Warning ⚠️
White people should not eat at Indian Restaurants for a week, pending next Test at the SCG.

Get some curry into ya.

It shows the superiority of the British genes we have -

even though our population is only 27 million and
India has 1.4 billion people we still prevail in the cricket.

I can't believe (but am not surprised, at the same time) the Indians are claiming we cheated. The umpires aren't even Australians. All that Cummins did was request a review and the third umpire ruled against the Indian batsman and rightly so. End of story. Time to move on, India, and concentrate on the next game in Sydney on Friday.

Has the Australian cricket team been caught for cheating? Sure - we all saw the sandpaper incident. But in this game, the Australian team is blameless and can't seriously be accused of cheating. Any attempt to do so is just sour grapes.
