It was deliberate, he was directly looking at Ab

On second look he actually drops the ball with momentum going towards AB, almost like a short arm drop (admittedly not hard or likely to hurt him)

Landed directly on AB

Was completely pointless and 100% provactive albeit very slight and discreet (which in my mind makes it even more gutless)


That video showed nothing, the one i saw the ball clearly lands on the ground next to him. Youre all as bad as the media trying to make something out of it that isnt there. Nothing to see move on. If we are going to start penalising that there will be no one left in world cricket

I agree. I didn't see anything wrong with it.
If he dropped it on him then that would be different.
Umpire right there and didn't say anything.

Oops just saw the opposite angle footage so I'll retract my previous post.
Pretty poor from Lyon.

The ICC have charged Lyon for the run out send off

Has been charged with a level 1 breach which could be 50% of match payments or given 2 demerit points

Lyon has made contact with AB to apoligise and say no malice was intended

Playing all 3 codes has fried his brain even more, go have a break with the family son.

How good would it have been to see the Cock land one on his gonk, he was obviously being a pillick judging by his team mates, no one else was interested in sticking up for him or even look slightly perplexed.

Perhaps Dekock has been playing with Warners Candy?


Careful, Sonny.

Can’t agree.
Bout time Warner got a dose of his own medicine.

He needs to shut the eff up or cop whatever he gets back verbally and not react to it.

Agreed, 100%. Rule #1 of sledging nothing personal about family.

Provided it wasn't personal you shut up or give it back with interest observing the rule personal derogatory crap is off limits.

Mind you the best response to personal crap is to laugh and say "mate is that the best you've got!"

My response to the last few pages is that we must be doing all right ATM as the media (social and professional) have two basic threads to commenting on the Australian cricket team, we're losing, "worst team ever" "who to drop". We're winning: "Ugly Australians" "Have Australia taken sledging too far this time.... Discuss"
Let that be a lesson to you Port, no one beats the Bays five times in a row in a GF and gets away with it!!!

You can see starc really doesn’t do well against the middle order.

My guess is that the quality of the ball is critical to starc doing well.

If it’s not swinging he is in trouble for the better bats.

Hazlewood on the other hand has the accuracy to trouble the best bats even when the ball isn’t doing much
Love your work Benny.

I don't have a problem with sledging as long as (as you mentioned) it's not personal

Definitely don't agree with Lyons celebration and Warner carrying on in the changerooms/tunnel is a tad off, his celebration on field seemed fine to me without hearing what he was actually screaming.

He is an absolute fu**wit and an embarrassment to this country. If Smith gets injured and this idiot captains a Test match it will be one of the blackest moments in cricketing history.

The best sledges are ones that make the batsman think and or laugh along with you. That breaks concentration.
Personal sledges eg the one mcgrath got from the windies dickhead are off limits.
And it actually makes good bats dig in even harder in my experience.

Who remembers the good old days of personal sledging...

Ian Botham to Rod Marsh- “How is your wife and my kids?”
Rod Marsh to Ian Botham- “Wife’s fine, kids are retarded”

No punching on or being restrained by team matte back then.
1961, 1971, 1976, 1978, 1983, 1986, 1988, 1989, 1991, 2008, 2013, 2014, 2015.... And don't you forget it!

That’s not personal sledging, unless Botham actually did father the kids :)

When Mitch Marsh got Markram out it ended a run of 112 Test wickets taken by bowlers from New South Wales.

I agree with that except when you act like a self righteous flog day in and day out..........you lose any rights you have with sledging.
This day was always going to come.......shit I’m surprised no one has mentioned it previously.

Maybe Warner might pull his head in now and shut the **** up for once.

Regardless of what was said, even if it was personal, Warner being restrained as he had to be by team mates was a very ordinary look and we can reasonably assume if he wasn't held back it would have got physical. Shows his mentality.

It might be more relevant to work out how many wickets each bowler gets during each spell. Starc is typically used opening to the top order batsman, and closing out an innings cleaning up the tail.
