Australia A tour of South Africa and Zimbabwe

[dermo]

Warner simply reminded Tsolekile that he may well have scored a ton but hes still no Amla

 

[Adders]

Warner seems like the kind of guy who would have copped abuse every time he's batted for his whole life. I'd be surprised if they'd say anything he hadn't heard before. If he plays and fails I doubt it would have been because of it.

So what was that performance all about yesterday then?? Dunno, never met the bloke but he seems like a loose cannon to me.

All depends on whether the on field chatter lifts his game or ****s it........gotta pick your targets when sledging.

 

[Riggins]

Oh no i'm not saying he won't get involved, just that it's probably nothing new. the blokes a ****, he would have been involved in those abusive exchanges since he was 15. I'm not saying it's a good thing, just that I think he'd be used enough to it by now.

 

[Riggins]

No doubt the media will credit the sledging as having a massive influence on his performance though. If he makes runs, it will be because the sledging spurred him on and make him concentrate even harder. If he fails it will be the sledging bringing about his downfall, mentally weak etc.

Lets just hope for all concerned it ends up being the latter

He'd probably accuse Sutherland of bribing Warner to do it.

no doubt he cracked the ****s and flung a plastic bat when he had to retire during milo cricket

 

[Riggins]

those plastic bats with rubber grips on them were ****ing ****.

he probably got angry at bowlers when they bowled wides and you had to hit off that little tee thing

no matter who sledges him, if he runs off and hits KP it's a win win for England fans, Australian fans and world cricket as a whole.

 

[Tangles]

Be better if he hit Twatto.

At least in Milo cricket there would't have been any beards to really set him off.

He's too headstrong and thick to lose an argument, really.

Ikki with pads.

 

[Maximas]

Can we expect another placid pitch or will there actually be some assistance for the bowlers? The games almost become meaningless if the track is as flat as last time.

 

[Tangles]

England won so why would they need to provide a pitch that did more? A pitch with sideways movement might see a 3 dayer.

Look at which thread you're in.

 

[Adders]

Perhaps Tangles is trying a new angle for the whole South Africa/England thing.

That actually raises an interesting point.......why is this in the Ashes sub forum??
