You said the Austr alians were naïve. But if you look at positives to come out of pu ball Supplier it, it will be interesting to see what happens if somebody gets done for ball tampering in the future now.ExcerptsIndia will be playing a Test series in England after a lot of white-ball cricket."Bhuvi and Bumrah have got pretty good control. If he performs, it will have a knock-on effect on the rest of the team. I think the Australian way is to play hard and tough in the middle, but in all fairness. If they see it as a problem, they have to be really proactive and get on top of it. With technology and 30-odd cameras around, they can see everything. That’s what you need in England. I think sledging is a wrong term.Do you think Steve Smith and David Warner can bounce back?Yes, everyone makes mistakes.There have been suggestions that Australia have to cut down on sledging. In Australia, we call it a little bit of mongrel. Does it worry you?There is always a concern if it’s true. Warner might find it a little tougher coming back, but he, too, is good a player as well. Experience plays a big part to be able to adjust and adapt quickly. He has got to be prepared to work hard. There is nothing new I can add to what happened. He has got a unique action, but he bowls good lengths. They had to front the media and everyone back home. I’m sure Smith will come back a better person and player. It’s a low point for Australian cricket. There is always a bit of chat. If anyone gets done again, the punishment might be a little bit harsher. There’s no doubt that he’s a quality batsman, but the English conditions are pretty tough. The little bit of chatting is putting a pressure on the opponents and making them feel uncomfortable. That’s where the line was crossed previously.The Aussie expects Bhuvi, Bumrah to excel in England. Australia need these quality players in the team.Al Jazeera’s sting operation and corruption in cricket.. I’m looking forward to that battle. In England, you just have to get the right length. If we become too nice on the field, that’s not the Australian way. Glenn McGrath Chennai: Former Australia pacer Glenn McGrath feels Bhuvneshwar Kumar and Jasprit Bumrah will enjoy bowling in England conditions and the onus is on India’s batsmen to deliver in the highly-anticipated five-Test series in August. I don’t know whether you can stop it. They can see what’s happening. So the line in the sand has been drawn there. How challenging is it going to be for them to adapt to the red ball in the English conditions?A lot of it depens on the tour matches and the preparation time. You have got to adapt a lot quicker these days. To think that you can get away with that in the first place was very naive. It’s hard to comment as nothing has been proved yet and I haven’t seen the footage.Can ball tampering be stopped?The umpires are in a good position
