It was Trescothick, the bowler being one-Test-wonder Dinuk Hettiarachchi. I remember it well indeed.
Haha, Sehwag had a similar dismissal in the 2002 NatWest Series final off Ashley Giles, when he played a stroke after the ball had hit the stumps.
Yeah, they both did - what everyone forgets is that Thorpe almost did it twice. Cairns' slower-ball-Yorker deceived many England batsmen that summer of 1999, Read most spectacularly at Lord's, but Thorpe also. Then Courtney Walsh repeated the trick the following year in Thorpe's comeback Test.I know Thorpe did that once.
I cannot beleive that, is there some trickery involved. If not , that is absolute madness
Match Fixing. You see how the batsman looks at the umpire and he is given out.I cannot beleive that, is there some trickery involved. If not , that is absolute madness
what game was it?
Oh dear god...
Well that's certainly what all the comments seemed to imply (not that they neccessarily mean much).
I mean, that's seriously WTFish, but... wouldn't you expect something that patently awful to have some sort of fuss made over it?
Surrey v Sussex - who else would it be?
