Also heard the question of who knew what asked of any of the bowlers that came into contact with a ball with sandpaper marks on it.
Surely they all knew?

Outside of Australia, iām sure all cricket fans are secretly loving this
David Warner should be force fed his silly fucking moustache, boiled alive and his head mounted on a stump to warn others. Surely?
āIt is not clear why, if this was really the first time the team had cheated in this way, the South African cameramen say they were tipped off to keep an eye out,ā
I hadnāt heard that before.
Good rant by Lehmanās predecessor about the Aussie Team culture
They remind me of Leeds United in the 70ās, plenty of talent but resorting to dirty tactics with a win at any cost mentality. Perhaps this will also see an end to sledging? Surely no place for it in what is supposed to be a gentlemanās game?
Except that people Iāve heard talking about this on the radio regard it as another potential nail in the coffin of test cricket.
Speaking as someone who couldnāt give a stuff about cricket, it doesnāt really bother me.
Smith breaks down in press conference and cries like a little girl. What a ponce. FFS the over reaction from all parties to this is astounding. They roughed up a ball and got caught, thatās it. Punishment dished out and thatās the end of the matter. No need for any lynchings, no need for any gobshite social media bollocks and no need to cry like a pussy in front of the cameras and talk about stains on national identities. Itās a fucking cricket ball, not a national disaster, FFS.
And off we go again. After our riproaring performance in Jockland (Think we were actually fooled by the fact the Sun shone)
ODI vs The Sandpaperers starts today.
Will this be a much needed respite from learning which England players fancy whom in Love Island? Or another reason to scratch our balls in bemusement?
Hmm one bowler short of a full load?
Shows how well Stokes balances the ODI team if one of our bowlers gets the treatment

16.1 W Ali to Paine, OUT , oh dear, what was that from Paine?! Makes a pre-meditated move outside off, brings out the reverse-sweepā¦ and lobs a gentle top edge to short third man! He completely telegraphed his intentions, Buttler was almost far enough across to intercept the ball himself, but to compound that the execution was poor, hitting against the offspin, and heās gifted Moeen a third!
