jelly beans to keep the shine on the ball
by deetee on Jul 31, 2007 12:46 PM

the english must have got the jelly beans on the ground to keep the shine on the ball. some years back steve waugh said that many english bowlers eat sweets and then rub their saliva on the ball to keep the shine. rahul dravid was also fined once for doing that with a lozenege. but nobody will even think about that with the english. just because they are from england everybody thinks they are going to play fair!! throwing jelly beans to distract the batsmen, never heard of anything more kiddish on a cricket field!!
good to see zaks take them apart, sreesanth when are you coming to the party. if he can get his line back then zaks/sree can take eng apart for less than 100!!
the bbc days report implies that sreesanth walked away after bowling that beamer, the author conveniently forgot to mention that sreesanth apologised immediately!!
