ICC and the art of being biased

ICC has once again proved how biased it is in favor of Aus and against Ind.

Ricky ponting got fined 20% of hs match fees after Nagpur test since his team was two overs behind. He was fined the same amount after Perth test in Jan 2008 as well. He & his team has been adjudged guilty of a Level 2 breach twice within same year. As per ICC rules, the penalty should be for a Level 3 offence meaning a ban for at least one match. Gautam Gambhir has been penalized in the same way (read my prev blog) but not Ponting. Ponting is a serial offender as far as over rates are concerned but ICC treats him with kid gloves since he is Australian.
Similarly, Cameron White was caught changing the condition of cricket ball during Nagpur test but there is no action taken. Had there been any Asian player caught doing the same thing, there would have been a penalty immediately. But ICC will still sleep over it.
