the things you could use as an example this isn't one of them.

I dont suppose he ordered Powar to hand over the trophy,from what I made of it he was just asking the trophy to be given out so that they could get to the celebrations.
What Im saying is that ofcourse things could have been done in a quiet and polite manner,but I dont think that the incidents were all that bad as is being potrayed by the media.In any case Id be more worried about how our team is going to do in South Africa.

What a brilliant first post. It's almost like a request to be racially profiled.Aussieblitz!! said:

For *fill in swear word of choice* sake!
If you are from Asia just about every post is a case of pass me some ketchup. If you are from anywhere else it seems to be a case of "meh get over it Asia!"
End of the day nothing particularly offensive happened to either nation and just like the papers in England will make a meal of anything football related because it sells papers so the same thing is happening in India regarding this and cricket.
Would people PLEASE stop trying to base this entire non-entity around some kind of racial argument. Bare in mind that I am rather drunk at the moment and as such may be making as much sense as recalling Ganguly

* that should change the subject lol !

Ignoring these immature 12 year old comments is the best way to go, all they seem to post are either a) make no sense at all b) slightly racially profiled or c) they do no use their brains before posting. Seems to be coming quite often on this forum nowadays which is to me detering a fair amount of members away from posting in the forums.
Interesting Ponting has indicated that he is willing to apologise if he is required to do so. I'd also expect Ponting to apologise to maintain CA's close ties with the BCCI.

Just one question, If the Indians had won the tournament, Dravid motioned for the trophy to be passed on and Sachin Tendulkar gently nudged him out of the way (after repeatedly asking him to move). Would there be this kind of outcry from people in this forum and in India?
Doubt it...
The whole issue has been blown way outta proportion. I would expect this type of reaction If Marto had king-hit the guy.

Exactly. Anyone would think that Pointing had said "get the hell off my stage" (with something stronger used isntead of hell) and Martyn had rugby tackled the guy!Cricket_60 said:

Why are asian people taking a small stupid issue like this, and making it into a racial issue again?? This really bugs me.
If that guy was an aussie, pom or a kiwi, nothing would of been said. In fact, people would have a giggle at it.

Exactly, if you're looking to have a swipe at Australian's here because we beat you don't even bother posting, Pawar didn't even complain!.::Stevo::. said:
It's not a big deal, stop making excuses for your poor performance on the field.

Lol, i give up..... i really cant be bothered with stupid crap like this.Shailesh said:
I wouldnt call his view 'retarded'. Oh waaaaaaaaaaaait!!!! This could be racist against him!!!!! QUICK, SOMEONE START A THREAD.
The only entertainment here mate is you complaing over something as ridiculous as this. Your the only one that thinks this is a racial issue which is completely stupid and if your THAT sensitive, then sheesh, good luck in life mate. You'll need it.
