Former player Nasser Hussain finds himself in trouble for shooting comments against Indian players. In a new controversy that may well snowball into a big issue, the former England captain called the Indian fielders 'donkeys' during the Twenty20 match on Wednesday September 1 at Manchester.
The remark came after Parthiv Patel misjudged a catch off the top edge of Kevin Pietersen's bat.
"I would say the difference between the two side is the fielding. England are all-round a good fielding side. I do believe that India have few...3 or 4 very good fielders and one or two donkeys in the field still," Hussain said.
The comment evoked a storm, with several former Indian players and cricket experts slamming Hussain for making such an irresponsible and highly derogatory remark.

It is an insult to hardworking donkeys after such a poor performance in the tour.
