Oh no Warnie not another one

I dont know about Australia but if we had such a scandal regarding a cricketer, there would be a public outburst and till its been confirmed no such thing happened, the cricketer wouldnt get to play for India.

I wouldnt certainly want such a player to represent my nation who is morally corrupt and would like a confirmation he is not.

Word has it England are going to be using some of these women as consultant coaches during the Ashes series - for advice on how to handle Warnie's googlies........... :D

If he is performing so well and these scandals have been hitting him for a while, how would his performance be if he did not have these scandals?

What if it was Sachin? Or Ganguly? Hypothetically speaking; would the Indian selectors feel the same way if it was either of them? I'm not defending the Aussie selectors (far from it; Warnie's behaviour is damaging in that it's very public and potentially could affect the Ashes preparation of the Aussies) but I'm not so sure you could be so certain about what you're saying if it was one of your stars. And that goes for any country.

<shrugs shoulders> Not in the least bit surprised if the allegations turn out to be true. But what else can one expect? The fellow is not a gentleman.

I think I am pretty accurate in my estimation of adultery or such associations which Warne is allegedly having. Md. Azharudding legally divorced his wife and then married another woman. Yet Indians abused and thought very badly of that.

If an allegation of such kind was to be proven against an Indian cricketer, of the status of Sehwag, Tendulkar, whoever, there would be an uproar.

Personally too, I wouldnt want the player to represent my country.

hey, our captain at one point had an affair going on the side, which the whole country knew about!! infact make that 2 captains..... and they weren't dropped; atleast not for that reason.

It may be that Warne has an actual addiction. I remember that James Woods had that kind of problem, where no matter how much he tried to resist, the urge to have casual *** with strangers was just too much. I think Michael Douglas may have had a similar condition.

I recall that the rumors were that James Woods had a huge penis, so it'd be interesting to compare notes on Douglas and Warnie's dimensions. It might explain how a chubby git like Warnie can convince an otherwise reluctant woman to join him on a bed when he strips naked.

Warne should have left his wife long ago - if it wasn't for his family, I'd have no problem with this behaviour (where it's not harrassment), and all of this has obviously been very hurtful to his wife. It's probably for the best now that he's single and can do what he wants. He certainly has no grounds to blame the press for ruining his marriage. I just hope it doesn't affect his bowling.

Likewise. Though it is slightly disturbing to consider that Warne was once (circa 1997) considered to be a serious captaincy contender.

WTF ?? What has a person's personal life got to do with playing cricket. Give Warnie a break and let him play his cricket and thank god for his cricketing talent and entertainment he provides. As far as I know Azhar was courting Bijlani for almost a decade before divorcing his wife and was never droppped because of that.

None of us are perfect, so let's not judge warnie .

I remember going to meet players in 96 and not knowing of the affair when I saw Bijlani in the hotel.

It wasnt public knowledge for a long time and Azhar did get legitimately divorced and yet faced so much of thrash from every one.

Would you say Dravid or Laxman, if they keeps having *** with different women and keeps messaging after the marriage and such is proven, he will be able to play for India and burning of their effigies and protests wont occur? Will they be able to play? No.

As some one said, different cultures, different norms.

what about ganguly and nagma...it was pretty obivous those two were going around....
i don't think a cricketer's personal life should have any bearing on whether they play or not.
warne's case is sad only because it has led to the breakup of his marriage...at any rate, he brought it upon himself...
