Sack Him Now Or Call Off This Tour

This is the blackest day in cricket history. This is worse than match-fixing. Match-fixing involved players; this ridiculous, unjust,stupid and contemptible decision to punish six 온라인카지노 players forabsolutely no reason at all (and deny them even the right of appeal againstthe decision) has been taken by the match referee, the man who is supposedto be the keeper of the flame, as far as the spirit and fairness of thegame is concerned.

The members of Pol Pot's summary courts of justice wouldhave been envious of Mike Denness' prowess: "Ah, there's a man after ourheart," one can imagine them muttering admiringly, "Let's give him Cambodiancitizenship".

There is no point in analysing this decision and comparing it with thenumber of times white cricketers have been let off with a wink and a nudgeafter varied misdemeanours. Enough of that has been done and will be donein the days to come. What we must think about now is: What should we do?And the answer is simple.

The answer is simple. Mr Jagmohan Dalmia should get on the phone and tellthe International Cricket Council (ICC) that Mike Denness must be sackedimmediately from ICC's panel of match referees. Immediately. Before thethird test. Otherwise, we call our boys home. India does not need to playanother match ever with this racist retard as match referee.

Mike Denness is a creature who would make kangaroos ashamed oftheir courts. This man must be sacked, ostracised and humiliated in public.

Ifever national honour was involved in anycricketing issue, it is now. And Mr Dalmia and the Board of Control forCricket in India (BCCI) must stand up and be counted and hold up India'shonour, and the dreams and aspirations of a billion cricket lovers. Theycannot shy away from this duty. If they do, they are to be judged in thesame coin as that miserable moron called Michael Henry Denness.
