Sportsman Spirit gone for a toss!!


                                                                                   Who Says Cricket Is A Gentleman's Game?

Sehwag is deliberately denied of scoring a century by Sri Lankan bowler Suraj.This is an end of true spirit of the game.Sri Lanka Cricket Board once said "we hate controversies and we try to remain away from it".
Where are the promises of playing fair with sportsmanspirit gone for Lankans?
The punishment should be intense with a 5 match ban on Suraj's career.
I never expected that Lankans will be ready to put their ICC Spirit Of The Game Award at stake for such a disgraceful act.

  2. Strong comments. This reminds me of the time during the multan test against pakistan when rahul dravid declared the match despite tendulkar needing just 6 runs more to get a double century ( the match when sehwag scored 309 ). Unfair of rahul to do so and deny sachin a double, though we still won the match. No one questioned that time and it left me disappointed.
