Stump mic captures Jos Buttler absolutely going in on Vernon Philander
Pommy keeper Jos Buttler dropped six F-bombs in 20 seconds in an angry rant at South Africa’s Vernon Philander.
A tense final day in England’s stirring 189-run win against South Africa in the Second Test in Cape Town got the better of Jos Buttler in a moment he’ll likely regret.
Searching desperately for wickets in the final session, Buttler objected to Proteas tailender Vernon Philander failing to step out of the way so he could receive a throw from mid-off.
“Get out the f***ing way,” said Buttler with aggression, prompting Philander to stare back at him.
“F***ing move,” the Pom continued. “You know it’s going to f***ing (inaudible), just move … f***ing k***head.”
First slip Ben Stokes backed his man, adding: “Don’t stare him out. He’s got a point, mate.”
Buttler completed the tirade by suggesting the throw had some work to do to “f***ing, get past that f***ing gut” without Philander standing in the way.

Re: Australia v New Zealand
aussie media having a cry for a change. Racist sherry.
Phillander acted like a prat, Jos called him on it.
How can it be "bad winners" when we hadn't won.
Oh and awesome spell from Stokes.

Appears to be an aussie whingeing about an event in a game that doesn't even affect them.

The World XI are very hard to beat at home, not surprised after series wins v NZ and Pakistan that they have risen.

Re: Australia v New Zealand
Ben Stokes hates the aussie cricketers, as do most of the world. He would be insulted to be called " an aussie ".

A bit flawed though as it only includes place of birth and not actual nationality.

Lucky Stokes is a New Zealander. A Pom would never behave like this. I wonder the reaction if it was Warner.God is an Englishman wrote:Cooper wrote:

Ben Stokes has been caught on camera abusing a South African fan
Ben Stokes has apologised after returning serve to an abusive fan when returning to the pavilion following his dismissal in the Test match between Engand and South Africa.
BEN STOKES launched a foul-mouthed tirade at a spectator after allegedly being called a ‘ginger c***’ and compared to Ed Sheeran.
The superstar all-rounder was picked up on TV telling the fan: “Come and say it to me outside the ground, you f***** four-eyed c***.”
He could now be in trouble with match referee Andy Pycroft.
Stokes was caught in the slips off Anrich Nortje for just two and was clearly angry and frustrated at getting out.
As he was about to enter the players’ tunnel at the Wanderers ground - known locally as the Bullring - Stokes turned his head to his right and shouted at a man who looked to be in his 30s.
Spectators in the area claimed the man was drunk and had made a comment about singer Ed Sheeran, who has ginger hair like Stokes.
Sheeran was Stokes’ celebrity supporter when he was named BBC Sports Personality of the Year in December.
Stokes then gestured with his hand and appeared to say: “Come and say it to me outside the ground, you f***** four-eyed c***.”
The words were heard by mics used by the host broadcaster Supersport, whose coverage is taken by Sky in the UK. Sky later apologised if any viewers heard any offensive language.
In a Twitter statement after the close of play, Stokes said: “I wish to apologise for my language that was heard on the live broadcast today after my dismissal.
“I should not have reacted in that way. As I was leaving the playing area, I was subjected to repeated abuse from the crowd.
“I admit that my reaction was unprofessional, and I sincerely apologise for the language I used, especially to the many young fans watching the live telecast around the world.
“Throughout the Tests so far, the support from both sets of fans (England and South Africa) has been brilliant. One incident will not ruin such a competitive series, which we are determined to win.”
