Are you guys Gentlemen ?. NO



The wait is over: Australia win the Champions Trophy for the first time.
They are easily the best cricket team in the world simply because they perform when it matters the most!


I however found the on field behaviour of this team irritating. It reached its maximum during the presentation ceremony.Mr Ramiz raja, the person incharge of announcing the presentations 'forgot' to announce that the TROPHY would be presented to Ricky Ponting by the President of BCCI,Mr Sharad Pawar and concluded the presentation ceremony abtruptly.

What happened next was actrocious. Ricky ponting pointed his finger at the trophy and and pulled it from Sharad Pawar with such arrogance that he was standing perplexed there and then obivously took time to move of the stage due to his age factor.Then couple of Aussie players pushed him outside the stage !.I cant understand why the players could not ask him move politely.

I just imagined that if something like this happened to the president of 'Cricket Australia', it would have become an big issue. I want the ICC to look into this matter very seriously , but i know this would never happen.

The Aussies are true champions but I doubt whether they are Gentlemen !
