Bit weird to give a guy who made 141 that kind of send off. Sure, if he got him cheaply, and Khawaja had been giving him shit, I could see it, but it's honestly just pathetic. Especially the whining about Ricky Ponting for some reason.
Given Robinson's uh... history, it wouldn't surprise me if Ussie's background had more to do with it than anything, even if subconsciously.

Much a do about nothing for me the Robinson sledge.
The Aussie have been masters at similar send offs to opposing batsmen.
Siddle, Johnson, Starc and many other over the years so would be very precious IMO if the Aussie Dressing Room were upset about that.
Now what is bloody embarrassing is the *ing carry of “ Cirque du Soleil” proportions, by Warner every time he gets a century….. it’s just
cringeworthy.

I heard his family tree is a cactus.

So Davey has upset you once in the past 3.5 years?

Davey and his lack of any grace and humility in life in general upsets me regularly.
As for his batting prowess the last 3.5 years ….. ironically it’s the lack thereof that has upset me more.

And that’s a very good and valid point.
But it’s for the match referee and the ICC to address what if any reaction is forthcoming.
More point was more the hypocrisy of the notion that the Australian Dressing Room should have issue with the send off.
History has sadly shown that the ICC has rarely come down hard on these sort of antics the last 15 years and had it been addressed expediently when it first arose, it would have never descended into the mess it has become.
Referring of the game unsportsmanlike antics has been shallow and ineffective for years.
Makes it all the sweeter 'if' we beat them! He certainly carries on like a pork chop - bazball, pffft.
Not so much the hypocrisy of the dressing room, they will have marked it down.
My point was on the press.
If Warner gave Root a send off like that, the Aussies would get crucified.

Who the feck is this idiot standing next to Aaron Finch?
He constantly says the exact opposite of what he is trying to say but seems completely unaware he has said it.
I reckon he has done it a dozen times.

Stephen O'Keeffe?
Most dont seem to have a big issues with the send off, bit OTT in context, the doubling down is dumb but on brand for the skin suit who dolled it out.
So it is, didnt recognise him but now you say it...
**** he is dumb.
Both these umpires a healthy looking fkrs!
Bummer
Wish they'd shown the track on the ball after the review.
