How does that work? He was sentenced to 4 years in prison but was set free because he'd already served 375 days in custody, so only needed to serve 1 year of a 4 year sentence?

So weird that by pleading guilty he basically got himself released from prison

You always get a discount for pleading guilty, but he got out today because a certain amount of his time was suspended. So if does anything else, he comes back for whatever the new charge is plus serves the extra time for this one on top of it

Not saying he was the greatest commentator but he seemed fairly normal. Even when he commentated in England for Channel 5 was it? Before Sky kicked in.

A year on bail?

Sounds like your criminal justice system is almost as ****ed up as ours

Has a Test batting average of 45.43 and a FC batting average of 45.41. I wonder what the closest a batter or a bowler has between their FC and Test averages.

Might be some players who's only FC games were Tests so they'd be identical

A few mentioned in this old thread:

International cricketers who never played any FC cricket

Stumbled upon this bloke: Krishmar Santokie. I was surprised to see that he played international level cricket without ever playing FC cricket. Is he a unique case or can we come up with anyone else?
