BAJJI RELEAVED OF RACISM ISSUE


Hi guys.i am happy to share this article . Indian off-spinner Harbhajan Singh was cleared of the charge of racially abusing Australian all-rounder Andrew Symonds during the second Test in Sydney. The Indian cricket team will continue its tour of Australia.Appeals Commissioner Justice John Hansen, acting on a joint statement from the Indian and Australian camps tendered as an agreement of facts, reduced Harbhajan’s sentence (for an offence) from Section 3.3 of the ICC Code of Conduct to Section 2.8, which pertained to the use of offensive or abusive language but which was not racist in nature.Harbhajan was fined 50 per cent of his match fee by Justice Hansen but the three-Test ban imposed on him by match referee Mike Procter was lifted. He will reveal his reasons for arriving at the verdict on Wednesday.cheers for our success in this issue.
