f**k me they’re precious.

Other countries don’t make their commentators sign contracts saying they’ll be cheerleaders. f**king deal with it.

Yeah, the threshold for 'racism' is pretty low these days. Just seems like a pretty decent sledge tbh (the canteen staff one).

the names? Pretty harmless stuff

Warner mightn’t have any hundreds but he got five 50’s last time we were over there and averaged around 50.

Hundreds or not he’s substantially better than any of our other options.

Yeah, I didn't think there was too much wrong with that?? Maybe I'm insensitive. Was there something supposedly said along the lines of 'Aussies don't wear blue to the cricket'? That was possibly close to the bone

The Kiwi's are not alone in their dislike for narcissistic flat track bullies, the prick should be earning his spot again through weight of runs, not walking straight back in like nothings happened.
Except as steve waugh and border have said, it was a massive overreaction. They should have already been playing.

There's no doubting his ability with the bat

I definitely agree that the punishments handed down to Warner, Smith and Bancroft were massive over reactions

So another bloke who makes starts and doesn't go on with it, and who is a cancer in the sheds, is our saviour?

The bloke averages mid 30s in England. Zero hundreds, which our lineup desperately needs. Let's not overstate his record, he will not save us in the Ashes and he is not worth the trouble

I had a few words with Indian trolls on FB, all their standard responses are "Aussies all cheat" or "all Aussies are racist" so I have no idea why it was deemed a racist taunt when all the Indian players will have genuine sporting visas.

Apparently we offered a formal apology for it but not exactly sure why

Well some have been doubting his batting ability. I was just pointing out that he had a decent series over there last time, which he did.

Maybe he’s not worth the trouble he brings but I want to win and we are without a doubt more chance of winning a Test Match with Warner opening than we are with any other opening bat in the country.

LOL these losers still trying to find an all-rounder just because Flintoff carved us up in that 2005 Ashes series,LOL even Roger Federer ,Lionel Messi and Usain Bolt lose on occasions so of course that Aussie team was bound to lose the odd series here and there.

The same Kohli with two hundreds and a top score of 149 in his 10 matches in England?

Two is substantially more than zero
Before his last tour he couldnt score a hundred in England.

This current mob cant score a hundred anywhere.

In fact they're flat out getting to 30.
