Harbhajan-Symonds Issue: Experts question Ponting

Ricky Ponting is under fire for violating the Australian ethic of "what's said on the field stays on the field" as a range of experts examines the HarbhajanSymonds issue.

Sunil Gavaskar says “Is it only when the Australians give it to somebody then what happens on the field stays on the field”. Mark Taylor feared "Ponting had opened up a pandoras box" with the double standards.

Tony Greig says "Australians find it difficult to deal with some of these issues when the going is a bit tough.”
