/// Roughly half of the Gabba’s 40,000 crowd, as Broad marked out his run-up, chanted their assertion that he practises onanism. But he reacted as one accustomed to abuse and unruffled by it. ///

Are our cricketers made of sterner stuff than some of our footballers?

No, Ramdin indicated to the umpire that he had made a fair catch by rolling the ball to him, when he clearly hadn't.

From cricinfo:

The incident took place in the ninth over of Pakistan's innings, when Misbah bottom-edged a Kemar Roach delivery to Ramdin. The wicketkeeper initially appeared to have caught the ball but lost control of it as he fell forward, and it slipped out of his gloves on to the grass. Instead of bringing his mistake to the notice of the umpires or his team-mates, Ramdin returned the ball to the square-leg umpire and joined his team-mates in the celebratory huddle.

Square-leg umpire Nigel Llong, however, alerted the third umpire and the replay revealed the chance had been dropped.

I was at that Man Utd v Spurs match.

Everyone in the ground knew it was over the line except the officials.

Obviously you can't that is why most of you failed to answer the question "Are our cricketers made of sterner stuff than some of our footballers"?

They did however chose to discuss the rights or wrongs of the certain cricketer, who decided not to 'walk'. and not the fact that he did not allow the crowd to get to him, as do some footballers.

O dear

Comprehension failure again?
or just a refusal to admit you were found out?

'Most' of the contributors avoided your 'question' because we did see through you

And found something more interesting and worthy to discuss
