First Class Cricket Talk (International and State)

Ponting 1st player EVER to score hundred in both innings of 100th Test.

Quite remarkable...he's already well on the way to breaking his 2nd place on the most runs scored in calendar year record...
Is 2009 the year of the Tiger?

Was interested to hear that Botha has apparently been reported for having a suspect action but I would have thought if he is considered to have a suspect action,surely Harbajan Singh and Murali have suspect actions but (at the risk of sounding like a conspiracy theorist) is doing something about them in the "too hard" basket? Not that they will necessarily do anything about Botha either.
The way the lad handled himself with the bat he may have a future as a batsman if he works hard at it.

Why would Botha have his action reported as suspect?
It appears to be as legitimate as the Harbijahn or Murali arm twist.I think most of us are immune to watching dodgy actions,we see them so often.
PAFC. Forever.
