Two things have come out from this Australia-South Africa Test Match.

When Brian Lara scored 400 against England to reclaim the highest Test Cricket score from Mathew Hayden, Australian players and media were obviously pretty peeved. They went on to claim that it was very selfish of Lara to delay the declaration for the record, and we were made to believe that Aussies won't ever do it.

We believed it until this Test match. For Bradd Hodge's double century, they delayed the declaration astonishingly late. And lo, South Africa managed to draw the game.

The other thing was the claim which Shane Warne used to make regularly that Murlitharan bowls half the overs of Srilanka, and that's why he gets more wickets. As it turned out in this match when going got tough, he bowled almost half the overs of Australia himself, and didn't get many wickets. So much for the claims.

This is what called Badhbolapan.
