Sewag said that last year but that isn't true though, is it?

The Aussies don't sledge Kohli because that actually fires him up and he plays better.

Interesting. I have heard rumours that bullies don't pick on those that can respond.

You've gotta know when to hold 'em, boet. Know when to fold 'em.

But, gee. That footage was leaked pretty damn quickly, wasn't it?

What was the media generated scandal that wasn't when England were here this summer?

And what was it last summer?

And the year before that?

Go on, tell us.

Warner sledges de Kock on the boundary rope by calling him a “f$&king sook...” as the 2 S.A batsmen are taking off their helmets on the boundary rope after they’ve gone off for the tea break,FFS.

There you go, for such an innocent chap, he sure seems to attract a lot of ire, you know from match officials and the like

The responsibility has also seems to have led him to mellow out and not act like a plum 24/7 which is good.

The big bash is so popular and gives Australia so much depth that you could easily just form a specialist T20 team just from there with the odd frontline ODI player such as Warner or Starc just chucked in.

Probably a good thing as I think that T20 skills are the least transferable to the the other forms of the game.

Warner hasn't been a plum for years now. Dude doesn't drink and has a young family. He's as dumb as a box of hammers but he's growing on me as a captain in this form of the game.

I was out at a comedy show last night so only caught a few bits of it. A real shame about Lynn. He's made of glass. Possibly one of the scariest batsmen in the world but he really needs to take a year off to get better.

As for the Australian team, a mate of mine and I were chatting about it last night. They put up the team sheet on the screen and we both agreed that it's a nasty, vicious Australian team in terms of batting. Power all the way down the order. When superstars in the BBL like Carey are batting at seven, you know you've got some talent. Main issue is still the bowling and I think they really need a talented spinner like Rashid Khan. Someone who can strangle a team for 4 overs.

Years...

Bro, the only way that sledge would work is if it went along the lines of: "Mrs Warner loves De Kock. SBW De Kock" but that would be puerile and potentially untrue and probably likely to annoy David, so why would anyone bother?
