2 years ban from ALL cricket for clicking fingers
What did the Aussies get for sandpaper misuse????
General Cricket Thread
Just checked, the Aussies got banned from "all international and domestic cricket for 12 months" - so presumably still free to play in the IPL, a money earning opportunity not afforded to Clicky.
Imagine being banned for twice as long for being better at cheating than the Aussies.

Lets be honest, we all knew this anyway.
Pretty inconceivable that no one apart from Bancroft, Warner and Smith knew and it was the first time they ever tried it.
Warner knew he'd been clocked with the tape on his hands so got Bancroft to do it instead.
Normally I would say fair play to Khawaja for spilling the beans but he's only done it to sell a few books so he can f*** off as well.

Stating the obvious really - no chance that knowledge of this use was limited to 3 players or that it was only done in this test. Think Pat Cummins might ne on the blower though unless his recent comments were made to save the headlines for the official launch...

Snitches get stitches said an Aussie pal of mine (with tongue in cheek) I was assuming we’d have to wait for Cameron Bancroft’s autobiography He was properly tucked up - the others kept their international careers

Brydon Carse given path to England return, Shoaib Bashir dropped and Liam Patterson-White called up
England open the door for Brydon Carse to return to Test cricket for the tour of South Africa by naming him in the Lions squad.

Bashir dropped for the upcoming series in RSA and Carse back in the squad.
I never really understood what Bashir was picked for in the first palce.

You said Carse is "back in the squad" - he's in the same squad as Bashir

Carse shouldn't be anywhere near any England squad.
He is utter tripe and with a big mouth to boot.

Reminds me in that regard to Jade Dernbach. All talk and then goes for 8 an over.

in fairness him and Uzi are childhood mates all they way through from juniors - he's sticking up for him mate whilst also defending himself. it does make me wonder why he didn't speak out at the time though...???
It’s brilliant. Hard to keep up. I’d suggest the following;
They are all lying duplicitous c***s who when it came to it hung their ‘leaders’ out to dry and stayed quiet to protect themselves individually despite preaching ‘team is all’ to everyone else and banging on about the 'spirit of cricket' and how 'bad the poms are'. The thing is, it sounds like everyone was 'at it'. They got caught and flat out denied it. That’s where they went wrong. they double down on the 'we didn't know' line
They thought they were immune to any consequences
It's tearing them apart, I LOVE it. Inject it directly into my veins!!
There’s a big Man City style asterisk against this team now.
I’m going to enjoy bringing that up with them at several points over the next few months.
As my [English] mate aptly put it:
Cummins has been shown up for the absolute c*** that he comes across as being. Starc’s legacy as an all time great is forever tarnished and they’re eating each other alive.
