Indeed

He has to defend them though, as otherwise surely the other 8 people in that team that day will be thrown into how much they knew about the sandpaper. Then face bans themselves.

Funny that none of the bowlers questioned how the ball was reverse swinging as much as it was. Almost like they were fully behind it.
Wasn't it Stuart Broad who went on record questioning just how the Aussie bowlers got the ball to swing early, then reverse swing late on, in the earlier Ashes series in Australia, when certain members of the England attack, renowned for their ability to move the ball in the air, were gun-barrel straight for the whole of that series?

Makes you think how long they had actually been getting away with it. Hard to believe they got caught the very first time they tried it.

Indeed it was Broad but no way anyone would dare break ranks over an Ashes series.

Throwing people under the bus for a South Africa series more so.

Aye apparently the bowlers knew nothing about the sandpaper being used in South Africa as well.

Anyone who knows anything about cricket knows how much bowlers at all levels of playing let alone test match players know every minuscule detail of the ball their using.

Utter bollocks from the Aussie bowlers.

^This. Lost count of the number of times as a young lad I got a rollicking for shining the wrong side or letting the ball bounce on it's way back to the bowler.
 
What's he done wrong here?
Seriously?

He had a personally motivated dig at an Australia player during a test series. He can hardly expect to be given a podium at an event related to that test series. What if he'd put the boot into Warner again, in his speech?

Don't think that makes him a bellend like but fair enough.
