Australia’s ICC World Cup winning Captain Michael Clarke today told the Monkey-Gate episode of the famous second Test in 2007-08 series faded of proportion and India and Australia’s cricket Boards handling the DRS controversy was the way forward.
“I would be very honest about where I saw the situation at SCG at that time. I was very close to Andrew Symnods. I asked him whether he was racially vilified. It was not only about the racial vilification of Andrew. It should have ended right there continuing with the spirit of the game.Australian middle order batsman Symonds was at the middle of the controversy, but the drama started much earlier, when he was given not out thrice during his first innings score of 162.
Australia won that Test by 122 runs but the incident did not die and is now considered one of the biggest face-offs since bodyline series.
“I can guarantee you, the monkeygate chapter will not have its true picture in the book,” Ganguly said talking about Clarke’s autobiography “My Story” which he launched here on Tuesday.
“Because only a 'sardarji' will know what Harbhajan tried to say. You can call it 'monkeygate', you can call it 'hanumangate' and whatever gate you want. I was standing next to Harbhajan Singh and I know exactly what he meant,” Ganguly, who said.
