- Today we talk about a Story of Self discovery, Introspection. Inner peace and happiness
A story that starts from the Monkeygate Scandal in 2008 with Harbhajan Singh
with most of Andrew Symonds Australian Teammates standing Firm besides him Including Matthew Hayden Rickey Ponting and Michael Clarke.
With Australia Nearly winning it all
but then
the ban gets reversed
Symonds gets admonished
and it seems like Cricket Australia has thrown Symonds under the bus
Symonds feels betrayed and trampled on
and he loses himself in his sorrow
What follows is a 2 year long Self Destructive phase where Symonds does nearly everything to Sabotage Himself.
from avoiding meetings to to going on rants on Interviews to even Brawls...to when Finally on the T20 world cup
he is sent home with his contract Cancelled
Symonds then swears off of Cricket
Here though....there is another journey going on.
Through his record high 5.4 crores price tag in IPL 2008
the highest of any overseas player, right on the heels of the Scandal.
through Playing in Ipl alongside youngsters
and even winning the 2009 IPL with Deccan Chargers
Symonds has been on an journey of himself
A journey that shows him exactly what he is
and the journey that makes him utter the words on the title of this video.

His words did came true. The fitter our team became the more dominant we were.
Hmm....and virat kohli is the reason
@@ayushmannegi8515 I don't think so..virat is really fit guy..but we can't say rest of Indian players before him didn't have that level of fitness... Sachin , dravid , Ganguly, kapil dev , ms dhoni , yuvraj singh , they were really fit as well. Yuvraj Singh even played WC with cancer in his body. No doubt, virat is one of the fittest guy, but he is just ripped and he is out of form since 2-3 yrs, I can't even recall the last time he played good innings. I feel sad sometimes looking at him these days.
@@ashutoshj785 Dhoni Yuvi and all were really fit but then kohli had a great influence on other people's fitness. Just look at how our fielding is now compared to the previous decade and talking about his form yeah he is struggling with it but then even at his absolute worst he has scored the highest runs for India compared to other players
@@nithinbhandari9115 agree... There is new aggression in fielding in this era.
@@ashutoshj785 bro I didn't mean that......after vk hai appointed as captain whole team india has reached that level......
He didn't say anything wrong and we are still lazy. RIP Legend
nofit besharma 😔🙁
Accept Virat Kohli i would say everything is lazy in Indian cricket team
@@Viren9 Bhai Rohit Sharma ko dekha hai kya 😂
Yeah ! May be...but still we are too hot for these hardworking kangaroos & these blokes must be having a good time dancing to the tunes of Indian Spinners.
Best of Luck🤗
@@Viren9 ? Just because someone does not have a visible six pack means they are lazy dude. Thats a very immature comment lol
“Someone flawed” - we all are.
Laziness has killed so many dreams. It has had an immeasurable impact on all of our lives.
Thank you for your words , rooshdawg2507
He was never wrong, his behaviour was the result of how his board handled a player like him.
Rest in peace Andrew, you were a great man and I'm happy you're now free from all the stress and anxiety that people put you through.
😢
Thank you for your words RainaAbin
He was right about fitness of our players. There was a huge difference in the way we used to field and how Australian and English players did! We have seen major changes in our team since the time we have started taking fitness seriously. It was harsh criticism but it was true!
I don' think this culture change happened due to Symond's harsh works Some people suggested that it happened because of the influence of Virat Kohli I don't think that's true either, Virat might've motivated some people but not all, because if he was the sole motivator for people getting fit in indian cricket his influence might have been localised to few players who were around him and not as wide as every cricketer being fit. This change was due demands of the modern game as if you are not fit you literally cannot play the 3 formats. Plus our culture also evolved as more people are into fitness than ever before. Our culture was moving towards.
@@aryavart296 it didn't start from virat lol..it started when board dropped the overrated fatties from the team after the world cup disaster...the message was clear, be fit or whatever legend you are, you will be thrown out of the team
Jameen asman ka fark tha bhai
Due to Chokli , we are the fittest team but vadapav hasn't done it yet
@@aryavart296 dude the original poster said in simple english that Symonds was right, he didn't anywhere mentioned that the change happened due to Symonds' criticism yet u took it upon urself to write a long ass essay to justify sth which was not needed.
2000’s Australian cricketers were pure gold in terms of cricket
Their passion attitude everything was just gold standard
Yeah and the umpires were with them cheering and supporting them in all finals.

@@lakshmidevi0123 he is making fun of the comment
Indian audience embraced Andrew Symmonds a lot. .I think he lived by his own terms, self-respect and dignity were paramount. Great guy..miss him
Thank you for your words Praveencapri
Despite not being able to see him play, His passing was shocking. One of those players that will be in my book of cricket as a Legend forever.
My book of cricket. Chutiya kon si kitaab likhi tune😂
Because he was very unique and aggressive batman .
Being a early 2000s cricket fan, I never really liked Andrew Symonds for the incident and the way he sledged Indians, but one thing I always loved about him was his cricketing talent. He was such a treat to watch. But knowing other part of story really makes me think about me hating him that time. He'll be missed. RIP Andrew Symonds
dhobi was worst than symonds.
Actually he was sledged by the Indians and the Indian crowd first , when Aussies came to India in oct 2007 l, I think . And I also believe that harbhajan did throw some racial slurs towards him .
Good riddance
@roshan Exactly my feeling too. I idealised him for his fielding and the energy he brings. Hearing his other side makes me rethink about my hate towards him.
Mate he was sledge by the Indians first
And this is how I'll remember him from now: Never compromise your principles and values for the sake of pleasing others.
During my childhood.. every time India played against ausis, i still remember this is the man who did his best each and every time.. at that time I always pray to god to just get him out or injured.. I was 12 year old then.. he was a legend
I used to hate him with such fervor back then. Him and Matthew hayden are like bogeyman.... Constantly taking matches against from us. It took a look time to look past that instinctive dislike. But once it happened. The greatness of those two was playing to see
Every batsman worth his salt had a field day against Indian bowling at that time.
🤣🤣
Scoring runs against India was test of nothing.
@@Samsung-zg9ql what are you saying....it is not like that
@@souravpaul2179 yes...he was a good alrounder but scoring against India was not a big deal at that time.
Forgot Adam Gilchrist 😄😁😁😄
We indians may have hated him for him being a beast of the kind he was. But down deep inside we wished we or our team had one of his kind. R.I.P Symonds.
It's not hate, it's the fare of his batting
When he said If Indian focus on hard training for being Fitter, Stronger, more aggressive they can dominate the World Cricket, I got goosebumps, bcz he was Right. And that was the exact difference between that era of Indian team & Australian teams. Well the Aggression started by Ganguly, and then What MSD & Virat brought as the strict Fitness culture & to top it, the Aggressiveness of Kohli- and we witnessed that we were No.1 Test Team for 5 Yrs straight & also in Top Spots in White ball cricket as well. He was right, the aggression, that attitude was required which was missing in some players..
I think aggression and fitness goes hand in hand, when you are fit aggression comes naturally. This fact is even backed up by science, excercise increases the flow of testosterone in the body which leads to aggression, and you can't fake aggression.I don't think aggression was started with Ganguly, Ganguly had an attitude of not taking shit from anyone, which the earlier captains with due respect lacked. Dhoni was and still is a great tactician plus also had a knack of extracting great performances from players on a big match day. I can't really say that Virat brought fitness aspect to indian cricket, he might've motivated some people with his Instagram, because if he was the sole motivator for people getting fit in indian cricket his influence might have been localised to few players who were around him and not as wide as every cricketer being fit. This change was due demands of the modern game as if you are not fit you literally cannot play the 3 formats. Plus our culture also evolved as more people are into fitness than ever before.
@@aryavart296 Agression comes with psychology (your mind set)where as fitness comes through physically hard work..both can't goes hand in hand.
@@ROHITKUMAR-ph7or exactly aggression isn't about hormones it's an attitude governed by way person perceives things. More of a mental aspect than physical.
Then came vadapaav and the rest is history
and still couldn't win shit since 2013
What a great and honest tribute to one of my favorite players. He was a normal, decent guy who made mistakes but found himself. Respect from South Africa. Fantastic channel.
Not only Indian players, Indians in general just don't care about getting physical, getting strong!!
very true, we r happy with lov handles and man boobs.
One of those Hardworking dedicated talented champ where you don't see often..Rest In Peace legend.
Few years later what Symonds said came true! Indian cricket had marked a new bar in the international platform.
Love from 🇱🇰
Your bowling also very good
From 50 to 55 an incredible Sri Lankan success journey 👏👏
Andrew symonds always spoke the truth....India always had the largest pool of talent in the cricket world but in the 90s and early 2000s the team was still developing. But surely Andrew symonds will surely be missed R.I.L
How do you know he always spoke truth?
@@kiranvanam he is antaryami
Yeah he always spoke the truth.
"Brendon McCulum is a piece of shit"
~Symonds.
Can confirm 👍
@@xavieraaaaa arey xavla you again mar kyu nahi jata tu kahi par bhi aa jata he 🤣
@@kiranvanam Australians speak truth and onface ? They are not like indians...who speak sweet on face but have poision in heart.. western people speak straight ....
He has told the truth. Except Virat kohli none of the team look like a sports man
Pandya is also very fit
@@saurabhsunny815that's why he breaks down every now & then 😂
bac in the day only yuvraj and Kaif were outstanding Fielders
yuvi was a hard hitter
Kaif Did lack strength
@@saurabhsunny815 nigga gets injured after every 10 matches. Mere lawde ka fit player.
What special has Virat Kohli achieved till now? Has he got any ICC Trophy for India through his gameplay till now?
Even Virat Kohli chokes and breaks under pressure situation. It is just media PR that has made him look great. He is a good player but not as great as he is perceived to be. He is just like any other player in current Indian team
I'll always remember Symonds as a hard hitter. Whenever he came to play against India, I would be worried sick as he wasn't the one to take singles. His crazy long sixes and unbelievable powerful shots were always replicated by us in gully cricket. A household name in India, Symonds will always be remembered as one of the best that our generation witnessed.
RIP Andrew Symonds 😞
And this is how I'll remember him from now! Cricket or I believe any sport requires the attitude he had !
this story changes everything! earlier I used to be a little afraid when he used to come out against India on the crease !
Now I have a deep respect for Symonds !
total Sigma! living by his own rules .. RIP mate .
Thank you for showing this side of Symonds. He was an absolutely brilliant player. RIP Symonds.
I remember Symonds as one of the greatest modern day cricketers ever. He haunted his opponents. It was an absolute nightmare to play against him. An absolute legend. Rest in Peace Symonds. You are missed every day.
He was right , Virat Kohli took fitness regimen in team india to next level
I felt so happy on the day he announced his retirement, just by thinking that - now its going to be easy for India to beat the Australians. He was a terrific batsman and was a night mare to the bowlers all around the world. The world of cricket misses h im so much now.
Best video on Symonds .. and one of the best on any cricketer ever... Thank You. Rest In Peace Andrew...
Everything said and done, a great cricketer of his era .👌🏻. RIP Andrew 😔
Hats off to u sir, I’ve seen a lot of content on symonds after his death from former players to other RUclipsrs but this video by far has correctly described him and given the exact picture of his mental state post monkey gate. He was flawed definitely but he is my favourite player and will remain till my end of days and this video is not a tribute to his playing days but actually an insight to his character, which makes this video different from other videos. Thnx a lot for creating this video in this manner, I really enjoyed it🫡
He used to play aggressive cricket ....was a very competitive player ...like him for the skills he shows ,dislike him because of the incident ....but definitely a great all rounder
racist guy just like Dhoni.
Great player
I had tears rolling in my eyes watching this. His interview was so blunt and honest. Rightly said passionate and flawed nothing wrong but the way he was he was perfect
Amazing documentary. Keep it up! Amazing way to remember our legendary beloved cricketers. I was his huge fan and always liked watching him play. His passing came as a shocker.
RIP! You entertained us all. Thank you.
When i was a kid he looked like a monster to me. Fearless cricketer mindset. Aussies had the best line up at that time so he was thrown out
I think this has to be the best tribute one could give him . Well done man!! A great video you've made.
RIP Legend you will always be remembered the kind of talent uh had ❤️❤️
He is perfectly right. And it took 2 decades for us to bring that transformation in our fielding.
I loved this man, 2007 was the first time i saw him, started watching cricket and loved him from the very beginning! My family knew that if he's playing, I'm not gonna support India at all, well I'm gonna miss him❤️
He could have been the greatest All rounder, but still I'll remember him forever ❤️
In hearts of hearts he was an innocent soul who just loved to enjoy life and loved his mates dearly. He was a supremely talented and gifted athlete but a regular bloke at heart who hated the limelight. God bless his soul. RIP legend.
Your story telling is the essence of what sets cricket apart from other sports. It’s depth of psychology and characters, your insights enrich the tapestry for all and inspire me. Thanks.
RIP Roy
I remember of him exactly this way 🙏🏻
You touched a deep chord with this one 🙌🏻
When monkeygate happened I was just furious on Symonds and the run he scored despite being out twice or thrice and the way the Aussies behaves after the match. But after watching this epics story I have some sympathy for Andrew Symonds. Whatever happen I am still a fan of his cricketing skills. Thanks bro for a great story which few people know.
nah bhajji definitely was young blood so he could have used racist words
@@0777x when God(Sachin) said nothing happen like that then stop these nonsense now.
@@saugatsatpathy2502 ?? U never know ryt?? He could've used unknowingly too
@@vedavidhyam5860 May be but it’s too late for any type of argument,14 years past and one of the two player already died & there are many new controversies that need attention and many more yet to come.So let’s move on from May be or may not be😀😀🤨🤨
@@saugatsatpathy2502 yeah this is also equally true 😀
RIP symonds. I had a wallpaper of him in my room. He was an amazing persona and a super talent. He was in T20 mode even b4 T20i started. Amazing attitude. He could have been an amazing coach
In India, we Majority percentage of people are LAZY in all sectors, be it in Education(homeworks, assignments) , sports(workouts, practice sessions), govt job, pvt job(Updating to new technologies) & etc. But slowly now its changing but it takes lot of time as our system is designed in such way.
You talking about yourself?
@@arpitshivhare217 no he is talking about the unemployed you..
@@tiger1995grvr he talking about silly people's from villages like u
You might have some truth in that statements, but that's a really "lazy" generalization.
@@kaushikranade6193 its ur opinion & u need to change ur thinking approach, but in my Hyd deccan all ranji players are like tht only.
I used to respect him as a player a lot.
After watching this
Respect has reached its peak
When the "monkey" incident happened I remember in conversation we thought it was "Ma Ki!" that was probably said. I understand Symonds position in the moment. I also understand that Harbhajan wouldn't have said monkey.
As for him calling the players lazy... compare those players to today's players. Leaps and bounds in fitness, fielding, core strength and endurance. HE WAS RIGHT but harsh in his delivery. And India and by default Pakistan, Bangladesh and Sri Lanka, have better quality in their players.
Harbhajan said "Mainu Ki?" In punjabi, means Mujhe kya? But that Monkey heared as Monkey.
@G R Honestly, Harbhajan is a emotional and angry young man type. We all know that in the India team there are camps and while Sachin is the truth embodiment of a gentleman in the sport, Harbhajan is a product of Dadagiri. Human stories tend to have human emotions and flaws (jumping to conclusions). For fans of India and Harbhajan he kept growing and improving as time went on and Symonds lit a fire under young Indian players who now are without a doubt proving to be the most fit and deep international team.
monkey is nothing word dont compare black racial profiling to monkey because in india it is normal harbhajan was innocent and symonds was one who intimidated and abused indians
"Someone fascinated, Someone flawed" , Well done !
i still remember me loved watching his batting and Even one of reason to support Mumbai Indians in those early day. one of me admired guy with a hell lots of talent. rest in peace legend
Excellent documentary. I love how an Indian has taken a factual and human view approach to this . Andrew symonds had a clear heart
He was a good man who made some wrong choices in life and redeemed himself from that. Lovely tribute.
My love for this channel multiplies invariably, everytime there's a new video. Beautiful content, sheer brilliance.
RIP legend I miss your astonishing batting bowling you were the complete package of Suprise. Greatest nightmare for indian team😊
A very well-written piece on a great cricketing legend. Empathetic yet balanced.
Upfront, straight to the face and part of every major controversy but yeah this is how he was
Agressive, passionate,hard and yeah a clean and clear heart without thinking bad about anyone
Always stood what felt right and true to him
Such attitude is beyond this century ♥️♥️
Very talented player, truth to his world , a sledger , 90 kids like me will be miss him RIP
😂😂😂 still true after watching today's fielding performance by ind in wc 2023...
I like his way of commitment. I think it is this push that has changed the game in recent years in India.
Loved him long before he made his international debut. He was always special. He was about to get into serious coaching. Cricket's going to miss him. He's always been my favorite fielder apart from being a supreme athelete. And he was on point when he made that comment about laziness. We can all see the difference now. RIP Roy. Gonna miss you always ❤️🙏🏽
RIP Andrew Symonds. Thanks for the memories and for calling out the lazy Indians and helping make them a better outfit today.
He can bowl spin he can bowl medium he is the best fielder of his erahe can batted at any position at any circumstances whether it's test odi or T20 one and only...THE LEGENDARY "ANDREW SAYMONDS🔥🔥🔥
He spitting facts. Australia's massive victory proved it.
Definitely!
Everytime he is in the pitch, he shows what aggressive cricket is. His attitude just hits different. But I remember the match against Pakistan in 2003 world cup and thats what Andrew Symonds is all about. #RIP ROY
The classic problem with Geniuses like Andrew, they can deliver in superlative if they are passionate but… if you can not keep them motivated, then nothing . It’s all or nothing .. nothing regular or Business as usual are just not the words that exist in their lives
Everyone makes some mistakes. But this man was a legend.
He was always great to watch, a genuine complete cricketer and, according to Ponting, the best fielder ever. Miss you Roy❤.
Most of the Indian doesn't liked him after that famous incident ....but there is always an another side of a person
Thanks for bringing that out in front of us
A great player ...RIP 🙏
Ngl he was a fabulous player in different aspects with bowling, batting, and fielding. Roy was a strong bloke btw your content is awesome.
My sincerest tributes to the LEGEND!
Andrew Symonds, The man who gave it all
He was one of the great players of 2000s bad boy Australia team. RIP
Virat must had watched this interview which led him to realise that only talent is not enough at world level of cricket, fitness counts equally and thus he went on focussing his fitness as well which eventually led every indian player being much more conscious about their fitness.
Respect♥️Symonds.
he was probably the most unique player australia had, his batting technique was unorthodox but he had raw power so when he hit the ball it stayed hit and he was quite handy with the ball too but his fielding was top notch he was so good on hitting the stumps when he was fielding i still remember that robin uthappa run out in 2007 t20 wc, that was pure gem, we all will miss him, RIP Symonds!
RIP to the greatest ever All-Rounder cricket has ever seen!!

Excellent tribute to an amazing talent. Miss Symonds, huge respect to him.
Roy played 198 odi from 1998 to 2009 which was the golden era of Australian cricket. He was a warrior and he would take a bullet for his mates Roy also won 2 world cup and 1 champions trophy he was the greatest to play the game. How he can be broken man? There are perception in life some people will have great carrier some will have great family all are man made things .....for me ROY will be remembered as a great guy and true friend for his mates
Despite from these bad karmas he was a legend with immense talent with masculine mindset. RIP 💔
Say what you wanna say about his on and off field behaviour, but this thing mentioned here "passion" is something I always knew was Symmo's biggest trait. RIP sir ❤️
Edit : Thankyou for the video brother!
Well researched and well presented video. Thank you for this and keep it up!!
Great video, really well put together, very thoughtful and poignant commentary. Well done
Thank you so much for telling this story mannn. What a legend we just lost. I knew he was arrogant on the field but what he went through, mannnnn.
You are really amazing, all the research and clips you put together, making it enjoyable and informative, the only Indian cricket Channel i enjoy watching is yours
Love the video man Roy growing up was my favourite player growing up right next to warne. Now both are gone
This man has every right to call us lazy
Rest easy legend..you had it all 🖤
Back in his days, I remember he use to charge on oppositions as a Silverback representative for his Clan. He was a giant of International Cricket... A symbol of All in energy... His Catches, Fielding, aim at the wickets and the game he use to play that is totally unexplainable. People who witnessed Australian team back then would know what a real dominance of champions was once like and Andrew Symonds was certainly centre part of it with his attitude on the bench.
We don't have any player like him in modern cricket like his stature.. his presence was enough to create awe among opposite teams.. Cricket means game..He was excellent in all aspects..batting. bowling..fielding...
Ben stokes i reckon
There was a Legend named Andrew Symonds❤. He's like Rambo of world cricket, he was strong, he didn't compromise on his fitness, his name caused chaos amongst the opponents minds. You're an inspiration legend 💪
Wow, What a narration brother!!
What a voice !!
This channel is soo underrated , hope u achieve greater heights.
U deserve more!
Symonds is always a Legend of Deccan Chargers. We Hyderabadis won't forget you Roy.
a big thanks to the creator who thought to remember this destructive cricketer he is always mine favrt cricketer n most important thing his training used to make him more leathal man on field. Rip champ 🏆
More than any thing...the way you narrated is excellent...
'Maa Ki' is a more offensive word than 'monkey' for those who understand Hindi. Whatever Symonds' faults, Harbhajan had no business uttering those words. Anyways, it is good that both of them settled their differences.
Whatever harbhajan did was definitely wrong but come on Andrew Symonds and his team mates were no saints. I still remember how Australia players used to pressurize umpires, bully players. Leave harbhajan he was also aggressive but Australians had fought with players who were really calm and composed.
Even Andrew Symonds used to abuse even worse than this .
Or do you think Andrew Symonds and australians were saints or what.
If you yourself can't endure it(abuse) you should definitely not do it with others .
You should hear from Ganguly then about all kinds of sledging he received while batting.
Aussies were not saints but devils.
maa ki is NOT racist, which was the allegation at the point. Roy was the only non-white player in the Aussie side, so him being called a monkey was a racist comment. Maa ki and other similar slangs in other languages are usual on the field, I don't know what is the ICC protocol about it.
@@sagarverma1489 You are talking from an ICC rules point of view. I am talking about words that a person of high stature doesn't use. Many people hate Kohli despite his skills simply because he swears. I know the Australians aren't saints, but we shouldn't be like them.
How true he was saying that.... Infact the younger lot worked on their fitness and transformed Indian cricket
Everything you said was true about him. He was incredibly hard working and always gave his best while playing the game .
Absolutely true...during those years we had the least fit team ...
Amazing Cricketer... A Legend of the game
He deserves everything. I don't a lot about him but it makes me understand how a politics works inside and outside. Specifically in Australia its just bad. We also see the Don Bradman era this things needs to stop for the sake of healthy sports❤
We served 2023 #CW to aussies, it indicates we have lack of agressive mindset,we are having damn lazy mind as well!
RIP Andrew sir . There was no one who could be so bold about his opinion especially when it came to Indian cricketers
Australia Wale sir nai bolte... Tum log itna decency kyu dikhata
What a narrative brother!! What a narrative!! Your talent is God gifted!
You must be proud of yourself!
I doubt even a single Ozzie would have taught about this level of administration and remembrance to the raw powered cricketer!
