Australian skipper Ricky Ponting lost his cool when questioned about a catch he claimed during the final day of the ill-tempered second Test against India in Sydney on Sunday.
Ponting, fielding at silly point, turned back and dived for a looping catch offered by Mahendra Singh Dhoni but grounded the ball in his effort.
However, he didn't bat an eyelid before making an appeal, which was turned down.
When asked during the post-match press-conference about whether he caught the ball cleanly, an incensed Ponting took offence to the question.
"I claimed the catch and there was no way I grounded it (the ball)."
"If you are questioning my integrity, then probably you shouldn't be sitting here," retorted a furious Australian captain.
He, however, admitted the umpiring blunders marred the Test but hoped the match would be remembered for all the right reasons.
"We now go to Perth on a wicket and conditions that probably should suit us a lot more than it should suit the Indians," warned Ponting.
