Paine unleashed an expletive-filled rant at umpire Paul Wilson over the Decision Review System, asking for some “consistency,” the report added.

Paine was angered after Pujara survived a bat-pad review on 13, with no evidence he’d edged the ball. With Nathan Lyon searching for his first wicket of the Sydney test, Paine immediately sent the not-out call to the third umpire after Matthew Wade’s catch was turned down.

Legside hotspot replays were blocked by Wade’s body, while the “ultraedge” which indicates the ball hit the bat, showed very small movement as the ball went past the bat.

Third umpire Bruce Oxenford looked at the offside hotspot and didn’t see a mark as the inside edge of the bat turned, before sticking with the not-out call, prompting a verbal barrage from Paine.

This is not the first time Paine has shown his reservations against the DRS. Paine was given out, caught behind off Ravindra Jadeja on the third day. He was ruled out after the on-field call by Paul Reiffel was overturned by third umpire Paul Wilson. The wicketkeeper-batsman didn't hide his disappointment over the decision while leaving the field.

"I did not hit the ball in the second innings, it was pretty clear from my reaction, yeah I thought we had a pretty same example on day two with Pujara, it sets a precedent," Paine had said.

"He did not look at enough replays to see that there was a gap between the bat and ball, the line itself had started before it passed my bat and then it finished again so it was just a lot of things that did not add up for me, I don't think he took the time to look at the evidence, technology was okay for me," he added.

India, meanwhile, reached 180 for four at Lunch on Day 3. Cheteshwar Pujara found it difficult to keep the scoreboard ticking during an extended first session as he crawled to 42 off 144 balls.

Skipper Ajinkya Rahane managed 22 off 70 balls before being played on by an off-cutter from Pat Cummins, while Hanuma Vihari (4, 38 balls), who has been in terrible form, was needlessly run out when he went for a quick but non-existent single.

It was Pant (29 batting, 45 balls), who showed some intent and tried to release the pressure created by Pujara's negative approach.

Paine fined for breaching ICC Code of Conduct

Australia captain Tim Paine has been fined 15 per cent of his match fee for breaching Level 1 of the ICC Code of Conduct during the third day of the third Test against India in Sydney.
Australia captain Tim Paine has been fined 15 per cent of his match fee for breaching Level 1 of the ICC Code of Conduct during the third day of the third Test against India in Sydney.

Paine was found to have breached Article 2.8 of the ICC Code of Conduct for Players and Player Support Personnel, which relates to “showing dissent at an umpire’s decision during an International Match.”

In addition to this, one demerit point has been added to the disciplinary record of Paine, for whom it was the first offence in a 24-month period.

The incident occurred in the 56th over of India’s first innings on Saturday when Paine criticized the umpire’s decision following an unsuccessful DRS review against Cheteshwar Pujara.

Paine admitted the offence and accepted the sanction proposed by David Boon of the Emirates ICC Elite Panel of Match Referees and ratified by the ICC Cricket Operations department as per the COVID-19 interim playing regulations. There was no need for a formal hearing.

On-field umpires Paul Reiffel and Paul Wilson, third umpire Bruce Oxenford and fourth official Claire Polosak levelled the charge.

Level 1 breaches carry a minimum penalty of an official reprimand, a maximum penalty of 50 per cent of a player’s match fee, and one or two demerit points.

This is the Australia I like and this is the Australian team that I would like Indians to beat. Cricket has gone too soft and it's about time Aussies play like the team of the 90's.

LOL, it had to take India to bring out the typical Aussie flavour.
 
Tim Paine said he set up a poor example with the use of his language. He's disappointed with himself and needed to set better example as he knew the stump mics were on and kids were watching around the globe

I am not a big fan of personal abuse in the name of sledging. Imagine Ashwin replying to Paine in the English version of Punjabi/Hindi/Urdu pleasantries said in a typical India-Pakistan match. Sarwan said a milder version of that to Mcgrath and all hell broke lose.

Well they cant drop their goodie two shoes image when they are playing other Asian sides bringing teenage fast bowlers and looking defeated even before the game has begun. They flatten such sides without ever opening their mouths. India are really pushing them to the limit.

They dont sledge Kohli a lot, funnily enough. I dont mind them sledging though. They were clearly desperate to win this test and didnt mind crossing the line a few times today. We can expect more of it at the Gabba . In fact, Paine ended up distracting himself and dropped a catch. I really hope we get under their bowlers'skins as well in the next match.

Paine dropped 3 catches, not one!

As for their bowlers, Hazlewood & Cummins look poetry in motion while bowling, have to be unsettled. Pity Kohli is missing.

Lyon has largely been innocuous this entire series and Ashwin has settled the debate who the better spinner is!

I meant he dropped a catch the very next over after ashwin got under his skin. Sledging is supposed to distract the batsman. Paine scored an own goal and himself got distracted and dropped a catch just after that
. Sledging fail.

I posted here that all this elite honesty drama will end with this test as aussies were under the pump.

Thats true. You need to walk the talk, more so if you are the captain. He is one of major reasons why Australia couldn't win this test.

If he has got any shame left, he should come off abusing fellow players and officials. Ideally, ICC should've dealt with him more strictly for his utterances!

Remember Mike Denness banning Ganguly for Centurion test for what, failing to control his players?

Yeah I think he was slightly rattled by Ashwin's response.

It was weird to see him talking about Brisbane when the SCG one was hardly done with. If anything, this only betrayed the Aussies' mentality and that they had given up already.

I have never seen Aussies under the pump like this ever by another team in Australia.

Yep. Those days ICC were so biased against teams that weren't England or Australia it was shocking. Literally no other team tampered the ball more than England in the 2000's and not a word was raised against Stuart Broad for using his spikes etc. with daddy saving him as the match referee. Thankfully, noe that BCCI has a lot more power, we don't get discriminated as much.
 
Paine's had the worst day of his career today.

If he drops any more catches at Brisbane, regardless of the series result, I don't expect him to retain his place in the test side. A sudden loss of form can creep up on a keeper, just as it did with Ian Healy and Adam Gilchrist.
 
I love a bit of flair, banter and hard play. Paine's trash talk, however, was an embarrassment and he ended up losing concentration and costing his team a likely win. It wasn't even funny or creative - he was just mouthing off trash.

I still think we are not ruthless enough despite all the power BCCI has at its disposal a la colonial days of ECB & CA. It would have been unthinkable during those days for English & Australian players getting racially abused while our players still get racially abused.
 
Poor batsman, average keeper, average captain, got owned in battle of sledging and bottled a dolly.

India is about to end Tim ‘mediocre’ Paine’s career, and Ashwin was right when he told he that he will not survive a tour of India.

This guy was all set to retire from cricket and work for Kookaburra before the sandpaper-gate happened.

He is basically the Misbah of Australia, except that Misbah was a very good cricketer. This guy epitomes mediocrity.
 
I loved how the sledging and talking died immediately after Ashwin's strong reply and the subsequent drop.
 
I don’t think Paine will ever be coming to India with the team in future. He’s welcome to visit India as a tourist though. Goan, Kerala, Rajasthan, Kutch are nice in winter! Ashwin can point him to some nice beaches! Pant can suggest some dreamy forts in the north.

I mean I don't mind Paine. He's pretty cool with his sledges and can also take it like he did with Rishabh's 'temporary captain' jibes or Ashwin today. That he dropped a catch afterwards is a different point, but at least he doesn't lose it like some Australians have in the past. I also think he's one of their better players of spin and was quite good with the way he chatted with Rahane and showed his obvious support when play was held up yesterday.

All that disclaimer aside, :kp what's with him and being liked. Last time I remember him going on to Murali Vijay how Kohli was a hated teammate while goading Murali into agreeing that he hated Virat :rabada2

Tim Paine should be removed as Australian captain after the series: Sunny Gavaskar

Legendary Indian batsman Sunil Gavaskar has launched a scathing attack on Australian skipper Tim Paine after Ajinkya Rahane's men pulled off a memorable draw against the hosts in the 3rd Test match contested at the Sydney Cricket Ground (SCG). Tempers started to flare on Day 5 of the 3rd Test as India staged an impressive fightback in order to make sure that the SCG Test ended in a stalemate.

Ravichandran Ashwin and Hanuma Vihari remained under the pump as the middle-order batsmen had to battle pain and a hostile reception from the Australian players on the final day of the SCG Test. Talking about the hostile reception, Ashwin was sledged by Australian skipper Paine as both players were involved in a heated altercation on Day 5 of the 3rd Test.

While Ashwin countered Paine's verbal volleys with a sly dig, the Australian skipper ended up abusing the Indian batsman while keeping the wickets for the Baggy Greens. Taking cognisance of Paine's unsportsmanlike behaviour during the intense moments of the game, batting maestro Gavaskar opined that the Australian skipper should be removed from the captainship.

"At the end of the day, the Indians had the last laugh. R Ashwin had the last laugh for whatever Tim Paine was saying. I don't know I am not an Australian selector, but his days as captain are numbered," Gavaskar was quoted as saying by India Today.

The former Indian skipper said that the bowling changes and field placements could have made a difference to the result but Paine was only keen on sledging the India batsmen. "But Tim Paine was more interested in talking to the batsman rather than his field placing and bowling changes. So I won't be surprised if there is a change in the Australian captaincy after the series is over," Gavaskar added.

Gavaskar also feels that Paine should focus on taking catches instead of exchanging jibes back and forth. Paine dropped three catches in the SCG Test and the Aussie skipper was trolled on social for his horror-show. "If you drop simple catches, Rishabh Pant got two edges, they were not difficult catches, the last one which he missed off Vihari was also which he could have left to the first slip," Gavaskar said.

Banter/sledging and behavior aside - I think his point is that Paine lost focus as a captain, had the best bowling attack in the world against no.6 and no.8 batsmen who were both injured, on a 5th day pitch, on home ground and yet somehow still couldn't get in the front for 1.5 sessions. In the process he dropped several catches, didn't focus on right field placements, bowling plans and was wasting his time on a useless trash talk rather than encouraging his bowlers. I saw Starc bowling in 130s towards the end which is an apt reflection on how deflated they all were. Paine didn't fail as a leader, he failed so badly that they have to define a new word for that.

Great point Savak. I wonder if he would be able to retain his place purely on performance if he is not a captain. Would love to see someone to post some stats.
 
Biggest lame duck captain in world cricket. Poor keeper, can’t really bat. Just runs his mouth
 
Stuart Broad Lashes Out At Tim Paine For His Behaviour With Ravichandran Ashwin

Australia Test captain Tim Paine’s words to Ravichandran Ashwin has drawn condemnation from veteran England paceman Stuart Broad. As the Indian team was on the process of pulling off a remarkable draw, Tim Paine began getting into the tourists’ batsmen’s head. According to Stuart Broad, the language used by the keeper-batsman was derogatory and would not escape it.

When Ravichandran Ashwin seemed unbreakable during his 128-ball vigil, Tim Paine said that he wants to get him to the Gabba as soon as possible. In response, the 34-year old stated that he wants Paine to come to India and play a series, which would be the final of his career. The 37-year old hit back by saying some abusive words as captured by the stump mics.

"I can’t wait to get you to the Gabba, Ash, I’ll tell you what, woohoo,” Paine told Ashwin ahead of Lyon’s over. To this Ashwin responded, “Just like we want to get you to India. That will be your last series. Maybe. Are you a selector here as well? At least my teammates like me, d**k head. I’ve got a lot more Indian friends than you do. Even your teammates think you’re a goose. Don’t they? Every one of them,” Paine added.

However, Ravichandran Ashwin and Hanuma Vihari continued their surge and frustrated Australia’s potent bowling attack, grounding them to dust. The pair faced 258 deliveries in the process after India lost Cheteshwar Pujara and Rishabh Pant – two set batsmen. Australia’s bowlers did create chances; however, they could not hold on to the catches. Their skipper, Tim Paine, in particular, spilled three catches.

England paceman Stuart Broad took to his official Twitter handle, saying that he admits that intense battles are all part of the game; however, Tim Paine would not escape by using the words he did. The likes of Brad Hogg and Sunil Gavaskar slammed the Tasmanian that he must back his words with performances and leading the team better.

Australian captain Tim Paine apologised Tuesday after launching an ugly tirade at India's Ravi Ashwin in the drawn Sydney Test, admitting he was "bitterly disappointed" in his own conduct.

Paine said frustration got the better of him on Monday when he tried to unsettle Ashwin, who played a key role as the tourists denied Australia to salvage a draw on the final day of the third Test.

"I want to apologise for the way I went about things yesterday... my leadership wasn't good enough, I let the pressure of the game get to me," the Australian skipper told reporters.

Stump microphones picked up Paine making a series of verbal jabs at Ashwin, including calling him a "********".

But the tail-ender was defiant and his unbeaten 39 helped keep the series level at 1-1 to set up a winner-takes-all fourth and final Test in Brisbane starting Friday.

Paine acknowledged his actions undermined the goal he set himself when appointed Test captain in 2018 to revamp the team's toxic culture after the "Sandpaper-gate" ball-tampering scandal.

"I'm a captain who wants to enjoy the game, who wants to play the game with a smile on his face and I fell short of my expectations and our team standards," he said.

Paine, who was also fined for dissent after an expletive-laden rant at umpire Paul Wilson on day two of the match, admitted "my mood throughout the whole Test was probably a bit off".

He insisted the behaviour was a "blip" that would not be repeated and said he had not considered standing down as captain over the incident.

Critics, including former England captain Michael Vaughan, said Australia appeared to be heading "back to the old days" of sledging and foul language.

Star batsman Steve Smith, who was Australia's captain during the sandpaper cheating scandal, also attracted negative attention when footage suggested he scuffed up batsman Rishabh Pant's guard at the crease.

The stump camera showed Smith shadow batting and then apparently rubbing off the pitch marks -- made by the batsmen to judge where they stand -- with his boots.

Paine said it was just part of Smith's regular routine.

"It's one of his mannerisms, he was marking centre, he wasn't by any stretch of the imagination trying to change guard or do anything like that," he said.

Paine dropped three catches during the epic final day, including a chance from Ashwin shortly after their exchange, which did not help his mood.

"I ended up looking the fool didn't I? You open your mouth and then you drop a catch," he said.

He said he spoke to Ashwin after the match and they joked about the mistake.

Tim Paine: Gavaskar entitled to his opinion but it doesn't affect me

Australia captain Tim Paine has said Sunil Gavaskar’s critical assessment of his leadership doesn’t bother him.

Paine had tried to unsettle R. Ashwin by sledging him on the final day of the Sydney Test and Gavaskar termed it “unbefitting of national team captain” and said his days as the Australia captain were numbered.

Asked if he had heard Gavaskar’s comments of him, Paine said: “I had, but I am not going to go into it and get my back and forth with Sunny Gavaskar, I think I am not going to win that.”

“He is entitled to his opinion. It doesn’t affect us one iota. It is adding to the Test match, which is great. So Sunny can keep saying what he wants to say at the end of the day, it is absolutely nothing to do with it,” Paine said.

Paine has already publicly apologised for his sledging and on Thursday said he would like to play the way he knows and that’s doing his job with a smile on his face.

“Throughout my career, I have done a pretty good job of being relaxed 99 percent of the times. That’s when I have played my best cricket. Other day, I thought I got caught up in the moment. What I have been good at it is able to step back and have a look around the crowd and realise you are captaining your country in a Test match, something I have always dreamt of. Obviously, I am going to compete very hard and I am going to win as much as anyone and I would like to competitive,” the 36-year-old said.

'Blip on the radar'

Would he continue the banter after what happened in Sydney? “I will be myself. Don’t know how many Tests I have played but I have gone about in a pretty consistent fashion. Other day, it was a blip on the radar,” he said.

Paine said he still wouldn’t mind a light-hearted banter.

“I have copped that on the chin and look to come out and play competitive cricket, as I always do. There is a bit of banter that I always do but be aware of the stump mic and be a bit more respectful of the umpires, officials and players,” he added.

Paine's sledging coming back to haunt him.

It's gonna be an interesting few weeks for him. Under immense pressure going into the South African series.
 
Tim Paine Booed by crowd at the end

Probably a send off for Paine.

He;s been quite poor and deserved to be replaced by another captain.
 
His pathetic keeping is the main reason why they lost. They had a 1-0 lead after the first test match but since then the way they have batted, they played like a team scared to lose. Also their coaching staff needs to be taken to task, it is inexcusable for them to not have any counter response to India's bowling tactics, field placements, it was pretty clear what the Indian bowlers and fielders were doing but the batsmen just had no answers and it appears the Australian coaching staff had absolutely no answers at all either.

Mitchel Starc lost his place in the side after the 2018 series and it appears his place will come under the scanner this time as well. The selection of Green was shocking, he offered nothing with the ball and his uselessness with the ball put tremendous pressure on the other bowlers and released the pressure on the Indians.
 
Bit sad actually.

Seems like it was a lot of Aussies too.
 
Come to Gabba.. Seriously.. Which Captain says that.
Its cricket, you can win and lose any place in this the world.

Told me that Australians have again been too cocky about Gabba, as records are always meant to be broken.
 
Always seemed like a nice guy but seems like the captaincy job changed him and especially this series his attitude has been pretty poor. Will probably retire.

I agree. He has two losses to India at home on his resume now and this time with an A Australian side. Him and his coaching staff had zero answers to Indian bowling tactics and field placements.

Ash rubbing it in. Not only did we beat them on the pitch, Ash destroyed Paine in the sledging battle and Paine lost his temper . Of course, Ash's IQ is probably twice that of the temporary captain so not a surprise :ashwin

The guy had apologised in-person to Ashwin, should have had just let it be. Be gracious in victory & all that...

I think that's pretty tame from Ashwin. Apology or not, when someone crosses the line on the field and calls an opponent a *ickhe@d for no reason whatsoever, they deserve to be called out.

The mediocrity gets caught when you lose. Paine has had a poor series as captain and as a keeper, and an average one as a batsman.
 
I don't think Ashwin's tweet was in bad faith. Indian team has done wonderful gestures here. Here is them presenting a signed jersey to Lyon for his 100th test after match today

Yeah it's not at all unwarranted. Ashwin has no reason to be the bigger man

Rubbing it in, overdoing a bit much?

Given the kind of bloke Ashwin, this could very well be genuine.

Remember cricketers are grown up men. They don't keep grudges like internet little men do. They play hard and usually get along well off the field unless things get too personal and nasty .

Ashwin is a thorough gentleman.

This is great stuff.

Hats off to this rivalry
 
Was fan of KP as a player and now really enjoy hearing him in the comm box and as an expert. Hits the core more often than not without trying to sugarcoat his comments and without much biases. Its his personal Ig account so obviously he has right to troll a bit too. :smith
 
Everyone's having a go at them, but this has to be greatest from one of the finest cricket trolls :)))
 
Will be interesting to see how Australia responds to this criticism in their next series against South Africa.

I think SA stand a very good chance of winning now.

An Australian side short on confidence, beaten in their own backyard.

SA should employ similar tactics like India, and make sure that they threaten the batsmen who are out of form.

If SA win the series as well, Australia will have a hard time finding their feet due to a few away tours in tough conditions.

How likely is it that India will invite Australia for a series in 2022? If anyone knows?
 
KP is the biggest troll ever :)))

Knows how to get under the skin of the Aussies like no other lol
 
LOL!! Paine had a horrible series. A make shift captain to restore the dignity of Aussies was caught sledging and had to apologize. His keeping was atrocious and one of the main reasons for their demise. Why do they need him in the team anymore.
 
Aus deserves it this was Embarrassing!!

Any decent team shouldn't be losing against this bowling attack

AT home!! :abbas1
