“If anybody requested me the place the most effective place is to play I all the time say Lord’s. The crowd is nice, significantly the members are nice, and among the stuff that was popping out of the members’ mouths is admittedly disappointing and I wasn’t simply going stand by and cop it. So I simply talked to some of them.

“A few of them were throwing out some pretty big allegations and I just called them up on it and they kept going, and I was like, well, this is your membership here. So I’m just pointing them out. But it’s pretty disrespectful, to be honest. I just expect a lot better from the members.” PTI APA AT AT
