In fairness I saw one or two head injuries from stray beach ball punches at the Gabba some years ago.


Mind you I also recall an Andy Bichel six breaking the nose of an old lady in the crowd at a one day game too, so perhaps should just ban all spectators like domestic cricket does now.

This is entertaining stuff. This pitch is no fun to bat on at all, but Clarke is still trying to hit every single ball for four.

How the **** do you get a head injury from a beach ball do you have no skull?

Pretty sure I remember England in Safrica a few years ago now a spectator getting a ball fluh in the head as he tried to catch it.

I think it was in the Champions Trophy, off a Shane Watson pull shot.

It's only in this session that a couple of balls have stayed low. Other than that it's been a road,
