****ing hell, you’re much older than I thought……

 

Did they have sandpaper in the pockets back then too?

 

No, the English where still using it to win games and wouldn’t share tactics.

 

they were still bowling underarm

 

And crying afterwards on the tele

 

True, the men of old wouldn't cry like a soft pair of twats.
Teams have been tampering with the ball since day dot, England, India, Pakistans, Aussies, Kiwis, they all do it.
Our guys were stupid enough to own up, which no one normally does.
If you deny, its not confirmed.
The innuendo eventually dies down and they move on.
The soft cricketers of today are exactly that.
Bradman, Jardine, Marsh & Greig would be turning in their graves.
Stop preaching about global warming, harden up and play mens cricket, not croquet with a skirt in tow..

 

I’d say the twenty television cameras that caught them cheating had more to do with it than your guys “owning up”

 

Nah, just the camera angle giving us a false projection .......... next!

 

Woeful way to finish the series by England.

 

Meanwhile, here in Oz, Smith & Head smash a ton each...........

 

Went to bed at lunch when England were 54/2 , thinking that they would have parity by close of play...... how wrong can you be? Awful batting performance.....

 

$61 for the draw

 

I put $5 on the draw and it's dropped to $41 since

 

76/2 off 15 overs.....England up with the Run Rate..... another 100 overs or so and it's in the bag......

 

Feeble end to a good test series win

 

They could at least have tried for the draw

 

Wet weather has drawn the test at the Gabba.

 

Just for old times sake ..............The SCG, Sydney.......marvelous that.
