If there is any truth to the statements emanating out of Australia, the Indians are in no mood to be conciliatory.
It is interesting to speculate on why the Indians are escalating this issue.
To speculate let us start at the very beginning. It started when Harbhajan either playfully or with intent patted Lee on his arse. Symonds immediately in his own words stood up for Lee. This was the flash point. Combining this incident with Tendulkar’s comment on ‘friendship’, mind you it is conjecture; I posit that Symonds questioned Harbhajan’s sexual orientation – to put it bluntly, whether he was a homosexual.
A flustered and angry Harbhajan immediately replied in kind querying Symonds sexual excesses. Unfortunately, this is where things went out of control, Harbhajan used a Punjab galli, which means ‘Mother fucker’ but when you hear it, sounds Ma…Ki.
This questioning of an hot-blooded Indian males sexual proclivities also explains why the Indian team is behind Harbhajan as one and determined to give the Australian’s as well as they get. You don’t question an Indians sexual orientation without the whole nation going up in arms.
Any other theories?
Virender Sehwag has shown support for Harbhajan Singh, saying he believed
Harbhajan never said anything racist. Sehwag also said his team would respond if
Australians start the sledging in Perth.
