Well farkme Kiwi. Been doin' a lotta research there. And a bit of cut and paste.
Probably couldn't be bothered to read it though, eh? Just like me then. When you've lived through it, it gets humdrum and only a worth a look in when you've obviously still got an axe to grind.
The underarm incident was quite unsavory and I hated that Greg gave little bro. Trev. the rough end of the pineapple by ordering him to bowl underarm, even though a highly unlikely six would have only resulted in a replay. I reckon 99% of Aussies were with NZ on that call.
Let it go mate. Move on and please take back Rusty. There's something to Crowe on about.
(Bugger Carey out, please check front foot ump.) :emoticon-0101-sadsm :emoticon-0100-smile

Oh and one thing Kiwi. Sandpapergate, yes, but checking the rules on the occasion of the underarm ball incident, NOT cheating, within the laws of the game, but changed real quick after that ****ty decision by G Chappell.
So, ... should be far from under the title,
A short history of Aussie cheating
...The most famous cases
1.Greg Chappell ordered his younger brother Trevor ...etc.

Commentators pondering who England can inject into side for next game.
Adil Rashid was mentioned. I have read that some of you want Woakes to play.
As I'm not remotely invested in cricket, let alone English cricket, apart from engaging in friendly banter with fellow Rs, I'm wondering if you guys agree with the commentators. ??
 
Hard to see Moeen doing much more bowling in this game, so England really struggling now. Need to bat big second time round.
 
Skies look dark in Birmingham. Anyone know if rain imminent?
If so, this could turn into a quasi-T20/one dayer, if England truly want to play Bazzball.
Should be fun.

Rain expected all day on Tuesday. This game needs to be done by stumps Monday if correct.
Should get interesting if England go for win. Bazzball from the start of their second dig.

Brilliant first session from England. 20 miles away or so from Edgbaston and the air is very heavy, expecting showers and thunder later.

Once again Cummins sets a field which lets England score over 4 an over in singles.

The sides are closely matched apart from when it comes to captaincy. Stokes is brilliant and Cummins is ordinary.
