Which Aust player likes to go on field with a toasted sanga in his pocket?

Jokes aside, it is pretty creepy that the coach is keeping tabs on what's there in the pockets of fully grown men. Maybe it's a thing post sandpaper shenanigans but it's one more reason to Sack Langer!

Its time to accept reality - India won because we had the better coach. Ravi Shastri, Bewda himself, is THE ONE.

He allows Rishabh Pant to smuggle samosas in his pants during the game, he allows Rohit all the vada pavs he wants. He lets Kohli yell BC till he himself wants a break. The model coach, ladies and gentlemen.
lets his players break quarantine for mediocre chinese food

Toasties is like when sunnies became a thing. When it first came in it raised questions. Having a toastie in your pocket might make you more likely to dive for that hip busting ball. It might help you relax in tense moments. It might keep you operating at full alert instead of fading away as lunch approaches. There is no convincing me otherwise on this. Toast should be allowed on the field.

A mate of mine used to always field with his phone in his pocket lol. Like the sandwich thing, it might make a player hesitant to dive for a ball in the field which arguably is something a coach should take issue with
Wow didn't know you were friends with Salman Butt.

In my head I had the player taking a pop tart onto the field in his pocket, which is much more reasonable IMO.

Jokes aside, you’re a professional sportsman in the only game in the world which already stops for a ****ing meal break twice a day. This strikes me as a very Marnus try-hard thing to do in the hope it’ll leak and people will find it weirdly endearing instead of the self indulgent cringe it really is.

tbh the biggest surprise is that CA still allows the Australian kit to have pockets

Pockets should be banned

No zipgate, no dirt in the pocket, no sandpaper, no murray mints, no jellybeans. #banpockets
What about underpants? Underpants can be pockets

I’m kinda coming round the the idea of always having half a cheese toastie in a pocket.

You can't ban underpants. That's naturally where the toasts will go next time.
