Australian spinner Brad Hogg [Images] is unlikely to contest the Indian charge of a foul slur against Anil Kumble [Images] and Mahendra Singh Dhoni [Images] when the hearing comes up in Perth on Monday.

Hogg apparently had abused Kumble as well as Dhoni after the two were batting to draw the Test on the final afternoon of the controversial Sydney Test.

"I can't wait to run through you 'B******ds'," Hogg is alleged to have uttered at the Indians who have taken an exception to the remark since it has connotations of being born out of a wedlock.

Hogg on his part is likely to suggest that the word is used as mate-ship in the Australian culture and he did not mean to offend the Indians.

The bowler has been charged with a serious level III offence of racial abuse.

The section 3.3 of the ICC [Images] Code of conduct refers to players or team officials "using language or gestures that offends, insults, humiliates, intimidates, threatens, disparages or vilifies another person on the basis of that person's race, religion, gender, colour, descent, or national or ethic origin".

The case is being seen by one of Cricket Australia's legal and business affairs general manager Dean Kino.

CA's anti-racism officer Peter Young doesn't see anything amiss in the Indian charge.

"India is entitled to lay a charge against Hogg, as Ricky Ponting [Images] did against Harbhajan. Our view is that it's the appropriate process. And the same process should be invoked if India has a concern," he said.
