Matthew Hayden & The Tale Of Obnoxious Weeds
The drama has just begun, with India entering into finals, the fear of failure for “the great chimps” of cricket (oops! did I spell it wrong?) has taken the toll. With the Ishant - Symonds ( Yeah the same guy who said “Well bowled, champ”) spat ending with a sour climax, Ponting’s opener has opened his account with “The Tale Of Obnoxious Weed”. May be, that was a “sledging tactic” to unsettle the Indians.

It’s been a bit of a long battle with Harbhajan, the first time I ever met him he was the same little obnoxious weed that he is now,” Hayden said on Brisbane radio yesterday.I get a feeling that this would not make Singh any better and the drawn cold wars would never end. He has ravished him, by saying that he keeps pushing the limits far and that’s why he has been charged more than anyone that’s ever played in the history of cricket. Hayden said he had repeatedly told Sharma to settle down and yesterday said he would like to meet the bowler in a boxing ring. (Poor boy!)
Meanwhile, Spearhead Brett Lee, tried to hose down talk of bad blood between the sides.
“If you see the way we get on with the Indian cricket team off the field it’s a totally different story,” Lee said.
” (But) As soon as we walk over that white line we’re competitive and we’re playing as hard as we possibly can.”
