India warned for dissent
Posted: Saturday December 04, 1999 11:02 AM
SYDNEY, Australia (Reuters) -- India was warned for dissent after its stand-in captain Saurav Ganguly and Australian test umpire Darrell Hair were involved in an exchange of words on the third day of the match against New South Wales on Saturday. The pair clashed after a close decision went against spinner Anil Kumble. India coach Kapil Dev said that Hair told Ganguly: "Why first the Pakistanis, now you Indians have to do something like this?" Hair was understood to have told Ganguly that players in international games are not allowed to watch video replays on the big screen and then show dissent. India's batsmen finally showed some form and set up a victory chance as NSW were left needing 222 to win on the final day with nine wickets in hand. India, shot out for 185 in its first innings, improved to 331 in its second innings. Ganguly made 81, opener Sadagopan Ramesh 74 and Ajit Agarkar 65 not out. Paceman Brett Lee took four for 77 and spinner Stuart MacGill four for 84 on a turning pitch.
