Australia the Millwall of cricket.4

If a couple of Pakistan cricketers were caught cheating like this they would be given lengthy bans.
I hope that the Australian pair are both banned for 12 months.3 -
How long do you think they have been doing it for?1

I suppose one of the lessons to be learnt is that if you want to use something to tamper the ball with and want to disguise it with something else in your pocket, at least make sure its the same colour!3

After all the bleating over Rabada, this is hilarious!3
-
I hope Smith and whoever was involved, hopefully Warner and all their bowlers are banned until after the next Ashes series

Clearly the Aussies were cheating as well during the Ashes, as otherwise the English batmen would have scored far more runs...as shown by how well they are now batting in New Zealand13

They were - footage of Bancroft putting sugar in his pocket at tea was taken.killerandflash said:Clearly the Aussies were cheating as well during the Ashes, as otherwise the English batmen would have scored far more runs...as shown by how well they are now batting in New Zealand

cheating bastards. From painting the crease line bigger in the Ashes to this latest "indiscretion" . Smith should be stripped of the captaincy & then he & Bancroft banned for 5 games. Leaman should also be sacked by Cricket Australia.0

Australian cricketers aren't the brightest or well mannered are they, shame they can't be banned for good few games.2

Just seen the footage.
Surely there has got to be a long ban.
To do it is bad, but to also say you all discussed it and decided to give it a go and then go ahead and do it is unforgivable. Let alone the attempt to hide the yellow tape when you thought had been spotted and try to deceive the umpire with a ‘what do you mean, just a black cloth in here sir’ routine is shocking.
As someone said. If this had been Pakistan...1 -
Yes, the camera man whose previous duty was to seek out the lovely ladies, has now had to be redeployed, since the demise of the walk on girls at the darts.Riviera said:
Probably first time. There are so many cameras at Test matches these days. I'm pretty sure the TV companies employ one guy to spy on players rather than film the action.CHG said:How long do you think they have been doing it for?

Our Test coverage has started with the ball tampering and they've just asked Athers about it..............4

The suggestion is that the Aussies will use this to dump Smith because their team, in general, is out of control.0

Root and Bayliss have been massively lucky. First of all the weather has completely knocked the stuffing out of the Test, and then the Aussies have ensured that our match is completely overshadowed...Chizz said:0 -

Well at least he brought up his own indiscretion, and at least he was man enough to do it himself rather that passing it on to the junior member of the team. Mind you although he was charged he never admitted he was cheating, just trying to keep his hands dry...Addick Addict said:Our Test coverage has started with the ball tampering and they've just asked Athers about it..............

Has anybody considered the possibility that Bancroft may have been acting alone and Smith has done the decent thing as captain and taken the rap for his young, inexperienced charge?0

Early Twitter highlights on Sandgate:
Simon Katich - Smith, Warner and Lehman should all be sacked
Michael Clarke - I will consider coming back as captain if asked by the right people
Aussie in meltdown! Love it!1 -
Lol if Michael Clarke comes back in as captain that would be some sort of WWE style twist.2

I am not saying anything! Just putting over a different point of view.Chizz said:
So you're saying he's not a cheat, he's just a liar?Riviera said:Has anybody considered the possibility that Bancroft may have been acting alone and Smith has done the decent thing as captain and taken the rap for his young, inexperienced charge?

Nobody has because its highly unlikely. The reason why an experienced played did it was that he was coerced by his captain, not the other way round.Riviera said:Has anybody considered the possibility that Bancroft may have been acting alone and Smith has done the decent thing as captain and taken the rap for his young, inexperienced charge?
