Haddin says disappointed with Vettori’s lack of decency

Brad HaddinMelbourne, Feb. 3 : Australian wicketkeeper Brad Haddin has said he is disappointed with Black Caps captain Daniel Vettori for insinuating that he cheated by deliberately claiming a false dismissal during Sunday''s one-day match in Perth.

Vettori said after the game that Haddin knew the wicket of Neil Broom was not legitimate, after the batsman was ruled to have been bowled by Michael Clarke in the 36th over despite replays showing Haddin''s gloves were in front of the stumps - an automatic no-ball.

New Zealand players were furious as they watched the replays while Broom trudged off.
