Re: The Cricket Thread (...and other sport)
Lots of controversy around Broad not walking when he was clearly out, but not so much surrounding Trott when he was clearly not out. What goes around comes around. May have to pull Trevor Chappell out of the bag if the Aussies go for the old spirit of the game whinge. Great game innit
We've still got Root's 2nd innings dismissal and Trott's howler to be paid back for. Whinge all they like, what goes around....

These things have a way of evening themselves out
Broad should have walked though

If I get caught tomorrow I'm not walking just for the hell of it, I don't care if it's come straight out of the middle (unlikely ...)

Re: The Cricket Thread (...and other sport)
I was just reading an article by an Aussie 'journalist' talking about cricket ethics, oh what short memories, oh the irony. EVERY batsman in the modern game would do the same. I suggest the Aussies get on with playing the game and stop whinging.

Well Broad's non dismissal cancels out Agar's non dismissal. It is now up to Broad to make them pay like Agar did to us. Broad loves being the antagonist, so I wouldn't put it past him.

I know that was tongue in cheek but I just got directed to this incident. How could Ponting even show his face after this ? Im not surprised Gavaskar was annoyed.
