If a ball is deflected of your bat, pads or your body, you don't run, but that is convention and NOT a rule.
Do Aussies follow conventions, if yes, why do they wait for umpire's call, after edging a ball? Why do they sledge to get batsmen out? (Oh that could be a convention)
FaF du plessis was right, they're a pack of wild dogs, sore losers, devoid of any sportive spirit..

sorry if truth hurts cant help it, why is it these whiners cry every where they go and its fo ols like urll who waste all ur time watching them
It is matter of great concern and research to explore the reason why only Australian are getting involved in all sort of disputes with the players of all criketing nation. After Australia it is Pakistan and then England.
It is just dirty mind game and not rue sportsmanship.
In this recent dispute also it was proved that Warne was wrong as aver.
Australians you are again exposed. Have some Shame.
There is a real difficulty in expressing the feelings. Aussies don't know Hindi, for that matter many South Indians do not know Hindi well. Obviously Indians knowing English may not understand Aussie accent and slang. Further each language is adding new abuses in it's repertoire everyday. Cricketers may not find enough time to learn languages. As it is they do not seem to have enough time to acquire cricketing skills. Best solution under the circumstances seems to be to appoint a 'on-field interpreter & translator'. This will add one more dimension to the chatter game and expression of thoughts and feeling with each other will be very free. There is no need of tongue-in-check. Or how about wearable instant translation gizmo !!

Also each player be given a microphone. So that all viewers get to know what is happening on-field. Commentators can analyze players verbal skills and spectators can cheer, jeer and abuse while watching the game.
Kohli tried in rest series & we lost from position of win.Johnson just ripped apart our batting after his word of war with him in second inning of 1st test.Let us beat them on field than in game they are trained to play better.
You may be the world's best batsman but if your behaviour is not appropriate,you deserve stronger punishment.ICC should change its rules to redcard a player for the match and the next match also, in case of such indecent behaviour.
Rohit has every right to speak in his language no one can force or asked to speak in any other language. Who was he to ask him to speak in English?????? Every one has right to speak in their regional language then why not Rohit. He has done good thing Keep it up!!!!

There is nothing wrong in Rohit speaking in Hindi, had it been with the Indian Players or to himself. But if Rohit was trying to tell something to Warner and he used Hindi then it is plain indecency on his part. From what could be seen in TV, it appeared to be much more than just few words from both players. Warner was wrong too. Instead asking the umpire about the legitmacy of the run, asking the batsman directly was just silly.
Indians have a bad habit of speaking in their native language in front of foreigners. I see that everyday here in USA. During meetings withing company, they speak in Telegu or Hindi or Tamil whatever be their language in front of the Americans. That is considered very rude. When will they learn etiquette?

It is not bad etiquette. It is simply the comfort of being able to express their true feeling that often makes Indians talk in the native infront of foreigners. Why foriegners, it happens within different Indian language speaking as well. So I would say, it is simply the inability to express their true feeling spontaneously in a foreign language. So don't connect it with rudeness of bad etiquette. Japanese, Chinese, French, Italians too do it. I see no problem with that.

You didn't get my point. When in a meeting, you should not discuss meeting points with your colleagues in different langyage. Then everyone is staring at you trying to understand what you are saying.
