never heard of him

Couldn't have watched too much county cricket over the past couple of years. He's a Taunton born spinner who has taken more wickets than any other Englishman (I believe( in the past two seasons in the County Championship. It was a bit ridiculous that he didn't get called up a year ago.

What do you expect from an ex gloucestershire player!

He's not ours now, he's yours! You take the flack... Ha.

 

I'm unsure on this one. I think I feel sorry for him. Will be thrown under the bus, I'd put every penny I own that it wasn't his idea and he was instructed to do it, but still, saying yes was stupid.

Yep clearly the captain and coach were in on it as well. Lehmann gave the instruction for him to hide it.

That`s a bit of a `mea culpa` for sure! He`s as good as said the whole team and coaches are guilty of premeditated cheating. There`s grounds there for the ICCB banning Australia from test cricket IMO (not that they will, they`re the only team that fill grounds).
