Controversy
Australia were criticised for pushing Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) President and Minister in the Government of India, Sharad Pawar off the podium once he presented the trophy to Australian captain Ponting.http://tvnz.co.nz/view/page/411749/883264 Aussie criticised for rude behaviour 8 March 2011 8 November 2006 Television New Zealand Television replays showed Martyn placing his hand on the minister's shoulder and asking him to move aside, Ponting showing Pawar his forefinger as asking to give him the trophy. Indian media described Australia as "rude and arrogant".http://www.espncricinfo.com/iccct2006/content/story/267095.html Australia under fire for pushing Pawar Agence France-Presse Agence France-Presse 16 January 2015 7 November 2006 ESPNcricinfo The Times of India reported that "Australia showed they aren't exactly polite off it too" while Indian Express headlined that "this is how champions behave when they get the trophy." Former Indian captain Sachin Tendulkar called the incident as "unpleasant" and said that "such incidents should be avoided." Indian chief selector Dilip Vengsarkar reacted that it was a "behavior from uneducated people" and called it "appalling." Pawar, however, recalled the incident "a small thing, stupid thing," and said that he did not "want to react."
