Was Gilly right?

Hansie Cronje was admonished for using an earpiece. Ricky Ponting had a graphite coated bat. Now, Gilly, the Australian who single-handedly gave Australia their fourth world cup last month has admitted to using a squash ball in his left glove to improve his grip.

Ah! If a squash ball is legal, then so is a bottle cap, and so is a lip-gel. C'mon..all this improve your chances on the field, doesn't it? And this was the World Cup final, mind you..

I only hope, the world cup is snatched away from Australia and given to the Sri Lankans
