Dont disagree with Paine on Ashwin though, he's a bell of the highest order.


Oh really? What is your opinion of him based on? The Buttler mankading incident? The verdict is still out on that one. Other than that, he hasnt ever had any run-ins with anyone. Paine chat behind the stumps was plain pathetic.

I am surprised how Smith got away with that. Based on the law as pointed here, it seems clearly a violation to mess with the pitch when he had no business to do so. I thought newlands was a one off, but after seeing this, don't have any sympathies for him..

There was plenty of rubbish chat from Pant behind the stumps too  :D

Agree, don't remember Ashwin having any past record of misbehavior. Certainly don't think mankading falls under negative behavior category even by slightest means..

Home umpires and match referee. Boon was the match referee - no chance he’d react on it

Fair enough, but I dont think he called anyone a dickhead. Sometimes when you have been trumped and dont have a better come back, its better to just take it on the chin as a man. Calling someone a dickhead and saying noone likes him is just a loser's comeback.

This entire sledging business is retarded ! Before things get out of control, ICC/MCC need to step in and create strict guidelines against it.

They got bent out of shape over bat sizes but calling for bodily injury is perfectly acceptable?!

I genuinely thought the Aussies had moved on from Newlands and had started to play the game in a more NZ style approach - hard but fair.

Paine, Wade and Smith’s conduct in this match has proven that they’ve reverted to type pretty quickly.

Steve Smith didn’t do anything illegal by scratching the crease, but it’s shithousery of the highest order and has changed my view of him. I genuinely thought he’d changed since sandpaper gate but obviously not.

Got to hand it to Australia it takes a  real effort to make the mighty all powerful Indian team look like the “plucky good guys” in a Test Series...

The cricket has been of a very high order but the behaviour of the Australian players has been very poor and I haven't seen anything whilst watching to understand why the Australian players are swearing at the umpire, damaging the pitch and generally crossing well beyond the line with their verbal abuse and threats.  I know Kholi isn't going to win a popularity contest, but he was only around for one game which was the least competitive of the series.  Once he left, the Indian team seems to be a mix of solid experienced pros and young players covering the holes left by injuries, none of whom seem to be particularly objectionable.  Perhaps the full details aren't being reported in the UK, but it is hard to see why one team has resorted to this.

After watching "The Test" I too thought Aussie were going down a new path under Langer and Paine. Sigh...same old Aussie.

As expected Paine had claimed it was smith shadow batting.  “if he was then the Indian players would have kicked up a bit of a stink at the time” - made me laugh.

Bumrah, Vihari and potentially Ashwin out for the last test. This could be possible the least experienced Indian test bowling lineup ever; Siraj,Saini,Shardul/Natarajan,Kuldeep.

I'd love to see Natarajan given a go, think he's one of the most exciting I've watched in recent years.
