James Anderson says Australia is bullying England

[TNT]

Anderson is being bullied and all you guys want to talk about is which cricketer you find most attractive.

Starc is bullying Anderson, and you guys are treating it as a joke.

Anyone else remember the glutes on Michael Kasprowicz?

Now that was a man

Face like a workman's bench.

ECB select Stokes for ODI's and Anderson complains that the Aussies said bad things to him, and you play small violins, have you no shame.

 

[mr_mister]

No, could you clarify what you mean by this actually? Asking for a friend

rough around the edges, uneducated

Classist bigot, welcome to my ignore list.

Classist bigot, welcome to my ignore list.

According to my wife:

Cook
Cummins
Anderson
The rest.

As far as looks go.

And Root looking like Ellen says more about Ellen than it does about Root looks-wise.

Cummins
T Curran
Anderson
Agar
Wagner

Looks like Lurch from the Addams Family.

With slower footwork

Underrated comment

oh if it's obvious I guess I'd better change my opinion

Were the Aussie players sledging Bairstow about the suicide of his father?

If so, Australia should be thrown out of world cricket.

 

[Daemon]

Where did you hear that from lol. I struggle to believe there's anyone in international cricket who'd do that.

Bairstow has said today in his newspaper column that he "Will take matters further" if the Aussie sledging crosses the line again.

"Some other things apart from the headbutt business were said by Australia in the middle but what they were is staying there"


You can only assume that with his book out recently that something has been said about his dad as I can't see anything else would upset him that much. Hopefully not but it is the easy conclusion to make.

people have read what he said and what prior said and put 2 and 2 together and come up with 5. mainly just baseless speculation on twitter.

i find it highly unlikely any opponent of his would stoop to such lows.

Bob Willis on Sky also mentioned the 'Personal nature' of the chat in the middle and that it had crossed the line. It's speculation of course, but that's the lowest of the low if true.

 

[ImpatientLime]

How the **** would Bob Willis know?

 

[Furball]

lol Starc is a very good-looking guy. That's obvious

He really isn't.

 

[Arachnodouche]

Yeah, Starc is lanky and awkward, and looks like Bill Lawry and Matthew Elliott's illegitimate child.
