According to BBC Sport web site Warner attacked Joe Root a few hours after the game last Saturday. He has been dropped for todays game v New Zealand while investigation goes on.

No choice but to send him home to Australia in disgrace - the Aussies really are a mess on and off the pitch.

Aussies 50 - 2 12.2

Wade 19 (40)

For interest in previous ICC trophy clashes between these 2 it's 4 - 0 to Aussies. Time for a change!

[ADVILLAFAN]

Very brave of Warner, picking on Joe Root who is built like a 12 year old.

Pretty much as I see it. I wonder when the "recall Warnie" campaign will start?

They will probably start the campaign for the return of Ricky first!!!

[ADVILLAFAN]

New Zealand set a target of 244 to beat Australia.

Australia were 243/8

He has said he 'open' minded if he was asked.If they lose the first 2 tests I can see it happening.

Happened in Walkabout bar on Broad Street at 2am.  My main question about the incident is why were international sports stars out on Broad Street?

[Ron Manager]

Went down today. If it wasnt for the numerous school parties there would have been a very low crowd indeed.

Shocked to find the price of a pint was £4!

Impressed with George Bailey he looked the part.
