First Ashes Test destroyer Mitchell Johnson has said that sledging and aggression would always be a part of Australian cricket although he sympathized with the case of Jonathan Trott.

According to Fox Sports, Johnson dismissed Trott in both innings in an intimidating man-of-the-match performance at the Gabba.

Trott has since quit the tour with a stress-related illness, the report said.

Speaking in Perth where he is resting ahead of the Second Test, Johnson said he had no idea about Trott's situation, the report added.

Johnson said that the England side does not like the sledging at all and their coach has come out and wanted a truce but nothing was going to change from the Australian end.
