Ozzie weathermen aren’t fussed
So the talk Down Under turns to sport
“Ball Tampering” makes cricket fraught.
Shock! Horror! strikes the Nation’s game
Commentators cry for shame
A cheating Captain* in full view
The players in a right old stew!
For many an avid cricket fan
The camera close-up clearly can
Put a new spin on ball play
And take the shine out of the day!
