A couple of days ago I was thinking of suggesting that test captains should be yellow-carded for a few overs if they were making no attempt to keep up with the required over-rate after being warned by the umpire.

Tested, not trialled, JK. There is no such word as trialled.

Just what cricket needs - another pretext for clowns like Billy Bowden to play to the cameras.

Thats a pathetic idea. I'm sure these people have to just justify their jobs and one way of doing that is farting around with stupid ideas.
