Vaughan,



http://www.telegraph.co.uk/cricket/2...best-response/

England are going to get plenty too when they visit India next. Maynot be the case like unfortunate events folded in the last odi but they will be at the receiving end plenty. Good exercise for this young team how they react under pressure when such things happen

Michael Vaughan is an absolute gobshite. Using him as evidence is funny. Buttler is as quiet as a doormouse, wouldn't hurt a fly. The fact he reacted is the most telling thing.

The Bangladesh side were in the wrong celebrating at Buttler, if Mortaza is happy with that then shame on him. Hopefully we stuff you tomorrow now.

The thing about Bangladesh cricket and their most vocal online fans (read trolls) is that their behaviour is no different to any of the other ill behaved cricket teams and fans, what's interesting is that they make a very conscious effort to emulate that kind of behaviour. They feel like 'we're newbies, let's just emulate the big bullies we've grown up watching and getting bullied by'. Bangladeshi cricketers have been aggressive for a while now and they don't shy away from having a word or getting in your face. But for the ROW, it's a big deal because it's Bangladesh who is doing it and therein lies their own prejudices and biases.
I remember when Shakib and Wahab had a tiff last year, Ramiz wrote an article on Bangladesh cricket and his main point was 'wow even these Bangladeshis are staring back at us, look how far we have fallen as a team'

To counter Jono's point, Indians, Australians and English teams have behaved like this since forever. Sometimes they get fined, sometimes they don't. No one gets surprised or no one reacts "OMG the Aussies gave us a send off". It's when this team which no one really pays attention to at most times engages in this that everyone gets shocked. And they are only doing this for some sort of attention, that no one pays any to them which whether rightly or not, they feel they have earned.

Hang on. When the likes of Warner, Smith, Stokes etc do stupid stuff they get called out about on here and in parts of their own and opposition press. Warner and Australia get trashed on here for their bad behaviour.

Stop giving me this chip on the shoulder, victim crap

yeah this was exactly the point i was going to make.

australian behaviour on the cricket pitch is one of the most done to death subjects on this board.

all one of their players has to do is have a little chirp on the pitch and some people go into an epic meltdown.

Looks like storms are going to wash out the 3rd ODI.

Think Bangladesh would have taken a 1-1 result. England probably not.

Lol come on Pews.....your better than that!!. Did you read the article?

There isnt time in the schedule to fit in a spare day........the ODI players fly home tomorrow and we play a test match next week! Never mind the level of security surrounding this tour.......a last minute change to the schedule would be a logistics nightmare.

Yes, and that's why I posted an image of the headline instead of posting the link. :p

I was just playing; didn't expect people to reply seriously. The tone of the thread over the last couple pf pages has got everyone on edge a bit I guess, but my bad for accidentally trolling.

Probably grew up watching old games where players would be surrounded by fans at every milestone. Realized this was his only chance to have that experience and wanted to soak in the moment. Don't see what's so impressive.

With the level of security promised to England (tanks as ******s ffs) I'm actually surprised that only one uniformed officer, a dude trying to look important with his walkie talkie, a fat bloke and a couple of random staff ran out to pull the streaker away.
