They threw that kid under the bus when Smith sneered in the press conference, " you tell them what you did". The cheating ( ever seen the photos of Warner's bandaged fingers in England?) was something, but the cowardly cover up was something else.
For all the pearl clutching at ball tampering, every side has done it. It's just that none have positioned themselves as the holder of 'the line', and the moral owners of The Spirit Of Cricket. Pride, as they say, goes before a fall.
I do feel sorry for Bancroft though. He's come out of this worst.
I was amused at the 'clearing the air' from the bowling group... they could not possibly know anything about the condition being altered, no sir. Not possible.

Astonishing performance in the County Championship by 45 year old Darren Stevens of Kent, who hit 190 with 15 fours and 15 sixes coming in at No7. He now has the first class world record for domination of a partnership over 100. In the ninth wicket stand of 166 his partner Miguel Cummins hit... 1!

@catogrande I've always liked a solid defense, Miguel!

Good discipline to not swing out when the guy at the other end is seeing it like a beach ball.

Shakib determined to get banned again...
I heard that it was a reaction to corrupt officials calling players off for rain in dry conditions with his team about to win the match.
Not sure how true - just repeating intenet 'facts'. But it's in the Bangladesh league I think?

Well that’s a hiding and then some.
With the test championship final decided I’m assuming this is a “friendly” ?

We need the ICC to make a massive example of him. We can't have any kids thinking this is in any way justifiable behaviour

Australia v West Indies T20I on at the moment. Australia have been blitzing the run rate chasing 146, but some journeyman batting from several Aussies has them in danger of being all out. Now 125/8 as I type as Old Man Dan needlessly holes out to long on.
-
Great win to the Windies when they looked well short with the bat.
Comically bad cricket from the Australian batsmen. They played like they had an early dinner reservation.

Ridiculous Glen Phillips catch for Gloucestershire- -

@donsteppa it was a pretty good recovery by the Windies batsmen after they were on the ropes early on.
-
The Windies just thrashed Oz in the second T20, making 196/4 then bowling the Aussies out for 140.
