[Twizzle]

well this is just f**king great

 

[hineyrulz]

At least they are a good bunch of blokes.

 

[Timbo]

Lol. That Azhar run out has somehow caused controversy on FB. Pakis, Indian and the odd pom on a cricket group I sort of follow are saying it's against the spirit of the game. A few on ESPN too.

What the f**k? Any chance to perpetuate the ugly Aussie (mostly) myth I guess...

Yeah I saw that.

Basically any time we do anything that isn’t straight up and down regulation cricket it’s ‘against the spirit of the game’ now, from the fans of countries that brought you spot fixing and Gary f**king Pratt.

 

[Twizzle]

So run outs are against the spirit of the game ? lol

 

[Front-Rower]

Not our fault they weren’t t paying attention re the run out. If in doubt stay in your crease, it’s u/10’s stuff.

 

[mozza91]

Marsh lol. In his defence that
he was a great f**king nut. He’d of found a way to get out though.

We are merkins and should play that way. This new bullshit of "we won't sledge anymore" is pissweak

Any exuse to bash the Aussies, we have been so polite this series its almost sickening.

Some people will use any excuse to have a crack at the Australian Cricket side, It’s not Australia’s fault that Azhar Ali has the situational awareness of a turnip.

Even Azhar admitted he and his partner had buggered it up in a huge way.

 

[AlwaysGreen]

That was under 10s stuff.

Good old anti-social media. It's competion to see who can be outraged the most over nothing.

[Tommy Smith]

Lol at any controversy over the Azhar Ali dismissal.

Totally fair. Play to the whistle lads.

I'd want the England captain sacked if he didn't whip the bails off in that instance.

Any serious cricket fan wouldn't think for a moment that that dismissal wasn't fair game.

But yes, 100% spot on that it's a classic case of finding any old reason to smear the Aussie cricket team.

Ian Harvey's slower ball would have this Pakistan team dethroned

Only way out is through. No way we're going block it out for two days. Might as well try to win and see how close we get playing normally.
