    Most comprehensive defeats of Australia in their own backyard

    So the whole basis for this claim is merely what you divined from the match footage (ala Procter) and not any actual contradictory statement. Thanks for clearing it up.

    Most comprehensive defeats of Australia in their own backyard

    So there was an investigation by the umpires on-field about whether Harbhajan made a racial comment? And they asked Sachin for his version and he said he didn't hear? Where'd you get this from?

    Most comprehensive defeats of Australia in their own backyard

    What is he supposed to have said on the field? He didn't get a chance to say anything at the Procter hearing. Where's the contradiction?

    Most comprehensive defeats of Australia in their own backyard

    I have no idea whether Harbhajan said what he was alleged to have said or not. This is about the claim that Tendulkar initially said that he didn't hear the exchange at all. What is the evidence for this claim? Every report of the Procter hearing has him claiming that Tendulkar couldn't have...

    Most comprehensive defeats of Australia in their own backyard

    Is this delusion peculiar to just you or is this the standard version believed by Australian cricket fans? It was Mike Procter who in his farcical hearing, deemed that Tendulkar was too far away to have possibly heard any of the exchange. Justice Hansen in his hearing determined from the video...

    Hashim Amla- the most misleading odi stats ever

    First Off-spinner (in a half sleeve shirt) in years to take 300 test wickets...

    So you believe that the Adelaide wicket didn't offer significantly more turn than the rest of the wickets in the series? If you do then why did Lyon average significantly higher during the rest of the series? If not, how do you fairly compare his performance who didn't get to bowl on that wicket?

    First Off-spinner (in a half sleeve shirt) in years to take 300 test wickets...

    ***Official*** Australia in India 2017

    Kohli was an idiot with his accusations. But you'd have to be ridiculously naive to believe that the incident when they were caught was the only time it happened.

    ***Official*** Australia in India 2017

    There's barely a difference in their series figures.

    ***Official*** England in India 2016/17

    Yeah England getting bowled out for 250 was inevitable 8-)
