Lango's Day 4 Photos

The only photos Lango could capture before Cricket Australia told him to stop snapping. The 200-400 telephoto lens is banned unless you are an acredited professional photographer. Despite working out a compomise with helpful SCG staff, I lost interest after the reprimand ...

... and we wonder why our team's fortunes are flagging. Just another example of CA overbearing interference and James Sutherland's need to control everything.

Great photos mate, they look brilliant. Sad how when CA need supporters more than ever when the Aus side looks so bad they alienate people instead by unnecessary and greedy officialdom.

They certainly are top shots Lango. I completely concur with Lefty, CA are loosing the point of what cricket is and needs to be- an accessible game to the people. LONG LIVE THE HOI POLLOI!

Quotable Quotes

Daniel Brettig on Marnus Labuschagne 24/11/19
"There were probably times where it was a bit of a dream. We just fought, dug in and played a brand the Australian cricket team wants to play." Tim Paine 11/10/18
"I've worked my backside off for the last 10 years of first-class cricket, day in, day out. People think because of my relaxed nature ... that I've been gifted to be able to get to where I am, but it's not the case at all." Usman Khawaja 11/10/18

"Alastair has been the rock of England's batting for the last 12 years since he made his debut and while we are all sad to see him retire, we must rejoice in what he has done for our country," Graham Gooch (4/9/18)
"That's my opinion: we've either got to say, 'it's all out there, warts and all', or put out what he recommended we should do going forward, because to me, that's the key. It's about what we can do in the future to make the game better, not necessarily what we've done wrong in the past." Mark Taylor, talking about the review of Australian cricket culture. (2/9/18)
