SYMBHAJAN

I am sure all of you must be bored of seeing and hearing a lot about these two guys on TV, newspapers, blogs, cafetaria, etc. I am not here to bore you with some more of them. I shall not discuss about who was right and who was wrong. I am an ordinary cricket fan who loves to watch the game for its "glorious" uncertainties. From whatever I know and understand about the game, I believe you will also second my thoughts:
By replacing Mr.Bucknor for the third test, the ICC accepted that its representative has committed a (lot of) mistake(s). This puts to rest whatever little doubts I had about whether the alligations (That Mr.Bucknor has been making these mistakes against a particular country deliberately) made by the BCCI were correct. That is not the point. The point is, what about the result of the match? Since the sport's governing body has accepted that it could not conduct the game in all its fairness, should this match not be abandoned or declared void of result?
This is not the angst of an Indian cricket's fan but more the words of an angry cricket lover.
