Paine quits in tears over explicit texts

[The Hesford Diet]

Couldn't happen to a more worthy person

So the end of his time as captain ended as it began. With a ball-tampering scandal.

The Aussie cricket captains dont half love a tearful press conference mind how many now??

Paves the way for Smith to take over and for them to get a half decent keeper... could have at least waited a couple weeks

Manager bounce

Bad thing for England this. TP is a very limited cricketer and has done amazingly to hold down his roll for so long given his level of talent (and morals ha).

Exactly my thoughts when I just heard it on the news.

Pat Cummins expected to take over.

The annoying thing is, they’ll likely get in someone better than Paine now as he was only in the team due to the fact he was captain anyway.

Any other time I'd be overjoyed to see an Aussie captain get the sack.

Hang on in there 'til January Dim.

He's staying on as keeper so not all bad.

I agree. In treating how CA knowing what he had done make him captain and accept his resignation because the public are going to find out. What morals.

Only bettered by watching mags cry on Sky imo.

This all seems very odd, CA say no action was taken as it was a consensual act between two adults but police charges are still pending??
