In a game it happened last year I didnt notice until after tea on the second day but we had already lost that game on the first day so it wouldnt have mattered. Personally I dont think its a big deal if you play on different decks from week to week, the conditions change that much through the week its basically a fresh deck anyway.. The District Saturday/Sunday games would be the only time it mattered IMO. But those are the rules and we must cop the fall out

I tend to agree with you there. The pitch can vary just as much in a week.

It might be that the umpire will report the player at the end of the 2-day round???

Then again, wouldn't be the first time the Grange boys got away with it.

Ha ha...what a great photo. Was that the day at the SCG when the Aussie batsman broke his bat on one and was given not out. Michael Holding was crying like a baby. Great bowler to watch.
