King Tendulkar Posted December 18, 2010 Posted December 18, 2010 Send offs, foul mouthed abuse, players being pulled apart etc etc Yet match referee had done nothing! Apparently now its all just great competition!
gloryof83 Posted December 18, 2010 Posted December 18, 2010 Send offs, foul mouthed abuse, players being pulled apart etc etc Yet match referee had done nothing! Apparently now its all just great competition! KT all the players involved are white... so it is just their competative spirit... wearing their hearts on sleaves etc..
Bradman99 Posted December 18, 2010 Posted December 18, 2010 Yes and I'm glad they do. The one series we can have a bit of banter without anybody whining about it.
EnterTheVoid Posted December 18, 2010 Posted December 18, 2010 Yes and I'm glad they do. The one series we can have a bit of banter without anybody whining about it. Yea, they were sledging full on. Loved every bit of it
Sachinism Posted December 18, 2010 Posted December 18, 2010 Yes and I'm glad they do. The one series we can have a bit of banter without anybody whining about it. :haha::haha::haha: I think you need to refresh your memory on who does most of the whining
Bradman99 Posted December 18, 2010 Posted December 18, 2010 :haha::haha::haha: I think you need to refresh your memory on who does most of the whining No I don't.

O so ashes does have different rules! If its the same for every series then alls cool but when non ashes match referees all over it.
Serani Posted December 18, 2010 Posted December 18, 2010 Yeh but everyone knows the Indians cant sledge so just leave it to the pros. Even England arent exactly great
Guest Gunner Posted December 18, 2010 Posted December 18, 2010 Yeh but everyone knows the Indians cant sledge so just leave it to the pros. Even England arent exactly great Yeh, KP came across more homo than a sledger when he asked MJ for his phone number.
King Tendulkar Posted December 18, 2010 Author Posted December 18, 2010 Yeh but everyone knows the Indians cant sledge so just leave it to the pros. Even England arent exactly great Yeah and jelly beans and telling batsman that I drive a porshce are really good sledges
The Realist Posted December 18, 2010 Posted December 18, 2010 It's hardly sledging of the highest order going by the reporting, which is appropriate as it matches the quality of the cricket being played. On the first day of the five-day encounter, Anderson began by taunting Johnson about being dropped from the previous test. Johnson responded by saying that he had been busy modelling – a clear dig at Anderson for appearing on the front cover of gay men’s magazine Attitude. Anderson is understood to have hit back with a derogatory reference to Johnson’s huge tattoos – a dragon smothering his right arm, and a large lion-like cat covering much of his torso.
ravishingravi Posted December 18, 2010 Posted December 18, 2010 It is tough cricket. It is different, it is competitive

I'm surprised Johnson was smart enough to think of that!

King Tendulkar Posted December 19, 2010 Author Posted December 19, 2010 It is tough cricket. It is different' date=' it is competitive[/quote'] They will all have a beer together in the dressing room after last match, so its all ok.
Bradman99 Posted December 19, 2010 Posted December 19, 2010 They will all have a beer together in the dressing room after last match' date=' so its all ok.[/quote'] Something wrong with that?
King Tendulkar Posted December 19, 2010 Author Posted December 19, 2010 Something wrong with that? Nothing but that doesnt mean you can act like jack asses on the pitch and not hve match referee take action just cos you claim that on last day you will have beers together. Its used as an excuse by aussies and england to allow their boorish behaviour in matches, to escape punishment. But when other teams do swearing, verbals, send offs straight in to match referee rooms. Different rules for ashes then?
King Tendulkar Posted December 19, 2010 Author Posted December 19, 2010 It is tough cricket. It is different' date=' it is competitive[/quote'] Another excuse used, this and beers on last day! Different rules for ashes it seems. If these are the rules then should apply to other series as well then but they dont
