Port Said Red Posted July 2, 2023 Report Share Posted July 2, 2023 A statement has come through from the Australia team: "Australian management has requested the Marylebone Cricket Club (MCC) investigate several incidents involving spectators in the members area during lunch on day five of the Lord's Test. It is alleged players and staff from the Australian team were verbally abused, with some being physically contacted, as they made their way to lunch through the members area." 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If sky are going with a female commentators then Charlotte Edwards should be the choice. Maxwell, absolute ***. First time Smith played here after sandpaper gate he said it was “poor” he was being booed. **** off. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tin Posted July 2, 2023 Report Share Posted July 2, 2023 2 hours ago, GrahamC said: And we can start by getting rid of commentary that seems to be about 50% Aussie. Don’t give a **** what Ponting, Taylor or that odious *** McGrath has to say. When we go down there do they reciprocate? Do they ****, biased *****. Spot on, Graham. I’m sick of Ponting’s propaganda. Hated him as a player, hate him as a commentator. Jumped up little shit. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RoystonFoote'snephew Posted July 2, 2023 Report Share Posted July 2, 2023 (edited) Stokes out. Dubious we can win it now. If we don't I hope we don't fall short by about 10 runs for the singles we refused to take.

Midred Posted July 2, 2023 Report Share Posted July 2, 2023 Perhaps we should be more proactive with our reviews. I'm always amazed that Australian appeals last beyond the first couple of hours! Are there still a maximum no.? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
