Must say I'd like to be able to hear what goes on in the next test out in the middle. Umps and match ref will be under pressure bit more than usual one would think.
I always thought Steve Smith was a bit thick.......
Steve Smith wrote:"The ICC have set the standard, haven't they? There was clearly contact. He bumped me a little bit harder than it actually looked on the footage.
"They've deemed the contact not to be deliberate and set the line in the sand of what is appropriate and what's not."
The ICC panel found him guilty didn't they?
It was an independent commissioner that overturned that on appeal.
Anyway I thought the Aussies liked their line in the sand

Come in Bummer, chardonnay & ossie fool, let's hear you defend your scumbag cricketers over their latest attempts to drag cricket down to the depths of A.F.L. Let's hear the excuses for your " leadership teams " latest admitted cricketing atrocities. World champion hypocrites.
Nothing to defend. Anyone involved should be stood down immediately. Inexcusable. Although its not like the poms were squeaky clean when it comes to fiddling with the ball, so remember those glasshouses.
