It was in the paper today. Slater doesn't come out of this well, and if
this is his version of events 4 years after the fact then I wonder how he
actually carried on at the time.

in briz, also wondering if SRW will issue a statement. I'm betting no.

Any idea whether the  slater n gilchrist's wife alleged relationship
rumour  hapned after this or it was before this incident?  

apparently tehre were tears all around

Slater was stunned at Gilchrist's outburst and went quiet at the end
of an incident that left him in tears, shaking and feeling alone.

He was too upset to complete training and stormed off, crying. Matthew
Hayden tried to stop Slater leaving, crying as well, before Shane
Warne put his arm around Slater, asked if he was OK and offered him a
cigarette.

 At this, Adam Gilchrist had his say.

"'Slats', he barked, 'shut up. You're out of order; you're out of
line. We're trying to get ready for the next Test and this is not
appropriate.'

"Even though there was an element of truth in what he said, I'd never
seen Adam react that way. I was so surprised I decided to sit back and
let the tension defuse."

Slater stormed from training back to the hotel.
