"Teenage indiscretions" is a nice way of excusing what the majority of people manage to avoid doing.
"My new muslim friend is the bomb" is just rude? Jesus, even he admitted that what he wrote was racist and sexist.
It might just be coincidence that he went after the only Muslim in the Australia team; the only fella that looks obviously not white, even though there are other indigenous players. He went after him twice, unprovoked.
You could try to argue I'm putting 2 and 2 together and getting 5; but based on his track record, I think I've reached a very defensible conclusion.
Well I have to wholeheartedly disagree.
I find the suggestion that he was abusive toward Khawaja because he is rascist quite abhorrent.
Further, I feel the ongoing attempt at justifying it is disgusting.
here’s why;
1.I don’t believe that our actions as a teenager necessarily define us a decade or so later.
2.As he accepted his guilt and regret, very publicy, he would surely be the very last person to do anything with rascist intent in such a public way
3.For a very long time, bowlers have been hurling abuse at batters - especially those they are struggling to get out - and given that Khawaja had faced so many balls, it makes sense that the bowler would need to find a way to un-settle him
I would suggest looking at this minor incident objectively, rather than prejudiciously.
