England fans brutally troll Australia's Steve Smith with hilarious chant over cheat storm that even has players giggling | The Sun

ENGLAND fans were in fine voice during The Ashes as they brutally trolled Steve Smith.

Smith, 34, was in action for Australia as they took on England at Edgbaston on Day four of the First Ashes Test.


And while Smith was fielding for the Aussie's, he had wandered towards the notorious Eric Hollies stand.

The crowd promptly found their voice as he took up his position.

They could be heard chanting: "Cry on the telly, we saw you cry on the telly.

"Cry on the telly, we saw you cry on the telly."

The chant derives from Smith's involvement in a cheat storm which saw him embroiled in a ball-tampering scandal against South Africa in 2018.

After the scandal broke, Smith faced the press and broke down crying as he apologised in an emotional press conference.

The chants from the Edgbaston crowd even had England batsmanOllie Robinson laughing under his helmet.

Fans online were also left in stitches, with one writing: "Cried on the telly hahaha."
