Is whiskey or rum the true spirit of cricket? Discuss
Beer is currently off the table. These and other important points, including Bairstow's narcolepsy and Carey's war crimes, are up for debate

- He's Australian, and they are known cheats, and historically, sheep thieves
- He threw the ball underarm (smoking gun)
- Bairstow tapped his back leg inside the crease to indicate that he believed the ball to be dead, and who is Carey to argue?
- England, the reigning ODI World champions, would never accept victory on a technicality
- Just look at his face
- He's English, and they are known to act like the high and mighty moral arbiters of all that is moral, and also of what is arbitrary
- He tapped his back leg in the crease before the umpires called an over. Does he think he's better than them?
- Carey throwing the ball at the stumps is a normal thing that keepers do, which Bairstow should know, because he tried to get Marnus Labuschagne out the same way earlier in the match
- Carey's actions abided by the rules of play and did not cross "the line", which is not just an Australian way of talking about the spirit of cricket wow don't be dumb
- Just look at his face
- No, you woke girlygirl. These are the only options.
- You all make amazing points and should make them as strongly as possible going forward
- It's perfectly normal for grown men to have meltdowns of this magnitude in public
- Please keep going
- Absolutely
- The spirit of cricket should be arrack, not rum, whiskey, or other contenders
- Arrack is great with ginger beer or ginger ale, and other soft drinks
- Also just great on ice
- Tends not to give you a hangover
- It would look out of place in this particular column if not.
- Let's hope the readers buy the conceit
- Robinson has paid his dues
- He took his suspended period to introspect deep inside himself
- Deep inside himself he found stuff that he wants to loudly yell, which in regular society would count as abject abuse but for fast bowlers doesn't
- He said it to a brown Muslim player
- He also did it to white players, even if not as intensely
- It was incidental that Khawaja is both brown and Muslim
- It is incidental that Robinson said racist stuff in the past, and that as a non-white person, you may never trust his intentions
- Well, Robinson can't be blamed if Khawaja batted longer than anyone else and caused him more frustration, can he?
- Don't be stupid
