Jos Buttler's dismissal
What are your thoughts?
I think Sri Lanka were perfectly within their right to do what they did. The fact they warned him twice for leaving his crease before the ball was bowled was sporting behaviour in my view and if he then continues to ignore them he deserves to be run out whilst backing up.
Had they done it without warning that would be unsporting but that wasn't the case. Cook doesn't have a valid argument so all his fuss and whinging is pathetic. Blame Buttler he is the stupid one for continuing to leave his crease before the ball is bowled having been warned by the bowler he will run him out if he continues to do it.
The England players are as thick as two short planks with the decisions they made in that last game. They need to smarten up a bit.

Couldnt agree more.
Every time I back up that much myself I know full well what the risks are, and for him to make zero effort to hurry back to the crease during his warnings is just plain lazy.

Spot on
He had been warned so fair game after that, I don't think he will do it again !!
I used to play a lot of indoor cricket when it was really popular and getting out jumping the crease happened nearly every over !
It's about time we faced up to being **** again, won't be long before flintoff is back in the side...... Lol
