There have been a lot of sledging incidents in cricket history. From Sohail/parsad to smith/warne; and even some racist chants. Apart from these racist chants do you believe sledging should be allowed in cricket? it certainly makes things interesting, but also increases hatered.
once mcgrath asked sarwan in a game that how does lara’s **** tastes like? Sarwan replied “i dont know, may be you should ask your wife?” A fight almost happened.
akram before some world cup match against india said it would be a practice and ended up loosing it.
shane warne called murli a cheap wicket taker
Re: sledging in cricket
oh really ..did'nt know that was the reason of that altercation between Lara and Mcgrath...lol funny...Akram had that match fixed against India so don't worry about that.
I frankly think Australians are getting away with too much of sledging and ill-temepred behavior.I don't know if anybody took note of how Shane Warne,Gilchrist and Ponting behaved with Asad Rauf in a test match against south africa in Australia recently...they were getting in his face,asking him too many question and putting pressure on him as if he was an illiterate rickshaw driver ,yet no action was taken by the match referee.
If one of our Paki guys does something that he gets ban..like Izamam got banned against India in India.I think there is a double standard in the icc in how they treat white players as opposed to non-whites.

A 4-page sledging thread already in progress with very interesting opinions from the GupShup members.
