Tbh, I think that Marsh would have gone for more runs if they let him on.
of course he would go for me he's an allrounder and lyon primary bowler

I feel really sorry for Candice...
She always puts her family first and now it's so sad hearing her say it was her fault...
Guess Warner should've thought about her before taking a part in all of this mess... :(

Look I think Warner was a genuine human being then and he meant what he was crying about! So those weren't fake at all in my opinion, but then this is subjective.
It's not Candice's nor the daughters' fault it is though? So that's why I thought she's unnecessarily treated like a perpretrator here and that's why her tears were genuine!
I guess we've just ought to move on and treat this as a lesson to learn what not to do and how this is poor sportsmanship.

But yeah their families shouldn't suffer! Many times their family doesn't even know what these men are up to until everything is revealed!!
So not fair on Candice and their little girls...

Thoughts on all of cricket moving to channel 7? I think it's a bad move especially how channel 7 is known to show excessive amounts of ads and miss some live content. Since tennis and cricket air at the same time, channel 7 will be bias and show more tennis than cricket during the summer time.

Worst decision, 7 only showing men's tests and the majority of BBL not all of it. Its a complete joke since its supposed to attract the younger audiences espeically during the summer holidays. Now only the rich kids can enjoy all of the summer of cricket with Foxtel. However, the women's cricket was a good move. Plus, gonna miss that classic 9 cricket intro :'(

idk about Langer I was only able to watch the last few years of his career, a great player but from all accounts a slimy person with poor sportsmanship (cheating/attempting to cheat during his career). Also just recently said he would've ball tampered if asked by a senior player  ::)

Thoughts on Warner being let back into the Aus cricket team? He seems to have been the main instigator of things ^^.

He also does have a reputation of being the hot head of the team.

Hmm thought it was common knowledge, probably the most prominent was him intentionally lifting the bails whilst fielding.
Not technically "cheating" (although the aus public has a huge problem with it if it isn't one of our players e.g. Stuart broad) I would put this under ethically quesitonable - numerous amount of times getting thick edges (even to first slip once) and not walking  - although you'd think the umpires were in on it too haha.

You should be able to youtube all of this :)
