India confirm lodging complaint against Hogg


SYDNEY (Reuters) - Indian cricket officials have confirmed that

they have lodged an official complaint against Australian all-rounder

Brad Hogg for allegedly abusing Indian captain Anil Kumble during the second test.
Indian cricket board vice-president Rajiv Shukla told Reuters on

Monday the complaint was lodged with the International Cricket

Council on Sunday night while they were hearing the case involving

Indian spinner Harbhajan Singh.
"The team management has lodged a complaint. Hogg used abusive

language against Anil Kumble on the ground," Shukla said.
Harbhajan was suspended for three tests after being found guilty of

racially abusing Andrew Symonds during the match by calling him a

monkey.
Harbhajan has denied the claims and plans to lodge an appeal.
Cricket Australia boss James Suthererland told reporters in Melbourne

on Monday that he had not been notified about any complaint lodged against Hogg.
