third world countryBy: virender nayar | Sunday , 16 Nov '08 17:25:30 PM Reply | Forward There is no doubt that India is a third world country,we are Indians we talk like Indians we behave like Indians and there is nothing wrong with that.If Hayden expect us to behave like Europeans how can it be possible when the Indians go to Aust. they don't expect the Aussis to behave like Indians,India and Indians go about in their life at their own pace,Hayden has been here too many times to know that and if he does'nt accept that ,then he shold not tour India as they say no body has a rope around his neck.
Inida is not a third world country anymoreBy: mnik | Monday , 17 Nov '08 2:50:39 AM Reply | Forward If you are still referring to India as a third world country and aggreeing to what that redneck country bumpkin has said , then you are equally moron like him. If u referring to third world conditions existing in India such as filty streets as though that is the only criteria for judging the country's economy. Take up some part time education , so u know where India stands in terms of its growth . If u find the streets dirty or roads not in proper condition, then organise mass protests against the authorities to improve them. Also become a member of some groups such as Lions club, Jaycees ( not usre if they still exist) , or whatever and start cleaning campaigns. Actually Australia has nothing else besides clean streets.
RacistBy: Mark | Sunday , 16 Nov '08 16:44:46 PM Reply | Forward Hayden may known as good bats man in future,but never ever as a good person,he is a No:1 Racist in the world

Hayden is a mental caseBy: nishu | Sunday , 16 Nov '08 11:59:47 AM Reply | Forward Hayden needs counselling as he is not able to accept the defeat at the hands of so called third world country. f.. him
Hayden u poor manBy: vrisika | Sunday , 16 Nov '08 11:43:57 AM Reply | Forward If u cannot take your defeat gracefully, dont play competitive sports . Instead, play cricket with your parents in your fenced backyard.U third rate person!
Hayden dont ever think of coming to IndiaBy: radhika | Sunday , 16 Nov '08 11:21:53 AM Reply | Forward Actually Australia is a country which can be called third world because majority of its population are thumb impressionists Also they are alcoholics, drug and s.. addicts.
Hayden lives in third worldBy: Naren | Sunday , 16 Nov '08 11:10:37 AM Reply | Forward The economy of a country is not determined by the cleanliness of its streets . If you observe the prison cells, they are always clean and tidy just as the streets in Australia.
Hayden needs History lessonsBy: Melan | Sunday , 16 Nov '08 10:32:38 AM Reply | Forward Thanks Hayden for enlightening Indians about our Thirld World status and culture.This from a guy who hails from a country which was used for dumping convicted criminals not long ago and where spectators run naked on the pitch during the matches!
Is India a third world country???By: vrisika | Sunday , 16 Nov '08 10:31:52 AM Reply | Forward Why are we blindly accepting what that uneducated moron is throwing at us. The term third world was used in the 50's by the french for asian countries including India. INDIA HAS THE GDP GROWTH OF 8% PER YR WHICH DOES NOT PLACE INDIA UNDER THE CLASSIFICATION OF A THIRD WORLD .This growth is higher than that of australia. MR NAIR, YOU OUGHT TO GO BACK TO SCHOOL ALONGWITH HAYDEN
