Labuschagne antics are so fucking cringeworthy. The “no run” at the top of his lungs on a left fucking ball should be a finable. And fuck Steve Smith for buying into it.
Didn't see the incident you're talking about, but I noticed in Melbourne the Aussie bats getting more vocal in calling "no run" in response to Pant's incessant jibber jabber.
If it's just a tool to cut through the rubbish - maybe on sports psychologist advice or a tactical thing from Langer - then maybe they feel it's working for them.
I assume you're not listening to Warne in commentary?
Marnus was overly vocal last year as well, no Pant.
I think his inspiration is copying Steve Smith. Unwatchable batsman IMO, as a viewer.Yesterday, his constant chirping of Gill, when at short leg, when tv producers just focused on him for an over or 2 and commentators kept quiet. Was 'interesting '.
ABC radio comms, the female one, says Smith and Labuschagne are described as being mayo. The mayonnaise in top of the salad. The overly loud and dramatic calling, dramatic leaves, etc. New term to me

Don't remember either seeing it or seeing Kiwis complaining about it on the Fern while simultaneously giving Kane Williamson a virtual handy.
Therefore I'm struggling to believe you

Was Marnus not mocked, teased, sledged last year by asking him if Steve Smith was his favourite player. As in he was a mini-me of Smith with style and mannerisms. Not by us though surely, we'd never do that, must have been the poems....
He spent a few minutes asking Gill yesterday who his favorite batsman was, and suggesting lists of Indian batters he was copying.

Ha! That's funny.
Like Tim Paine "I know he’s your captain, but you can’t seriously like him as a bloke" re: Kohli.
I'll bet Rahane was copping some shit in Adelaide for running Kohli out, too

Paine in the great Aussie keeper tradition of appealing for fuck all.
swearing at the umpire's not cool though - he should lose some match fee and pick up some points for that.

This game is all over now.
the crumble started with the needless runout. Huge moment in the game

No idea where to post this, but it seemed worthy of putting somewhere

It has been referred and it'll be fine minimum, suspension of probably one Test at most.
Also reported that there was some racial bullshit from the crowd toward Siraj and ?Bumrah? yesterday. Five year ban is my preferred option there.

Further to that, as just pointed out on the Channel 7 coverage: this is the most surveilled crowd in Test Match history. Names, phone numbers, addresses, and seat numbers due to COVID.
Therefore tracking down whoever it was shouldn't be too hard.
At the same time, the press photographers around the boundary apparently didn't hear anything.
So the fallout will be interesting
