I am well aware of the fact that English fans are very neutral when it comes to supporting a team or a particular player.

But don't quite understand what's wrong with them these days as they continue to boo Warner and Smith.

In the warm-up match also, Smith was booed by NEUTRAL English fans when he got to his 100.

Today during the match, it was no different. As Warner went out to open the innings again the English fans were up to their task. More apparently as Smith got out, he was greeted probably with the loudest cheer of the match.

Even Moeen Ali had said before the World Cup started , that he hopes the fans would be nice to them and welcome them with a bit of warmth.

Probably they need to understand that these duo have served their time and are different individuals what they were couple of years back. I know IPL is a franchise league, but still Warner and Smith were given their due respect and warmth during the event.

I sincerely hope for a change in the manner they are received as the tournament goes on.
