In my opinion, I’m glad the Australians are self imploding with all this off the field antics and ball tampering, because if they came here to actually just play cricket, I think they would be way behind on the score boards.

FTFY.

And Lehmann? Or is the instigator gonna let his minions take the fall for him?

Bancroft confirms he used yellow tape to collect rough granules from the pitch to try and change the condition of the ball. Smith admits this was a team tactic #SAvAUS

Bet he wouldn't have regretted it if it wasn't caught on camera.

Smith: "I wont consider stepping down [from captaincy]. I still think I am the right person for the job."

Sums it up nicely.

Which is why I said that the words, "Aussie" and "bastard" is no incidental collocation.

"Aussie bastard" has been coming along for a long time.

Updates were supposed to be on channel 200.
They are showing text updates. I'm not sure what Bancroft means when he says he was in the wrong place at the wrong time.

Claims they used tape and it was the players who made the decision

It means he was in the field of view of the camera.
