You donât reckon there are a few people in Sri Lanka who will be looking into his history.
Donât really careâŚMurali threw at least two types of delivery and i doubt the intelligence of anyone who denies it.
I think he did too. I dont think Hair got it right though. I also think Brett Lee chucked
Agree on Lee with his bouncer.
I think Hair was right that day at the MCG and the biggest indictment was on the other umpire. He agreed he was throwing but didnât have the guts.
[quote=âsmooth, post:1781, topic:9769, full:trueâ]I can find a spot for him in that top 6 ahead of any of Maddinson, Henriques, Patterson or Dan Hughes.

And all of them except Hughes (currently 32*) failed in the Bluesâ first dig against the SACAs.
SA skittled for 92 but it was Copeland who was the destroyer, not Starc or Cummins.
Was a tough one at AO yesterday. The openers did a good job but we collapsed after that. Weather played havoc with the pink ball. Wasnât doing a lot early on but then a change came in and it become quite overcast and humid, next thing the ball is hooping sideways and unplayable. Apart from Warner the NSW batters struggled aswell. Unfortunately he nicked one up earlier and was given not out
First couple of days favoured ball over bat in most of the matches.
Two gay guys have claimed that Ben Stokes was defending them from homophobic slurs.
The response seems a little over the top for a bit of mouthing off. If he was defending them from homophobic violence, yeahâŚmaybe.
Theyâl Find some way to get him back in the squad.
Yeah, VIC v QLD match looks to be owned by the bowlers with the one exception, Khawaja, who is making some timely runs. Heâd be the n my Ashes team on the Oz decks.
Took them a month to come forward? Wonder if theyâve been pushed to say something
Youâd reckon. Itâd be fair counterpoint to the old law, or understanding, that if a bloke killed another bloke whoâs tried to pin atail on him, then itâs justifiable homicide.
They did go at him with a bottle fwiw
The first part is him defending himself, the last part is just assault.
Props to the guy who he defended for coming forward to defend him, I still donât think he will be part of the ashes- whether he is part of the team or not it wonât have a bearing on the final series result anyway
The homophobic taunts were first reported in the English press around 3 days after the event.
Starc 8-73 in the second dig against SA.
Some pretty scary stuff in there including a corker to Head first aggotâŚ
Smith 3 & 9, Maddinson 5 & 0 fail in both innings
The keeper situation wasnât resolved this round. Wade apparently told he has the 3 SS games to make runs or he is gone. Made 1 first dig.
Nevill batted ok in difficult conditions for 20 and kept extremely well, wonât get a second hit. Carey who is next off the rank failed in both innings
Wade scores 6 in his second knock. Tasmania getting pulverised by the WACAs.
Tassie 7/29. â â â â â â â hell.
Surely we have another keeper somewhere that can score over 20 that isnât Wade or Nevill?
Nevill batted really well but yes he doesnât make enough runs at test level. He still is the best we have though
