If you do a few searches on cricinfo, it is not very hard to work out who this one is, even though his name has been supressed...

looks like channel 7 are going to be in the shite as they named him in their broadcast. or is it only suppressed in national news services to protect the Qld people much like how SA didnt get any info on the Snowtown case

Clue: He was the umpire at the other end when Murali was called for throwing in that one-day game at Adelaide Oval.

If he gets binned it might be the START of a GLITTERing career MAL! 8.2!

Obviously a MALadjustment is required to ensure his GLITTERing career doesn't take off.
