Agreed, but by the same token the SA behaviour is deplorable, not that it's an excuse for Warner!

Officials wearing those Sonny Bill masks is deplorable IMO...the ICC should step in and read the riot act to both teams on this childish stuff.
Warner brings it on himself for sure but Saffies have continued it on and I wasnt impressed with Rabada's physical approach with Smith and he should be fined and spoken to.

SA is a funny country, you go there on business and they think strip clubs are a great night out, it's like winding the clock back 3 or 4 decades!

EB1, do you see what I mean about the SA run rates? 74 overs, at 2.3, that is as bad as Boycott at his worst!

I was listening to SEN a day or two ago and the presenter was shocked that around 90% of callers/texters were critical of Warner’s behaviour.

...but Kane Cornes is an opinionated flog with a hyperinflated idea about the value of his opinion to the rest of the human race.

Fair call LP...the Saffies were very slow in making their runs and confirmed your opinions, most of the action in SA seems to be off the field in the stairwells Wink

Agree...listening to him on trade radio was enough for me....Matthew Lloyd actually looked and sounded like a rational balanced individual in
comparison to KC...his brother was another clown..

Back to the cricket...ABDevilliers has taken the Saffies to a decent lead , scored a very nice century( 100 of 118 balls) and we are struggling at 3 for 86.....Rabada bowled Warner with a peach and Smith cant seem to play left arm spin anymore and has fallen to Maharaj again.
Still about 50 behind so it aint looking flash....the whole Warner/DeKock saga seems to have fired the Saffies up and Rababa should be fined again after sending Warner off in a unpleasant manner...
