The big bat that's too big
Cricket law-makers the MCC have ruled that the bat used by
Australia's Ricky Ponting, and other cricketers sponsored by
Kookaburra, is illegal. The bat has been withdrawn with
immediate effect and will not be used in upcoming international
matches.
The bat attracted interest because the length of the blade
was supported by a backing strip of graphite. The MCC stated:
"Following a thorough review, MCC has concluded that
these bats do not comply with law six."
