Problems in 1st O.D.I Ind vs W.I

However passionate they are, it doesn't give them the right to get violent. India is one of the premier cricketing nations and it is a shame to see this happening there. The police and security should come down hard on the offenders, but I guess that's easier said than done.

Actually Gavaskar said today that the grounds in which crowd trouble is a recurrent theme, there shouldn't be any international matches....that would mean no cricket for people who can't take an Indian defeat sportingly....I think that's a good suggestion.

yes fair enough. But more important is perhaps educating them. India have been using cricket in their advertising industry, why not include a few snippets about how such incidents damage the credibility of the nation as a whole and how its wrong. Until something of the sort is done though, i dont think that ban will be justified.
