Yep, likely both.

Isn't fear of speaking up a sign of bullying?

He seems to be copping a fair serve from the commentators I'm listening too. Even Catherine Murphy had a crack at him on the wireless this morning.

I think the bulk of the critical commentary is coming from non-traditional / non-traveling sources.
The past player commentators and full time traveling cricket commentators are suspiciously quiet, they know the BCCI butters their bread, and they try hard to avoid getting death threats when they visit the sub-continent.

Michael Vaugh said he is good for the game but Australian cricketers step over the line.

Well, that sort of says it all doesn't it!
Back on the game, our attack looks pretty limp, we might have to wait until after lunch for something to happen.
PS: Glad I jinxed myself! :o

That is what separates the players from the greats.

Shami & Bumera in.....there should be a little finger music before they dismiss the last one ....
