Ajmal has been suspended for having an illegal action. This is a big boost for the Aussies in the UAE series.

I've always thought he chucked the ball, it's quite amazing that only now all these spinners are being tested, and a majority of them are found to have an illegal action.

Thoughts on Cameron Boyce being included in the T20 squad. Looked good in the Big Bash earlier this year as an attacking Leg Spinner.

Fine with that.

But who was the idiot that included Glenn 'the big spud' Maxwell in the test squad? ::)

Adam Lyth another century. :) 1428 runs @ 71 for the season now. A record much greater than Gary's was last season, should get a gig in England test side as an opener very soon :)

Speaking of Gary, he's scored runs too, sitting on 93* atm.

Morkel was just on a hat-tick against NZ, didn't get Ronchi with the attempted yorker

NZ currently 5/79 from 18 overs

[Bill Manspeaker]

Ronchi out for 99 :(

batted beautifully. could have had his century but only ran 1 off the last ball of the previous over to keep the strike

last wicket partnership of 74. NZ all out 230
