Travis Head abused Siraj "FUCK YOU" on camera and then LIED that he said
"Well bowled".

WHY do White players LIE ON THE FLY?

Same shit with James Anderson who LIED that he DIDN'T PUSH Jadeja during
the break a few years ago, despite being caught on the camera.

the dayrCOs play. rCLIrCOm slightly disappointed with how that transpired, with a couple of the past innings. It is what it is. If they want to
react like that and thatrCOs how they want to represent themselves, then
so be it.rCY

It ignites your passion. When I got him out, I celebrated but he abused
me,rCY said Siraj.

rCLItrCOs a lie that he said rCywell bowledrCO to me.
rCLWe donrCOt disrespect anyone. I respect every cricketer. Cricket is a gentlemanrCOs game but the way acted after getting out was uncalled for,rCY
he said.

rCLyou did Siraj was right. He will remember that ball for a long while.
And He definitely didnrCOt say rCLWell bowledrCY! Whole Australia also must have watched.

rCLYou did right. He (Travis Head) never said rCywell bowled.rCO Australians donrCOt say this to anyone. I have had my fair shares of battles with them
in the past.

but he was the one who started the conversation. In the press
conference, he lied that he said rCywell bowled.rCO You can go and check the highlights again.
