7PM: AUSTRALIA BLASTS FALSE CAREY RUMOUR
By Ben Horne


The Australian cricket team has slammed a story pushed by former England captain Alastair Cook suggesting Alex Carey walked out of a UK hairdresser without paying.

Leeds barber Adam Mahmood told The Sun newspaper that the Australian wicketkeeper had left his cash only hairdresser without paying and that he had given Carey a deadline of Monday to pay back the $57 Australian dollars.

Cricket Australia has categorically denied Carey has even had a haircut or visited a barber since the team was in Chelsea in London.

Teammates including Steve Smith, who was with Carey at the time, verified that Carey had not visited a barber.

It’s understood a different Australian squad

member had visited a local barber who paid for a haircut by international transfer immediately, having walked into the barber not knowing it was cash only.

The squad member has the receipt which they will take to the barber today to clear up any misunderstanding.

Sir Alastair Cook took to BBC radio and said he had his hair cut at the same Leeds hairdresser and repeated the false story on air without checking with the Australian team.

“He says ‘one of them, I think Alex is his name’. I said ‘Alex Carey, wicketkeeper?’” Cook said on radio.

“He says ‘he hasn’t paid.’ It was one of those cash only barbers and he promised him he would do a transfer later on in the day.”
Cook said told fellow commentators: “True story. He might have paid by now.”



Only problem is the story wasn’t true and Carey was wrongly accused.

It continues the circus that has followed the Australian team and Carey since the controversial dismissal of Jonny Bairstow in the Leeds Test match.

So yet again…here‘s a chance for them and Cook to uphold the English morales and spirit of cricket and say my bad l stuffed up…..Bwahaha😂 l think it’s a snowballs chance in summer of happening….typical English.
 
Cooks rant is bonkers ….always thought he was a bit fried in between the ears.
are we really making up a hair cut story… …gosh they are getting desperate
it’s getting beyond sad …. giantroo on the pulse again……it will be 30 minutes before the English mob pick up on it ….slackers.
meanwhile here’s a beauty to help with their upholding of spirit of cricket garbage.

I used to think the AFL had the worst governance regime in world sport, but - silly me - I'd forgotten the ICC.

Here's a current international match day official ridiculing a contemporary player, on behalf of another player, who - wait for it - just happens to be said official's son.

You can't make this stuff up

 
🤔 hmmmm what’s the likelihood of broad, Robinson, Stokesy or some muppet of a fan coming out and demanding that Australia play fair and declare in the spirit of cricket of course, if today’s session is washed out…
You know to uphold the moral good of the game…




🤣🤣🤣
