What a knock from Sachin!!

And lol at Sharma, finally gets some new gloves out there and gets bowled 1st ball. Those gloves are probably going straight in the bin, or to a fan.

Bollywood must have taught Lee well if he was acting there, looked pretty horrified the second he bowled it.

It is ridiculous people are suggesting that he bowled it purposely. Tendulkar and Lee shook hands just after it, the ball was wet as well. Lee and Tendulkar have been pretty sporting with each other and I would imagine Lee to be pretty sinister if he bowled it on purpose given the way both have been sharing smiles all day (which they did even after the over was complete).

I just find it very hard to believe that a bowler who has improved his control so much as Lee has suddenly misses his length by about 20 yards. It's not like he was attempting a slower ball either.
Easily explainable. A bit of moisture on the ball and trying to bowl a 150km/h yorker...Stuff like that can happen. Sorry, but you're deluded if you think Lee did that on purpose.

it's called a genuine mistake, i thinkl you will fine everyone does it once in awhile.
And Lee just happens to do it more than once in awhile. Yeah, it was a mistake, but he certainly does make that mistake a lot more than others. Although not so much in recent times.

It's not like he has a history of doing it, is it?

Look, I don't know whether he did on purpose or not; it's why bowlers are never called on them because intent is impossible to prove. I do think that it's naive in the extreme to think that no bowler has ever sent one down deliberately tho. Unless a bowler is attempting a complicated slower ball, I struggle to believe one of international class can really **** a delivery up so badly.
