    Meanwhile, a 'Fox Sports' cricket commentator went on to demand amendments in International Cricket Council's existing light rules.

    "I thought the light was fine and they really need to change the rules regarding that aspect of the game," he said.

    "There has to be some pressure placed on the ICC over this as there was no danger at all out there. I'm standing out here half an hour after play has finished, and while it's getting a bit dark now, it was fine half an hour ago and they first came off several hours ago. People come to the ground to watch Test cricket and the light was pretty good and not dangerous at all," he asserted.

    'Fox Sports' also invited readers to comment whether poor light should be allowed to influence the outcome of a game and whether India played the match in the right spirit.

    Oz Media???!!!!By: Raj | 15-Oct-2008 Reply | Forward Just imagine what the Oz media would have said if the Aussies were batting last! Its a joke.
    True Spirit Australians???????By: Virat K. Shah | 15-Oct-2008 Reply | Forward Its really a joke to expect True Spirit/Sportmanship from Aussies, which has been proved time and again.They are the worst when it comes to True Spirit of the Game.The best example is the Sydney Test.Why did the aussie media not criticise their home team for unfair play during the Sydney Test?
    Its hard to look in the mirror.By: Brian | 15-Oct-2008 Reply | Forward We have seen Indian sportsmanship, Slap (assault) your team mates. One thing we have seen Australia do is win 4 Test series in India, soon to be 5, we have yet to see India win any Tests series in Australia.
    bean counter?By: Prakash | 15-Oct-2008 Reply | Forward exactly- this shows how desperate you guys can get to win! talking about looking at mirrors, i doubt if you have one. But never mind, just ask the south africans, west indians, sri-lankans, etc. etc. for a report on the aussie "sportsmanship". Be thankful that aussies have not been slapped yet (i hear their soccer team and tennis stars were spat on) for their continued antics out of desperation. Looks like there is a pattern here.
    Desperate?By: Brian | 17-Oct-2008 Reply | Forward Australia has nothing to prove, we have been the best cricket team in both Test and ODI formats for the last 15 years, it is India who are desperate to prove something and with their test record of the last few years they need to do something, because India are only 2 points ahead of Australia in the 20/20 Rankings and we are determined to leave India with all three Titles.
    serial cry babiesBy: Prakash | 15-Oct-2008 Reply | Forward It's a joke to think that the aussies had any chance of winning in Bangalore. These aussie journos from silly tabloids are like despos jumping up and down screaming their heads off. Don't they have anything better to do? At other times these same shameless tabloids justify everything that their players do on and off the field - take for example hayden calling Bhajji "obnoxious weed". Almost everyone in the aussie camp start to look like an obnoxious weed once they know they are not winning.
    childish tantrumsBy: Prakash | 15-Oct-2008 Reply | Forward It's a joke to think that the aussies had any chance of winning in Bangalore. If they wanted a competitive game, they would not have set a target of 300 and played on even on the last day!. These despo journos from silly tabloids who jump up and down screaming like like their backsides are on fire then go on to justify everything that their players do on and off the field.
    Aussie doomsdayBy: Swapan Chakravarthy | 15-Oct-2008 Reply | Forward The Aussie's are whingers. When they can't cheat to win, they whinge by calling others as cheats.
