The Aussies thoroughly deserved to win this series but they don't need to be such dickheads about it.
Konstas looks like the next cab off the rank. At least we had a year without an Aussie wanker of an opener.good luck with that![]()
He's just a bish bash bosh merchant. Doesn't have the correct technique for test cricket. I doubt he'll last more than a couple of series.Konstas looks like the next cab off the rank. At least we had a year without an Aussie wanker of an opener.
Oh right, so nothing but respond to the Aussies’ racist taunts reminding them of their cheating past… He’s made up for the shoulder barge in my eyesWhat’s he done now?
Have to call you out on that one. Yes he isn’t a traditional test opener of yester-year but he has a very solid technique. His style is very much a product of modern day cricket, he has been brought up on (some may argue too much) variations of the shorter form, namely T20’s. But he does have a solid 200 under his belt in Sydney grade cricket, along with back to back hundreds in the same match in shield. He swings for the rafters just like any number of test batsmen in the modern era, but to call him a bish bash bosh merchant is narrow.He's just a bish bash bosh merchant.

If the taliban are as bad as reported and the treatment of women etc has reached new lows we shouldn’t be playing thereTwenty years later here we are again with the government putting pressure on the ECB to basically forfeit a game.
Don’t recall this outrage when the football team had to play Iran….

England-Afghanistan boycott calls: MP says players have 'power' to refuse to play Champions Trophy match
England's men's players have the "power" to make their own stand and refuse to play Afghanistan in the Champions Trophy, says Labour MP Tonia Antoniazzi.www.bbc.co.uk
Totally agree but both Australia and SA need to as well in that case.If the taliban are as bad as reported and the treatment of women etc has reached new lows we shouldn’t be playing there
Gould & Thompson need to grow a pair, call it out and threaten to pull our teams out of the ICC unless they condemn Afghanistan and throw them out
You can’t legitimise these regimes
Smidge impatient on that one Dunc.Looks like a change of management hasn't helped England (well maybe helped Buttler, but no one else)!!
I mean if your going on how many runs an over you get hit for, Archer shouldn't be near the side either! Like the women's team it needs an overhaul (albeit they need a new coach as well)! Wheeling the same players out and expect a different result is madness!How does Overton get in this side, am I missing something?
I just think he’s a bang average county player and if he’s seriously an international no 7 and bowler then we’ve got some serious problems!I mean if your going on how many runs an over you get hit for, Archer shouldn't be near the side either!
