England's reluctance inspired me to walk, says Gilchrist JOHANNESBURG, Thursday (AFP) -Australian wicket-keeper Adam Gilchrist said on Wednesday he "walked" in the World Cup semi-final against Sri Lanka after watching England batsmen standing their ground last summer. Gilchrist stunned spectators and team-mates alike at Port Elizabeth on Tuesday when he walked off even as umpire Rudi Koertzen negated an appeal for a catch at the wicket off Aravinda De Silva. The Australian vice-captain said it was the frustration at watching English captain Nasser Hussain and Michael Vaughan standing their ground during the recent Ashes series that made him "walk". |
