yeah he was at the end of the match there but overall he has alot of issues i think, like in the first test he was whinging about time wasting by England and then to the lead up of the 2nd test questioned Flintoffs timing of his retirement announcement.
I think he had a point with the first statement. We were holding up the game during the closing minutes of the first test, I found it a little embarrassing and so did the players at the crease, it was quite unsporting but fortunately only a minor event. I also think he has a right to complain about the inconsistency of the umpiring decisions lately. Overall I don't think he's been too bad in this series, although I've disliked his behavious in the past on occasion.
I remember in 2006/07 Ashes, Shane Warne deliberately bowling wides at Kevin Pietersen because Pietersen was getting the better of him. There has always been a bit of needle between the old cricketing foes, England vs Australia is like England vs Germany in football!
Yeah thats why he got abit of flack here, i mean if the roles were reversed i think that Ricky would do the same thing. and we all know about the Aussies trash talking!
Besides its good to have the English win its boring when we win against them all the time, its good to have a contest!
