Harbhajan appeal: Cricket Australia and BCCI joint statement

Joint Statement released by Cricket Australia and BCCI following Harbhajan Singh’s successful appeal against at three-Test ban for racial abuse.

“Controversy surrounding the incident involving Harbhajan Singh and Andrew Symonds on day three of the 3 mobile Sydney Test has come to a constructive conclusion today, before the ICC Code of Conduct Commission presided over by New Zealand Judge John Hansen.

“Singh and Symonds said they had resolved the on-field issue between them in Sydney and now intend to move on.

“They said they intended to make no further comment on the issue and intended to get on with the game of cricket, which is the most important issue for each of them.

“Both captains also said they were satisfied with the outcome between their respective players and they looked forward to the cricket battles that lie ahead of the two nations which are currently the top two ranked Test nations in world cricket.

“As with Singh and Symonds, they intend to make no further public comment on the issue, preferring to leave on-field performances between the teams to speak for themselves.”
