India drop case against Hogg

The meeting, chaired by the International Cricket Council's chief match referee Ranjan Madugalle, was arranged in a bid to calm the growing hostility between the sides, which erupted in the second Test in Sydney.
One of the flash points saw Hogg charged by the ICC for using an offensive remark towards Kumble and India vice-captain Mahendra Singh Dhoni, but Kumble said in a statement on Monday: "Cricket is larger than any individual, so it is important that we forget about what happened in Sydney. It is now time to move on."
ICC communications officer James Fitzgerald added: "As it was the India team manager Chetan Chauhan who laid the charge against Brad Hogg, he is entitled to withdraw the charge prior to the case being heard.
"The result is that the case is dismissed and the matter is now closed."
