[Deaneus!]

Saffers getting whacked, that's great

*checks NZ v England score*

 

[CrowBloke]

Khawaja , lost his wicket just before a break. Again.
With a shot he didn't have to play. Again.

Anyone watching?
Did Warner take to Rabada?

 

[John Who]

Smith is having an average series in SA thus far. Bancroft is finally kicking into gear for us. Hope he can go on and reach a ton. Aim for 300 with some wickets in hand by the end of Day2, and we're looking solid.

They’ve got into smiths head imo

 

[John Who]

Another wicket going down. Shaun Marsh also doing a Smithy, getting starts but no major influence in the series!

 

[John Who]

How many batting collapses has there been in this series?? We'd be lucky to just draw even with the 1st innings.

 

[CrowBloke]

Like SA, we lost 5/25 in the middle order, except Bancroft did not go on as Elgar had
= first innings deficit.

 

[Kane McGoodwin]

Series is getting away from us.

Saffies lead by 160 with 9 wickets remaining.

Can't see us chasing more than 250.

Need another collapse like the first innings...

 

[Pea Nut]

All shit is about to hit the fan with the ball tampering scandal. Bancroft is in deep shit !!

 

[CrowBloke]

"South Africa lead Australia by 294 runs with 5 wickets remaining — Close of play" with ABdeV still at the crease, unlikely to repeat his shot from the first dig.
Aussies need two miracles:
--- dismiss SA for no more than a 350-run deficit, and
--- for our middle order to stick around. For a change.

Yep ==> http://www.abc.net.au/news/2018-03-25/cameron-bancroft-ball-tampering/9583794
Blame aimed at Smith and Lehmann. Stay tuned.

 

[diligaf473]

Smith has to stand down as captain. Disgraceful act all round. The supposed torch bearers of fair play have shamed themselves and our country. Hand the win to the Saffers.

I am officially out. This is premeditated cheating from captain down. All respect for our baggy green is gone. Smith if acting alone should be sacked from captain. How could they be so stupid!

Smith comes out and admits the leadership group knew about it WTF?

They should all be suspended and Leadership group sacked. Smith never to captain any side ever again. Same gos for whoever is in the leadership group.

I havent really followed cricket properly for at least five years but after seeing that presser this morning In embarrassed and ashamed to have ever supported the team.

Disgraceful. And I cant believe how smug Smith came across, showing sod all remorse.

 

[hey shorty]

Smith should be sacked immediately, problem is his VC is a flog and no one else really deserves the spot. Lehmann too if he had any knowledge

Could be Lyon I guess, and as for Bancroft, he should never be seen again. But you have to wonder how much pressure Smith put on him as the guy most at risk in the side.

Who is in the leadership group?

 

[hey shorty]

Who is in the leadership group?

Warner and Lyon, so it probably rules Lyon out.

Who else

 

[Drugs Are Bad Mackay?]

Makes it difficult to barrack for them

Like the Chappell underarm incident, this will taint us for a long time

 

[Ramify]

So I guess we should now go back and reevaluate every single allegation, rumour or bit of inuendo directed at an Australian cricket team or member.

Filthy cheating bastards.

 

[hey shorty]

The fact we were arrogant enough to try it gives me the ****s

 

[feenix67]

Smith can't see how terrible his leadership is to make a rookie tamper the ball on his instruction. So arrogant he says he "wont consider standing down" as if it's even his decision.

I dont care how good a batsman he is, kick him out of the team, along with the rest of the leadership group. Bancroft carries some responsibility, but its the senior blokes who hatched the plot. Get them out.

We won't though, and that's why I dont support or follow the Australian Cricket team.

 

[Elite Crow]

Warner and Lyon, so it probably rules Lyon out.

Who else

And that’s why Smith threw the leadership group under the bus too.

Is Mitch Marsh established enough yet? He’s captaining WA.

 

[Elite Crow]

That’s what I can’t understand, the cameras pick up everything. It’s almost as if Charlie Dixon came up with the plot.

 

[radiojake]

well looks like I went to bed about 10 overs too early last night!

wow that's massive

I'm pretty sure Mark Nicholas mentioning something about '30 cameras' around the ground and they did a bit where the various camera guys waved while being on screen..

if there is 30 cameras around the ground, you'd have to think atleast 10 are just looking for random odd things to film, rather than the play

That looks dodgy as hell.
Not good at all.
