Andrew symmond the T20 specialist a powerful hitter, active fielder and reliable bowler is out of Australian squad. It seams like one disc of backbone is taken out. Australia will definitely suffer from this blow.
Andrew Symmond was sent back to his country after senior players meeting. He was found of breaching the rules and regulation of the team. He again was found in consuming alcohol more than the moderate quantity. The cricket lover will miss his action.
Previously he was also banned for couple of months due to his alcohol consumption habit and this time again he did the same act. I think he needs a proper counselling to get rid of this habit. However it is a big loss to Australian squad and definitely a gap has been created in Australin squad and now the team does not look balance in all three departments of fielding, batting and bowling.

No doubt the uncrown king of cricket is Australia but now it seems the supremacy in cricket world of australia is being challenged by different teams. The team which hardly lose a match previously is being defeated by other teams on several occasions from T20 world cup to CW series.
The reason behing those defeats is only one, the most of the player are old enough to carry on their momentum consistently. Australia really needs some fresh faces but of same quality as Mcgrath, Shane Warne, Martin etc
The quality of bowling which australia hold previously is not of that standard now a days, while same goes to batting too in some sense. The Australian are relying too much on old players which is affecting their performance and in future they may face a new challenge as inclusion of sudden new players will affect the combination.
I just termed the Australian team as old horses but these old horses rule the cricket world for more than one year which will always remind us of great cricket players.

Harbhajan Singh a turban man has been cleared by the ICC of racism remarks charges against Andrew Symond Australia. According to the ICC there were insufficient proof of accustaion. It was unclear what he said to Symond.
Some of the Australian former players are angry on ICC for clearing him of charges. They claimed ICC is being hijacked by Indian cricket board due to monetary pressure on ICC. India is a big source of income for ICC. The Australian former players said money speaks and ICC is scared of Indian board.
It is known that Ricky Ponting and Tendulkar sent letters to ICC appeal commissioner in which they wrote that Harbhajan did not use the racist remarks rather he used abusive language. Symond also failed to deliver a statement which went against Harbhajan Singh. Symond said he cant remember what he said.
Earlier ICC intended to use the microphone recording at the stumps but this option was rejected by Indian board. So ICC clear Harbhajan Singh on the ground of not much evidence against him.

The preparation for the final test match between India and Australia is at final stages. The most interesting thing is whether Harbhajan Sing and Tait will be included in India and Australin squad.
The Adelaid wicket may help spinners. This game will be of nerves as India is determined to level the series while Australia is looking for 3-1 win. According to the reports the Indian players have some rift which the vice captain Dhoni denied. The rift came when Ganguly and dravid were dropped from the Indian one dayer squad by the Indian selectors.
India captain Anil Kumble has revealed that the squad for the One-Day tri-series in Australia should not have been announced in the middle of the Test series, saying it’s tough on the axed seniors.
So far, Kumble had refrained from commenting on the ODI teams’s selection and particularly the exclusion of Sourav Ganguly, Rahul Dravid and VVS Laxman.
He said the timing of the announcement was far from ideal. But he hoped the senior players would shrug off the disappointment and stay focussed on the Test.
Anil Kumble also spoke of the One-Day team that was picked for the tri-series a few days ago, saying it was time to move on with the game.
“I think the team members will be disappointed for not being a part of the on the One-Day squad, but if you look at the team and the squad who don’t make it, they have played enough cricket to understand that this match is crucial, not just for us, but for Indian cricket. So, if you have to stay in this series then it’s important that we put up our best possible effort,” Kumble said on the eve of the fourth and final Test at the Adelaide Oval.
