In my opinion they should have news balls every 30 overs, that way teams will have less of an incentive to cheat.

Yep, you are all of delusional, blind and foolish if you think this most recent act of “cheating”, “ball tampering”, “line breaking”, “spirit ruining”, “career suicide for Smith, Lehmann, and the leadership group”- or whatever words you choose to spew from atop your high horse — is not a common happening in cricket all over the world.

Heck, you can guarantee that even the Australian team knew what was going on. And further to this, you can rest assured they were trying to find out which lolly would let them in on the act of “cheating”, “ball tampering”, “line breaking”, “spirit ruining” etc.

What surprised me most about Trescothick’s admission was the reaction.
In England, he was hailed a hero for being the man brave enough to risk his professional integrity as the man responsible for defeating those bastard Australians.
