England Ball Tampering ! - ketchim - 03-06-2014
Umpire Marais Erasmus, clearly suspecting that the wear to the ball was due to factors beyond those expected
when it is used on an abrasive pitch or hit to the boundary, exchanged strong words with the England captain, Stuart Broad,
in the 35th over but did not identify any specific culprit.

The match referee, Andy Pycroft, confirmed that the ball had been changed on the basis of playing regulation 42.1.2 :
- which comes under 'Fair and unfair play' -
and that, as captain, Broad had been issued with a first and final warning that any further occurrence in the series
would result in a five-run penalty and the reporting of Broad, as captain, to the ICC.

Ramdin, whose 128 carried West Indies to within sight of an unexpected victory, also confirmed that the newer ball had been
"a bit harder and came off the bat a bit better".... ;D
