Make Stuart Broad cry - Darren Lehman

Australia coach Darren Lehmann has called on fans to make England's Stuart Broad “cry” over his "blatant cheating" in the first Ashes Test.

Broad was criticised for deciding not to walk after edging Ashton Agar to slip via keeper Brad Haddin's gloves.

“I hope the Australian public give it to him right from the word go for the whole [Australian] summer,” he said.

Nice to see that Lehman has moved on from what happened in the first test . . . . . 

It’s pretty sad that Australia have been reduced to this, because all this does is highlight just how poor they are at this moment in time and just how much of a shadow they are of their former glories.

We all know Broad clearly edged it and should have gone, but it’s over and he’s been criticised for it pretty conclusively, so I think Lehman and co should get over it and focus on making sure Australia don’t leave an Ashes series without winning a test match for the first time since 1977, just thought I’d slip that in there.

On a more serious note it bodes well for the series in Australia for England if all the Aussies are focusing on is making Broad cry.


We’re guaranteed to win if that’s the case, in fact even if it isn’t I’d be surprised if we didn’t win given that we’re 3-0 up in this series without playing our best.
