The Cricket Thread (part 9) - from Dec 2024

India have been acting like ■■■■■ for years, then sook it up big time when anyone gives it back. Australia have been to nice for to long, im glad konstas is getting in their heads, proves how mentally fragile they are

I think this is out. Definite noise.

India have learned from the best. Australia were abusing and intimidating sides for years. Now other teams are just following suit.

This will be tough going for the next hour or so. Ball doing plenty

That was 7 years ago…did you forget sandpaper gate?

some of our top order batters are a fair handicap

I’m backing Smith to make a score, he’s in form.

He did look nervous Marnus. I think he knew he was out, maybe hoping that snicko didn’t show anything like Jaiswal’s last week. Difference being, this was willow not glove.

What was abusive or intimidating about that?
Cheating, yes.
Nice goalpost shift

185 aging well so far.

Yes I’m talking about sledging. Don’t forget the behaviour of the Aussies on that tour before Capetown.

Think this pitch is one that you’ll never quite ‘feel in’ on. Even with a good score, it’s going to ask lots of questions.

I mean that tour was very volatile, with plenty of sledging and verbal abuse from both sides.

What created it was abuse from the crowd and media about Warner’s wife, incessantly. Warner and co crumbled under all that and cheated.
