We also ask that players refrain from sandpapering the ball and deliberately bowling wides.Chizz said:Cricket owes much of its appeal and enjoyment to the fact that it should be played not only according to the Laws, but also within the Spirit of Cricket. The major responsibility for ensuring fair play rests with the captains, but extends to all players, match officials and, especially in junior cricket, teachers, coaches and parents.
Respect is central to the Spirit of Cricket.
Respect your captain, team-mates, opponents and the authority of the umpires.
Play hard and play fair.
Accept the umpire’s decision.
Create a positive atmosphere by your own conduct, and encourage others to do likewise.
Show self-discipline, even when things go against you.
Congratulate the opposition on their successes, and enjoy those of your own team.
Thank the officials and your opposition at the end of the match, whatever the result.
Cricket is an exciting game that encourages leadership, friendship and teamwork, which brings together people from different nationalities, cultures and religions, especially when played within the Spirit of Cricket.

In the final if Williamson is incorrectly given out I'm sure Jason Roy will run to the umpire to reverse the decisionChizz said:
Nope. When did you last see an Australian or English captain withdraw an appeal after a player has been given out? Say, in the last 100 years.blackpool72 said:Roy could clearly be seen saying to Finch what are you doing.
Finch could have retracted his appeal as he new Roy didn't touch the ball.
Finch is as guilty as anyone if you ask me.5 -
You are meant to walk when you are given out. Not dispute the decision or swear at the opposition for appealing. It is this action that causes issues. Because on a Saturday, if a batsman disputes a decision, he is then told by one of the opposition fielders to "just fxxx off, you've been given out". And then the umpire doesn't just have to umpire but try to stop all hell breaking lose.KBslittlesis said:
But in this instance, he just questioned his decision before he walked.Addick Addict said:
The difference is that this sort of behaviour in disputing decisions is expected with football. It isn't with cricket but has crept into the game over the last 30 years or so to the extent that grass roots cricket cannot get people who are prepared to officiate.KBslittlesis said:

Crikey it wasn’t that bad ffs.Addick Addict said:
And that behaviour is replicated every Saturday afternoon - which is why so many teams turn up without an umpireblackpool72 said:
Cheated out of a century in a world cup semi-final.Addick Addict said:I'm sorry - as much as Roy didn't hit it, his behaviour subsequently was awful
I fully support him
Really? This isn't football
He was, quite rightly, angry & he had his say before he walked.
Can’t see what’s so bad about that.
He’ll get fined & feck all will be said about the umpire.
Why would that put off people officiating at grass roots?

Just watch the umpire. He can clearly been seen hesitating in raising his finger. To me it’s clear he was unsure about the decision, but because the Aussies were so loud, it influenced him.9

Anyway ....................................
197-2 29 overs
England require 27 from 21 overs.0 -
Bairstow should not be allowed to appeal again.
He appeals for everything when batting or keeping no matter how stupid the appeal is.
If I was captain I would just tell him to bat and keep wicket but leave the appeals to others.3 -
This isn't the dog and duck 2nd 11, against the Samaritans. I would hope that England would appeal against the Aussies in a similar situation..
Semi final of a cricket WC. Two reviews seem right to me for 50 over and test cricket. Bairstow and Roy didn't think that through but JB was great so let's not castigate the Yorkshire pudding too much.0 -
i think Roy may also have been questioning the delivery as a no ball ...1

By all means appeal if you need 20 runs and are 8 men down. No need whatsoever to use your last appeal when you are 124/0 in the 18th over.

Doesn't make sense.0 -
Can just visualize the sports pages in the Aussie press tomorrow!

Will Morgan let Root have the 50 hmmm0

This has to go down as one of our best ever ODI performances.
Won't get many better all round than this. Pretty much perfect aside from Bairstow's review.2 -
222 for 2, 2 to win.
RIP, Richie Benaud5 -
Eng win with 107 balls spare.0

Absolutely thrashed the Aussies.3

We know he's in trouble.Chizz said:
Right now (this isn't a joke) the cricket section of the Melbourne Age is leading with: Mark Taylor and Ian Healy have suggested Jason Roy could be in trouble for dissentaddick05 said:Can just visualize the sports pages in the Aussie press tomorrow!
He'll get a fine & a disciplinary point.1 -

As opposed to the whole f******g Aussie team being in trouble. What a bunch of sore losers. Smashed them out of sight and this is the best they can come up with?

Someone tell Chizz England won,that will piss him off4
-
Absolutely thrilled with that.
Just didn’t want that Australian side winning anything, as that imo sends out a far worse message to kids playing cricket than having a word with the umpire.
Good luck to them in the final.
Brilliant.4 -
Fabulous result, well done England!3
-
What a complete demolition job. 8 wickets, nearly EIGHTEEN overs in hand!1
-
The best part of that performance is the fact that a lot of the senior players stepped up to the mark. Woakes and Archer were a far better opening attack than Berendorf and Starc; Wood thoroughly deserved his wicket; Rashid bowled even better than his figures suggest; Buttler's one key moment was utterly brilliant (to nutmeg the opponents' star player at the same time as running him out); Bairstow and (especially) Roy completely outplayed the Aussies; Root and Morgan completed the demolition with consummate ease. It was *almost* the perfect performance.
One more to go...0 -
Woakes given motm. That’sjust plain politics. Roy all day long. His reaction to being given out has done for him.0
