Chappell hits out at Lehmann claim
Print Edition
Ex-captain Ian Chappell has accused Australia coach Darren Lehmann of hypocrisy in attacking England’s Stuart Broad for “blatant cheating” during this season’s first Ashes Test.
Lehmann’s comments in an Australian radio interview saw him fined 20 percent of his match fee in the ongoing fifth and final Ashes test at The Oval. The 27-year-old Broad angered Australia during England’s narrow 14-run first test win at Trent Bridge when he refused to walk after a thick edge deflected off the wicketkeeper’s gloves to slip. Victory sent England on its way to taking an unbeatable 3-0 series lead. Chappell said Australians, who have traditionally always waited for the umpire’s decision, were in no position to complain about opponents who did exactly the same thing. “I don’t like to be called a cheat and basically he (Lehmann) is calling all people who don’t walk a cheat, which would include himself,” Chappell told BBC Radio Five yesterday.
