Magneto Posted March 19, 2012 Posted March 19, 2012 Can we add Ajmal as collateral damage? But I like idone. :nervous: I don't care if he chucks, because my all-time favourite bowler was a javelin thrower. :giggle:
Magneto Posted March 19, 2012 Posted March 19, 2012 Maybe Swann meant that he wanted to kill that Sri Lankan cricketer who had cheated on him :omg: Was he the one who turned the ugly duckling into a swan? :hmmm:
mishra Posted March 19, 2012 Posted March 19, 2012 Court sentenced for 4 years for inciting violence(london Riots) on facebook..... If not CPS, I think some "No win No fee" law firm can make some money out of it . :haha:
Karan114 Posted March 19, 2012 Posted March 19, 2012 Although Sri Lankan cricketers are cheating whiners starting from whiner in chief Sanga, Swann should stfu after the **** England have pulled over the years

Crookbond Posted March 19, 2012 Posted March 19, 2012 I think this view should be attributed to Swann ONLY. Would be interesting to know if Swann has cheated - I don't recall any such instance.
NareshK Posted March 19, 2012 Posted March 19, 2012 Strong words from Swann and totally brainless and irresponsible. ICC should consider a ban on this guy. I'm sure there would've been outrage if this came from an Indian player.
NareshK Posted March 19, 2012 Posted March 19, 2012 Its just a figure of speech. :dontknow: An international cricketer should know better than to use words like that.
ganeshran Posted March 19, 2012 Posted March 19, 2012 An international cricketer should know better than to use words like that. Do you have a problem with him calling the Lankan batsman a cheat or saying that he will kill him. If its the latter, its just a figure of speech used to express anger, not to be taken literally. Though calling Perera a cheat is not on. A batsman has every right to confirm with the umpire whether a catch was taken cleanly or not.

I dont understand why they are making such a big deal of something that happened in a practice game.

I think he reserves the right to think what's important to him. He was asked about it at the press conference and he dished out his opinion. I don't see anything wrong in that.

I don't see anything wrong in that. Its actually quite a common occurrence in modern day cricket and it didnt warrant such a reaction. Its not as if English batsmen walk immediately after getting out or most modern day batsmen would have either.

Square Drive Posted March 19, 2012 Posted March 19, 2012 Poms are whinging - Dilruwan Poms are whinging - Dilruwan Responding to England criticism that he cheated during the three day warm up game between SLC PresidentŽÃƒŽÃ” XI and England, all-rounder Dilruwan Perera said that England are grumbling over nothing. England captain Andrew Strauss claimed a catch off Perera during the third dayŽÃƒŽÃ” play of the warm up game and the batsman refused to walk after the umpires said they were not sure of the catch. There was a heated argument between the fielders and batsman and then things turned bitter yesterday when spinner Graeme Swann accused Perera of cheating. "I wasnŽÃƒŽÃ• sure of the catch and the umpires werenŽÃƒŽÃ• sure of the catch as well. So I stood my ground. I canŽÃƒŽÃ• understand why they are making an issue out of it," Perera told The Island yesterday. "In the second innings, I was given caught behind when the ball had hit my pads. Then when I was bowling, a caught behind off Ravi Bopara was not given. These things happen in cricket and I feel England are barking up the wrong tree," Dilruwan added. Source Nice lil build up.. :giggle:
jairamesh Posted March 19, 2012 Posted March 19, 2012 By the end of this series we are going to have new No.1. Congrats to the boks.
Yoda-esque Posted March 19, 2012 Posted March 19, 2012 As long as we get full days play, England 2-0 If it rains England 1-0 It is SA I worry about. I think if we played Pakistan now and omitted morgan and replaced him with Patel we would see a different result. One of Englands big problems these days is being too loyal. Morgan should have gone after first test, it was obvious he was struggling, but then so was Bell. I am still backing Bell to come good. Also I am in Florida on holiday for the second test, so if we lose the reason I am not posting is because I am in Florida, Got it everyone :hysterical::hysterical:
