Yeah. Pretty shoddy behaviour.

There are many ways for the Indian side to get whatever message of displeasure across without effectively holding the game to ransom.

Their behaviour is more than a little precious and I can't see how this benefits the game or the fans, which are the biggest losers out of all this.

Unprecedented and very unnecessary.

Whatever sympathy you may have held for their position (if any at all) completely evaporates in the face of what is essentially a huge temper tantrum.

I also feel very sorry for my old colleagues at ACT Cricket who were looking forward to staging a tour game at Manuka Oval in just a few days between the Comets and India. Preparations for the visit have been going for months.

Hope it gets resolved.
