Why I ask this question is an answer on a previous question from an Indian user (I belive) stating Stephen used his mind and not harsh words to conquer oponets.
Stephen Waugh didnt invent sledging ,but he and his Australian team pretty much prefected it. He got inside the minds of many opponets and alot came undone before they even strapped a pad on. There was also fierce competition on the field and PLENTY of sleding ( I prefer gamesmanship or banter) and Stephen would never give an inch and if they could not get a wicket he would psycolocicaly strangle opponets till they came undone. (PLEASE dont think this is a go at Stephen, he is my favourite player and always will be, and I think this is the way cricket should be played, and if you dont, dont ever complain that test cricket is boring, cause this adds excitment to the game)
So with these points, why is Punter so hated on the Sub Continet and Stephen admired so.
