Ponting and the Zimbabwe rag, The Herald: Delusional!!!!!

Astonishing is the word....

Haddin "got an apology via text message from Daniel". This is the latest from Australia Captain, Ricky "Punter" Ponting. The said apology is of course over the "alleged" (right) disturbing of the stumps in the first ODI between Australia and New Zealand a couple of days back. Forget the fact that no self respecting Black Cap is ever going to apologise to the Aussies, but an apology over something this big!! An incident which is rivalling the Trevor Chappell underam incident for space in NZ right now. Ponting is clearly delusional, and needs help. Forget sending Symonds for treatment, get Ponting some Brain juice.

He backs Symonds over every disaster over the last couple of years, incidents which happen faster everytime Ponting stands up for Symonds. Wake up dude, Symonds is a drunk nut case easily riled and willing to shoot his mouth off.

Remember the infamous outburst against the journalist who dared question whether Ponting had taken a catch cleanly in Sydney!!! Everytime a case is made against this man he gets into a defensive funk faster than symonds can leap towards a beer.

Forget the rest, send him to a shrink!!!!

The next masterpiece is from The Herald....after Zimbabwe defeated the mighty Kenyans (gasp, the surprise is real. how did they beat Kenya, match fixing officials please take note. i suspect kenya was bribed with 300 billion zim dollars, just enough to buy a beer in Zim, unless Andrew Symonds got there first), they have been busy showering accolades on the board. Incredible. What kind of delusional maniac claims that Chingoka has been concentrating on building Zimbabwe cricket?

But the most damning line from the editorial was this....

With the full support of all local stakeholders — and progressive bodies such as Board of Cricket Control in India — Zimbabwe will rise again.

If theres a murky puddle somewhere you can be sure that the BCCI will be nearby busy mixing more of the said murky substance in case it starts clearing up......
