That's the difference between the two, Smith will cop it, probably hold back a tear but will let his bat do the talking, Warner will lose his shit as well as his concentration and proceed pick on the smallest bloke in the England team.

Personally I don't think we'll ever see Bancroft in a baggy green again, he'd get sledged to buggery and wouldn't handle it, he reminds me of the young dude from the Shawshank Redemption.
He obviously likes to sledge himself still. When Maxwell got out in BBL the other night, he said in interview it was Bancroft carrying on out there. You would think he would bite his tongue for a year at least before being a mouth out there!
Im fascinated to see how warner copes in england. Hes going to cop an unbelievable amount of stick and he doesnt cope well with that at the best of times. Smith will cop plenty but warner will get an absolute barrage from the english fans.

What do we think about the mankad?
Should a warning come before the attempt?
Looked to me that the batter wasn't trying to gain a massive advantage.

There's too much money involved now for warnings etc. They need a line in the sand and no grey areas, gone are the days of being a "good bloke" about it.
If you lunge forward to play a defensive shot up the other end and you're out of your crease and get stumped, you're gone, it's the same up the non-strikers end to some degree, just wait in your holding bay until the ball is bowled if you don't want any chance of being a victim.

I agree but only if the non striker is trying to gain advantage.
Like tearing off indoor cricket style.
Butler was just having a wander so ashwin should've warned him in my opinion.
