I love cricket and play and follow it passionately. I am also a big fan of Andrew Symonds and am angry at the Indian crowds for their pathetic attempts at intimidating him with monkey chants of all things.
What Indian crowds need to learn is r-e-s-p-e-c-t for players. They are already hugely partisan and show no grace in applauding good play by the opposition. While I can understand this, there is absolutely no excuse for abusing and heckling opposition players. It just ain't right.
Cricket has always been a beautiful game played in a good spirit. Crowds need to uphold this spirit too.
For once I am going to say a big "Boo" to Indian cricket crowds.

well, didn't this ALWAYS happen in north stand in some form or the other?
Weren't you, me and a million others anyway a part of such 'intimidation', as you put it? (BTW, did you mean imitation or intimidation? Do you think he was frightened?)
But the "boo" to the audience is understndable :)
"intimidate" was a bad choice of word :)
