Aus Commonwealth Games Association chief executive Perry Crosswhite feels the issue of unprepared venues in Delhi is blown out of proportion

Australian Commonwealth Games Association chief executive Perry Crosswhite has called for "balance" in reporting of the New Delhi Games.

Releasing pictures of six venues -- the Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium, to be used for the opening ceremony and athletics, and the Shyama Prasad Mukherjee swim complex, nearing completion, as also arenas for gymnastics, hockey, netball and track cycling, Crosswhite said: "Suggestions our athletes are going there to compete in rubble, it's nonsense.

"Yes construction is behind. We know that. But it's time for some balance in the reporting of this issue -- time our body was given a fair go -- because right now, there are also several venues ready for competition."
