Re: Cricket

Well it's looking good but we've been here before so I won't be counting any chickens just yet. Traditionally England have often lacked a killer punch so I'm hoping tomorrow will show that they've well and truly acquired one.

As regards Ponting's antics and some of the other goings on, I'm beginning to wonder if cricket should follow Rugby and adopt a yellow card system whereby unsavoury incidents on the pitch could result in a player being sent off for a period of time. Cricket can well do without this sort of thing and an instant penalty as opposed to an 'after the event' fine or ban might better focus a few minds.
