Australian Cricketers Under Fire For Acting Like Australian Cricketers
IN 2001, SHANE WARNE was clubbed over the rope for six runs by a little-known Zimbabwean batsman by the name of Stuart Carlisle, during a friendly one day international between our two nations.
It wouldve been like any other match, but Warne immortalised Carlisle the only way he could.
Watching the ball sail over the boundary, the legspinner bent over and spoke directly into the stump microphone broadcasting his immortal sledge into the lounge rooms of sports fans around the world.
You f**king arsey merkin, said Warne, loud and clear.
Since then, people are still being shocked by the way Australian cricketers conduct themselves while out in the middle.
The incumbent national side is drawing fire currently for asking who the third f**king umpire was during the Second Test with New Zealand today.
I dont know why theyre blowing up about it, said Warne.
Anybody whos played against Australia will tell you that we dont mind dropping a few f**ks, merkins or whatevers out on the oval its not like its high tea at Nans place now is it?
This time, its the unsurprisingly sheepish Kiwi team whove been offended by the Australians, as they have been so many times in the past.
The home commentary team took exceptional offence to bowler Josh Hazelwood and captain Steve Smith accosting the umpire out on the pitch, after they deferred a call to the third umpire.
Both Smith and Hazelwood were sure that in-form Kiwi dangerman Kane Williamson was out LBW, but hotspot proved otherwise but the Aussie werent having a bar of it.
Its not against the f**king rules for me to ask who the f**king third umpire is, said Hazelwood.
Thats all I f**king asked now Ive got every merkin breathing down my neck, telling me to pull my f**king head in and to stop acting like a silly merkin. Jesus.
Play continues with the home side leading the tourists by 176 runs in the second innings.
