@no-quarter Steady on. You're a poopy head would undermine anyone's confidence and concentration.

@barbarian great post, and one i 100% agree with.
I loved game related chat when i played, on both sides. I remember one day i was batting like a fluffybunny (okay that was most days) and after my 10th play and miss 1st slip yelled "if you could fucking bat you would have nicked that". He was probably right on both counts. Next ball was a bit straighter and i attempted an extravagant on drive, got the length a bit wrong and lofted it. Somehow it was still out of the middle, and went one-bounce 4. I immediately turned to said slip and said "if i could fucking bat thay would have gone for 6".
I admire anyone who can come up with that sort of response so quickly.
I usually think of the perfect response about 8 hours later when trying to get to sleep but stewing on what I should have said ...

It's funny because i always saw nasty abusive sledging from the opposition as a sure sign they were losing the plot and that we were well on top.
Similarly I have played with a couple of guys who would get a bit abusive, particularly when they were bowling. Used to piss me off because they were gun bowlers when they had their mind on the job but got dragged down into a shit fight when things got nasty.

Shit about to hit the fan
Rabada's ban overturned, cleared to play in Cape Town
Kagiso Rabada will play in the Cape Town Test after his two-match ban for making physical contact with Steven Smith was overturned by the ICC's code of conduct appeal commissioner Michael Heron

Wow. Shit is gonna kick off now. Does this set a new precedent for contact in cricket? Bring on the mma shit yo. If you can choke out the bowler before a review decision you can't be out !! Sweet

Just a ruling that it is acceptable to punch Warner would suffice.

Watch the first bit where Smith throws Bancroft under the bus
Smith and Boof should be sacked. 'The boys in the shed are embarrassed'. So much remorse (after being caught).
In his rambling, though, he did confess to bringing the game into disrepute.
.....and it is all so fucking hilarious!
-
Seriously though, if the ICC don't have the balls to charge Smith and Lehman it will be a piss weak effort on their behalf. Bancroft also deserves further charges.
Smith has admitted to being complicit to an attempt to cheat. It was a planned act.
Lehman sent a message out for Bancroft to hide his cheating as the cameras had caught him.
Bancroft then deliberately lied to the umpires, showing them a sunglasses case.
Saying 'we are very sorry' doesn't cut the mustard.
Will be interesting to hear the CA line as well.

So Bancroft to be the scapegoat?
Desperation drove Australia to cheat - Smith
Australia's captain said it was the decision of the team's 'leadership group' to try and rough up the ball in an effort to get it to reverse, and that the coaches had nothing to do with it
-
Wtf! Admission of preplanned, and leadership group endorsed, ball tampering!! Then you throw your youngest player under the bus??!! Fuck me, these guys have a long way back to any claims of playing anywhere near the spirit of the game.
@Crucial that 'explain' opening to the vid was brutally cold. -
Come on. It's just good hard aggressive cricket. They know where the line is and they don't cross it.
Oh hang on. That's their excuse for personal abuse of the opposition. What's their excuse for blatant cheating again? "We're not good enough to win an important game ...?"
