Clearly the ACB need to consult Stokes, Bairstow, Broad etc for clarification on where this sits in the spirit of cricket

I mean the ball wasn’t in play now was it

Curran with the moral victory after the fourth umpire moved out of the way at the last minute.
 
You don't think the umpire didn't exacerbate the incident by standing in his way ?

Curran had already been warned not to do what he did previously from the other end, so had the umpire not stood guard and then Curran proceeded to do what he did, would that be grounds for him to reported and be punished, you would think so.

Therefore why the need for the umpire to stand guard and big note himself, he didn't need to do so


By the way.

You may want to familiarise yourself with the Colin Croft incident and the lack of any punishment from the powers to be.
That whole tour had several incidents where players should have been suspended.
The umpires sole responsibility at that point was to protect the integrity of the pitch.
Your argument isnt valid no matter how far back in the archieves you want to reach.

I stand corrected. Wasn't aware of that incident. You have my apologies. As others have pointed out, that was a long time ago and things were very different. Possibly one of the reasons why the neutral umpire was brought in ?
 
NZ bundled out for 98 by Bangladesh. Might be worth watching the Bangers bat.

Curran is an idiot. 4 games is about right, it's a serious breach IMO. I wonder what would have happened if he had collided with him? Surely the ICC would get involved.

Bangers chased it 1 down, just over run a ball, one of the more surprising results I can remember
 
That's the worst Test dismissal I've ever seen from Mooney.

Did the girls just not come to play or what?
I think its a reflection of how little long form cricket they play more than anything else. How many balls in her career would she have faced with someone fielding in close like that?

Finch’s strike rate has been increasingly bad for a T20 player, but at least he was batting as an opener. Coming in at 5 it’s an even bigger problem.
 
I know the way the record ages in Pakistan is dodgy but Shaheen Afridi being 23 probably being one of the biggest pistakes. Bloke is either 30 or not far off it

It should get better, they changed the law in the 2000s to require registration after birth, rather than whenever the parents felt like it/the kid needed an ID card.
