Subject: RE: BS: Bury the Ashes?
I see the grand old English tradition of cheating when playing Australia has been revived in the current match. Michael Clarke's choice to take advantage of an umpire's mistake when he knew he'd been caught out isn't quite in the same league as the introduction of bodyline bowling back in 1932, since it didn't involve risking killing anyone, but in the old expression, it defintely wasn't cricket.

I rather assume it will backfire badly.
