Good to see that I am not the only person who thinks that, however the worst sportsmanship gong in my opinion, goes to the Australian Ashes team of 2005. I have never supported the Australian cricket team since that series.

I played cricket for a number of years and it was never my style to sledge and show poor sportsmanship.
I was generally the opposite of that.

We came up occasionally against opponents where they were doing similar to what the current Australian team is doing. It took a lot of the fun of the sport out of it.

The more people speak out against it is the only way to get change. The sad part is, as a spectator I do find it entertaining to see them behave like they do. And I suspect many others do too.
