what about Michael Clarke out end of the day 2nd test and he knew he hit it and was exposed by the referral to prove clearly he did and he had to apologise for not walking.
As for Hughes if England had appealed for it to be out and got away with it the Australians would be ramming it at them for being bloody cheats..it happened in 1997 when Nasser Hussein took an inconclusive catch in the slips which meant one of the aussies was dismissed
You would have to be a complete fuckwit to call hughes a cheat for this! He has no idea if he had caught it or not. And Ian Bell can suck it coz he quite obviously nicked one on 40 something and went on to make a hundred.
Have you not been watching Australia lately? E.G. RICKY PONTING NEVER WALKS i remember seeing footage of Ricky edging one to 1st slip against India and he didn't even walk
its funny how all the dumb english fans are not commenting on this video saying hughes cheated after prior the fucking faggot did something 1000000 times worse and actually CHEATED were as hughes didnt so fuck all you gay poms!
@weststigersftwz where did attempting to cheat get you...3-1 in your own backyard!! ricky ponting, please come back to england for next series, you shitter!!!
@BareSuspect mhm you do have the urn and u played much better than us. But remind me who dominated world cricket for at least 10 years? who has greats such as Adam Gilchrist, Shane Warne, Glenn McGrath and the greatest batsmen of all time Sir Donald Bradman? so shut the fuck you up you stupid cheating pom and go suck a dick. Wow u won an ashes series 3-1 ur soooo madd, 2007 Australia won fucking 5_0!!! suck on that dip shit!!!! fuck you and all pomss!!!! cheating shits!!!!
HEY ALL YOU DUMB POMMY ENGLISH FUCKS! DID YOU ALL SEE YOUR STUPID GAY WICKETKEEPER MATT PRIOR, CHEAT! FUCK ALL YOU WHO ARE SAYING PHILL HUGHES A CHEAT, MATT PRIOR DID SOMETHING 100 TIMES WORSE! WHERE THE FUCK IS IAN BOTHOM NOW THAT COWARDLY PRICK HUH? YOU POMS ARE THE CHEATS AND IAN BOTHOM IS A STUPID ENGLISH FUCK!!! AUSSIES RULE THIS LAND BROTHER!!!!
Matt Prior just took things to another level with the worst cheating all summer. Hughes catch was nothing compared to this. Hughes clearly was not comfortable claiming the catch, whereas Prior was cheering and running down to the bowler. A very different class altogether when he clearly knocked the stumps and pointed at them claiming Johnsons was bowled. Go fuck yourself Botham.
Hey Ian botham, did you see Matt Prior knock the bails off and claim that Mitchell Johnson was bowled? Did you call him a cheat? You didn't? Lol didn't think so you hypocritical pommy fuckwit.
Not a cheat. The poms are hypocrites. Strauss 'caught' hughes at Cardiff in 2009 Ashes. Hughes got the umpires to review it. The right decision was made. Strauss claimed a bounce catch and the wrong decision was made. If anyone is a cheat. It's Strauss
I wonder if botham will call collingwood a cheat? last nite in the 20/20 he middled the ball of the edge and stood there and shaking his head when umpire gave him out. and on reply the ball rolled right up the bat. i guess ian botham wont say nothing because his a pom.
What are you on about you moron he waited for the decision to be confirmed he never claimed he wasn't out, more whinging because you got beat AGAIN!!!!!! all together now
@Ripppped im not whingin kid u obviously didnt watch it did you. he complained bad. and on reply he middled it. i guess ian wont say he is trying to cheat because his a pom. and im glad england finally won they wont win a world cup tho aus has never been good at 20/20 england play alot of 20/20 aus are better at 50 overs.
@Ripppped also ian didnt bring up the real cheating through 2005 was a bad cheating display just go read marcus trosthic book where he admits england cheated that series using mints to rub over the ball to cause swing which is illegal ball tampering.
@n1ck822 Oh dear nice to see you are desperate to find something to help heal your wounds
type 'Aussie Ball Tampering' into Google you'll find dozens of instances one including the whole
Victoria team you know what they say about people who live in glass houses ........ enough said I have to go I'm still counting my winnings from the Aussie mugs who keep
@Ripppped u really are a tool just type in mike atherton ball tampering england have been doing it for good 20 years or more and still couldnt win in them days.
@Ripppped england win 1 series in 24 yrs in aus and think there all that heh thats a joke. oh well thats poms for you 3 times bigger country then aus and took 24 yrs to win at the sport they invented pretty bad if you ask me.
@n1ck822 You are desperate look at the full ashes history and stop clutching at straws, I'll type it in slowly as you seem a bit thick 66 ashes series in total, England won or retained the ashes 34 times recent history last 4 series England won or retained 3 out of the last 4, If you want to bet on your losers to win today get onto Betfair I'll lay you whatever you want I am so far in profit I'm thinking of taking a nice holiday with all the Aussie money I've won
@Ripppped u seem a little slow eng didnt win from 1987 to 2005 and 2005 eng cheated so really that series shouldnt count then england talked it up and got murdered 2007 5 nil then england win the last 2, but i know ur english u like to get ahead of your self. england has won 1 icc title pretty bad and it from 20/20 aus has won 4 world cups 50 overs, england 0.
@Ripppped and who do u think has won more ashes series ;) and england invented the sport heh and aus is 22 mil and england is 70 mil population and england have access to ireland wales scotish players ;)
@Ripppped and if you knew anything about betfair its not aus money betfair is uk company tool. and u wouldnt have won much either england has only won 4 matches and aus won 2 matches. and 1 draw. and england was favourites for the test so even if u bet on england u wouldnt have got much back ;)
OH dear the poor old Aussie cheats grasping at every excuse possible, you have to laugh at them the poor 2nd rate losers. 5th in the world and sinking fast
Andrew Strauss another example of cheating then? What about Cardiff 2009? If Hughes is cheating, where the correct decision was made, then I don't know what to call Strauss...
FUCK ALL THE ENGLISH PEOPLE IN THE WORLD THERE ALL GAY FAGGOTS AND AUSTRALIA WILL ALWAYS BE A BETTER COUNTRY WITH BETTER PEOPLE! WE WILL ALWAYS OWN YOU AT EVERYTHING SO STOP TRYING ENGLISH!
If Bell nicked it why did he refer it then because it would have showed up? In Hughes case you can tell from his reaction that he ain't caught it otherwise if he had I'm sure he would thrown the ball in the air and celebrated straight away for getting cook out on 99. Another thing if Bell didn't walk for 'nicking it' then why didn't Michael Clarke walk in the second test when the ball CLEARLY came off the splice of his bat which was then successfully referred?
and you dont say anything about ian bell, if anything he cheated, you could tell by the look on his face straight away that he was out but since he had 2 referals left he decided to challenge and see if technology could save him which it did. Thats cheating you dumb asssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss! peace brother!
@tommyd2nd4th Because they had an extra referral to waste, and he was on his way to a god score. When your positive you're not out, you refer it straight away, but Ian Bell waited around for 2 minutes before he realized that the nick was soo faint that he might be able to get away with it.
@FarQ24 There's a reason Hot Spot is used over snicko mate. A compression of airwaves can make a faint sound which I presume Bell thought he heard but since he felt nothing, he was unsure if he was out or not. He reffered it and the best technology showed he was not out. What would you do? Think "There may have been a faint sound that may have been the ball touching the edge of my bat, I'll walk" or check it over, find out your not out and then go and win the ashes?
@fuhhhhQue The Matt Prior one was cheating yes, and to all you Aussies, can I just clarify that I don't think there's any Englishman that claims Matt Prior wasn't cheating (including Botham!). That was a one off heat of the moment incident by one player, not the whole country. I'm glad you agree Bell wasn't but we'll have to agree to disagree on the Phil Hughes one, on this planet, if the ball goes into your hands a few inches off the ground moving upwards then you cannot think you've caught it.
I'm as proud as any Aussie, and can understand the pommies whinging- It didn't look good at all... Still, they'd be whinging about something else if it wasn't this:) :)
@liampw20 because I'm Aussie you silly squashed nose, hugh grant sucking weak piece of crap. Must have had your head smashed up against the bedhead too many times...
@Eldainos oh dear, someone has misunderstood me. I hate Hugh Grant, you cant prove I'm weak, and I have never had a bed head on my bed, so its fair to say I just shot you down in flames. p.s hows that Welsh P.M of yours getting on you poor poor man
England won the 2005 series by applying an artificial substance to the ball. They knew it would make the ball reverse (from experiences in county cricket). That was a premeditated act of ball tampering. The English should not call anyone cheats when they have that shameful act in their cricketing history.
@forevertold England applied their spit to the ball, nutjob. The fact they had sweets which affected their saliva was nothing to do with it. Stop being a butthurt loser; Aussies are renowned for cheating so much more than everyone else except for Pakistanis.
If you guys are calling Phil Hughes a cheat for this, then I can comfortably call Ian Bell a "pommy cheat" for not walking when he clearly knew he nicked it straight through to the keeper.
@FarQ24 As I recall, Ian Bell wasn't sure himself, he was asking matt prior if he thought he had hit it. Sometimes you have no idea if you have hit it or not, let's not forget when india toured australia, and the amount of bad decisions that were given, ricky ponting basically thick inside edging it to the keeper and not walking. Australians have no right to complain about anything.
@FarQ24 No you can't - because this was quite slow, and it clearly bounced, and you can tell from the very first reaction he had that he knew it had bounced ...
@FarQ24 Its the umpire's decision whether a batsman is out for a nick. If the umpire doesn't hear it, thats not the batsman's fault. Clarke didn't walk at Adelaide did he? His nick was a lot more obvious. Claiming a catch however, if the batsman doesn't notice it's a lie, is definitely cheating, as disputing a catch is the batsman's prerogative.
Your a fucking idiot, straight away he wasn't sure if it carried or not you can tell, even the fucking comentators were saying that dumb english fuck, he only celebrated because the others around him that didnt see it celebrated. Fucking dumb pom shit go drink some warm beer u fucking dick even your shitty english commentators knew that hughes wasnt sure you dumb pom
Phil Hughes is not a cheat. The day before this incident was the day of the funeral for Phil's Hughes's Godfather... so obviously Phil's mind wasn't 100% focussed on the cricket. Anyone can make mistakes.
Phillip Hughes would've been able to tell by the angle the ball hit his palms, that it was a bump ball. Had it carried, he would've caught it with his fingers, but it looks to have hit his palms.
I'd be reluctant to call him a cheat though. Maybe just over-exuberant.
Hey Max, you are obviously a Saint of the highest order who has never made a mistake! No one is perfect so if you are so saintly and angelic you should have some graciousness and get off Phil Hughes's back. The audio picked up Bell hitting the ball so he should have walked of the field if he had a conscience and should never have made 100 runs. So who is calling Bell a cheat? Get real, Max!
Give Hughes a break!!! He is not a cheat. The replays clearly show that he was uncertain of whether he took the catch. The English commentators even said so.
Its funny how quickly everyone forgets about Andrew Strauss' catch a couple of years ago that he claimed that had bounced just in front of him and yesterday with Bell's edge when he was on 60 odd that he probably should have walked. Don't criticize Australia being unsportsmanlike because look how bad other teams are...
@AZZ991 Strauss' catch didn't bounce, there wasn't even a question of it bouncing. The issue there was whether the ball was in contact with the ground as he caught it in his fingers.
The difference is that to Strauss it would have felt like the ball had carried, but in Hughes case, the ball was going up from the ground when he caught it. So he has nowhere near a case to suggest that he didn't know whether it had carried.
Technology in Cricket - Video Referral for Catches <-- type that into youtube search and watch the first video and see how the English cricketers reacted when the shoe was on the other foot.
@phzzt didn't bounce into his hands did it. That one is debatable. Phil The Cheat Hughes' last night was blatant cheating, it took a clear bounce into his hands. For Clarke to say "Oh Phil is no cheat, he told us he wasn't sure", as though that shows how honest he is, is laughable. "Not sure"??! LMAO! It bounced into his hands. Anyway it doesn't matter whether Hughes is a cheat or not, he's still fucking shit and you're still getting fucking hammered.
@ShaggyAlonso13 Neither are debatable, both were clearly not out. When the ball bounces into the hands at the fingertips it is very difficult to tell. Yes, we are being hammered. Very disappointing performance by all our sporting codes of late.
@mutzigmorzine Top line athletes from every country are unsporting. They all play the game to the limit of what is acceptable in order to win, this is whether it is American's using drugs to win 100m sprints, Pakistani cricketers tampering with the ball to gain reverse swing, New Zealand's rugby captain playing the ref in every match or the Australian cricketers with their constant sledging and bullying behaviour..
@elgraw That's bollock, mate. He knew he hadn't caught it. This is the first step on the road to someone playing a cover drive 50 yards along the ground to the boundary and the boy on the boundary picking it up, throwing it up in the air and celebrating a catch with the bowler.
@PaleGreySky you clown , the boundary ropes , what about 70-80m away its abit more obvious then someone about 1-1.5m away . clearly you have a good intelligent brain pahaha
@Ripppped Do you even know how fast thats going. If you watched it you would of saw that he stopped appealing halfway thorough. And why the hell are you calling us cheats look at ian bell mate.

Phil Hughes is not a cheat. The day before this incident was the day of the funeral for Phil's Hughes's Godfather... so obviously Phil's mind wasn't 100% focussed on the cricket. Anyone can make mistakes.

Phillip Hughes would've been able to tell by the angle the ball hit his palms, that it was a bump ball. Had it carried, he would've caught it with his fingers, but it looks to have hit his palms.
I'd be reluctant to call him a cheat though. Maybe just over-exuberant.

Hey Max, you are obviously a Saint of the highest order who has never made a mistake! No one is perfect so if you are so saintly and angelic you should have some graciousness and get off Phil Hughes's back. The audio picked up Bell hitting the ball so he should have walked of the field if he had a conscience and should never have made 100 runs. So who is calling Bell a cheat? Get real, Max!

Give Hughes a break!!! He is not a cheat. The replays clearly show that he was uncertain of whether he took the catch. The English commentators even said so.
Its funny how quickly everyone forgets about Andrew Strauss' catch a couple of years ago that he claimed that had bounced just in front of him and yesterday with Bell's edge when he was on 60 odd that he probably should have walked. Don't criticize Australia being unsportsmanlike because look how bad other teams are...

@AZZ991 Strauss' catch didn't bounce, there wasn't even a question of it bouncing. The issue there was whether the ball was in contact with the ground as he caught it in his fingers.
The difference is that to Strauss it would have felt like the ball had carried, but in Hughes case, the ball was going up from the ground when he caught it. So he has nowhere near a case to suggest that he didn't know whether it had carried.

Technology in Cricket - Video Referral for Catches <-- type that into youtube search and watch the first video and see how the English cricketers reacted when the shoe was on the other foot.

@phzzt didn't bounce into his hands did it. That one is debatable. Phil The Cheat Hughes' last night was blatant cheating, it took a clear bounce into his hands. For Clarke to say "Oh Phil is no cheat, he told us he wasn't sure", as though that shows how honest he is, is laughable. "Not sure"??! LMAO! It bounced into his hands. Anyway it doesn't matter whether Hughes is a cheat or not, he's still fucking shit and you're still getting fucking hammered.

@ShaggyAlonso13 Neither are debatable, both were clearly not out. When the ball bounces into the hands at the fingertips it is very difficult to tell. Yes, we are being hammered. Very disappointing performance by all our sporting codes of late.

@phzzt Don't even try and put the two sides in the same boat, Australia are famous for being unsporting.

@mutzigmorzine Top line athletes from every country are unsporting. They all play the game to the limit of what is acceptable in order to win, this is whether it is American's using drugs to win 100m sprints, Pakistani cricketers tampering with the ball to gain reverse swing, New Zealand's rugby captain playing the ref in every match or the Australian cricketers with their constant sledging and bullying behaviour..

@phzzt There are different degrees of cheating though. I agree though, everyone does it to an extent.

Listen to what they said "Persuaded by those around him". Bit like Amir being persuaded by his captain to match fix.

Typical Aussie Cheats trying to win at all costs no matter what it takes.
Absolutely disgraceful and Shane Warne should hold his head in shame for trying to make excuses for Hughes.
You dont jump up whith your hands in the air as Hughes did if you aren't appealing do you Shane ?
COME ON ENGLAND !!!! finish the cheats off

@Ripppped when huges' caught it , its instincs to jump in th air he thought he just caught cook on 99 !
if you caught cook on 99 , would th first thing that pops into your head be "oh it hit my palms" wtf , what normal human would be thinking that ?

@elgraw That's bollock, mate. He knew he hadn't caught it. This is the first step on the road to someone playing a cover drive 50 yards along the ground to the boundary and the boy on the boundary picking it up, throwing it up in the air and celebrating a catch with the bowler.
