Faulkner took his clothes off, says Haddin

Melbourne, March 31 

Giving a peek into the Australian cricketers’ celebration after the World Cup triumph, Brad Haddin, who’s just announced retirement from One-Day International cricket, said all-rounder James Faulkner got his “clothes off” in the after party. 

“I’ll paint a picture for you now. I’ve got James Faulkner who’s got his clothes off but don’t tell everyone,” Haddin said. “I’ve got a coach who’s spooning the World Cup. And I’ve got the Marsh boys, and you know I can’t even talk about the Marsh boys because you know what trouble they have. I’ve got Josh Hazlewood... he’s never been drunk in 30 years. It’s a problem. We just can’t get him drunk. He’s an absolute nightmare to drink with.”

Asked about the send-offs to New Zealand opener Martin Guptill and Grant Elliot during the final and the constant sledging by the Australians, Haddin said: “You know what? They deserved it. They were that nice to us in New Zealand (during their match in the pool stages) and we were that uncomfortable.

The 37-year-old wicketkeeper also said it was never his intention to offend anyone during a radio interview after the title win. “We were celebrating a World Cup win and enjoying ourselves after a long tournament. In hindsight, we should have stayed off the radio. If I offended anyone, it was never my intention.” — PTI
