[cricket] Bhajji Speaks:'Aussies were busy writing books, while we prepared

Yes, in fact, before the start of the first Test, Ponting had said, 'I really think we can take them on in the field, almost a new-age type of Test cricket that can make a few of their guys look a bit old and a bit slow.'

Let him say what he wants; we are happy with whatever cricket we play. At the end of the day, we are happy with our result and let him be happy with his modern age cricket and do whatever he does. We are very happy with our cricket, whether is old age or new age. We stuck to our plans and we have done really well.

No wonder in the middle of a series, he came up with a book and started crying again, 'I have done this, I have done that.'

Even Adam Gilchrist did a very wrong thing by criticising a legend like Sachin Tendulkar in his book. Tendulkar has been such a great player for India and done so many things not only for Indian cricket but also world cricket. I think there is something wrong with him, else you would not point a finger at Tendulkar.

Ponting also tried to distract us with his book by saying various things about the Sydney Test. We had moved on from that Sydney Test but these guys were still stuck at it by writing something new in their books everyday. I had such a difficult time in Australia after that incident, I was blamed by their players and then even the crowds booed me, but I overcame everything, but it seems they have not got over it.

I think they were busy writing for their books, while we were busy preparing for the series. You can see what difference it has made.
