Dave went on tilt. You gotta expect a few digs if you’re gunna marry someone whose claim to fame is having a root in a toilet with an athlete twice the size of you. I’m guessing everything of SBW is twice the size of Davey, and I’m pretty sure the Saffers were asking that very question. Dave went on tilt while representing Oz, on national tv, bringing the game, team, country, captain and his younger opening partner, into his inability to keep his emotions and mental weakness in check. It took a while for me to forgive Dave, and Smith. But the punishment handed out was a bit OTT, but it was as heavy as it should have been the very first time someone did it and maybe no one does it again. Ruined a young blokes career, there is no punishment worse for a young cricket player.
I do find Jedi’s hate red for Smith illogical due to the above and by that standard anyone who cheats anywhere at anything he should hold to the same standard. I heard when Stokes went on a scooter they didn’t wear helmets, that is cheating the system, so he should hate England and everyone who has ever played for them.
I have read many things on ball tampering, everyone does it but no one admits to it, and if you haven’t then you haven’t played.
