Just saw the highlights and found it rather amusing when Prior's giving Warner some lip service.

Warner's averaging 91 in the series with 2 hundreds and 2 fifties.

Whereas Prior's been a walking wicket and barely hanging on to his international career...

Neither should be gobbing off really

Prior shouldn't as he's in poo form and his team are getting spanked
Warner shouldn't as he's not got the brain and he's doing his talking via runs so there is no need. Leave sledging to the weak and feeble

Amusing? Why amusing?

Sledging, possibly the most non-gentlemanly bit of cricket, is an attempt to get under the opposition skin and put them off their game. It is designed to be given by the team getting stuffed because the team on top don't need to do it.

Therefore you should expect it from Prior.

Warner gives his fair share so should expect it back if you ask me. Obviously Prior looks a bit of a prat when we misses a stumping off of him

Na, it's the keepers job to give batters little bits n pieces of info!  (It's also their job to stump batters who are halfway down to wicket)

I think Warner has grown up a bit, we all make mistakes, it's not repeating them that's the key.

IIRC Prior once threw jellybeans on the pitch when Zaheer Khan was batting, implying Khan was fat.

Khan took 9 wickets in the match and Prior looked like an even bigger prat.

Prior's gotten so far up his own ass it's incredible. Average glove man and slogger with the bat. Pick Davies, a nice lad from Surrey...

Thats an unfair comment..as said, its something that you would expect from a keeper...but yes, his personal form is poor and Eng shud look at a replacement..give a new keeper a chance...anyways, the big question now is, will Aus declare or will they continue the mayhem!!

Looking at that pitch, the batters better be careful running between the wickets else they could easily fall through one of those cracks!!!

That's the WACA, the ball sounds different off the bat, comes off harder.
