Worst Ideas

Biryani Pillow

U19 Vice-Captain
Square leg umpire calling no balls.
There are two no balls which only the strikers end umpire can call - encroachment by the wicket keeper and more than 2 fielders behind square leg on the leg side.

Worst current Law = no ball for a bowler breaking the wicket at his end during delivery.

Was a reference to Lehmann's recent comments, I believe.
 

Howsie

International Captain
Only being allowed four fielders outside the ring in an ODI. Made for some pretty boring cricket.
 

Burgey

The aluminium bat.

Incidentally, my prospective father in law has one which he bought off DK in the early 80s. Lillee had dozens of them made apparently, and couldn't shift them

Producing raging green seamers for an opposition that is a) more equipped seam-wise and b) more equipping batting technique-wise.
