If the wicket microphone had not have picked it up, I doubt all this nonsense would have surfaced at all, it has always gone on, some of them are quite funny as well.

Anyway..
When is the next game. I have a funny feeling the poms have lured us into a false sence of security. And will come out and wipe the ground with us..

Sledging has and is a part of cricket so hopefully hosting TV stations keep it on the cricket oval not TV.

There is a lot of swearing and carry on from teams in a game of cricket and always has been. Lets leave it the way it is instead of turning it into another one of those politically correct games for pussies!
They should use a noise cancelling mic
