Maybe i'm just old school, but when did they stop fining players for celebration style appeals?

Stuart Broad has been running down the pitch celebrating LBWs without even turning to look at the umpire to the appeal all Ashes. The weirdest part being that when the umpire gives it not out, more often than not he doesn't end up reviewing.

Conway just did the same thing for an LBW in the scorchers game and it would have been lucky to hit a second set of stumps it was so far down leg. I swear they used to fine bowlers for that.

Geez who would have thought having such a long tail would come back to bite them
:drunk:

Good thing they are so far ahead on the table.

Should be getting Marsh, Inglis, Munro, Kelly and Bancroft(yay?) back soon
 
Anyone see the Indians blow up last night? This current mob are the least likeable Indian team ever I reckon.
Don’t mind them that much when Kohli’s not playing but yeah. Not great.

Saffers new KP looks decent. Just need some more batting depth

But the South African pace bowling attack has got some unbelievable numbers. Rabada 233 wickets at 22.43 - and that's the worst average in the team. Olivier 53 at 21.11, Ngidi 47 at 20.65, Jansen 19 at 16.47. Nortje is a more than handy reserve.
 
That's gotta go on the Most Comical Dismissals in world cricket reel.
Would love to hear some of the worst from those on the board.

My worst was probably rocking up to a 3rds game to find the opposition (home side) didn’t have bails, so they put a large twig on top of the stumps instead which hung over each side about an extra 3cm. First ball, perfect leave, the ball brushes the outside of the twig and I’m out bowled. Apparently.

At least I’m over it, all these years later…
