John Howard's Plans For Cricket

Former Australian Prime Minister John Howard will take over the chairmanship of the International Cricket Council from 2012. His manifesto was apparently what got him over the line.

It's called CricketChoices, and I leaked them today on Twitter:

1. No appeals.

2. All dismissals final.

3. Umpires abolished

4. Bowlers are able to dismiss batsmen without bowling

5. Batsmen have a six over probationary period & can be dismissed

6. Bowlers may not dismiss batsmen for refusing to take crease. But can dismiss for any other reason

7. Batsmen can be dismissed but brought back to the crease if they give up their helmet, bat, gloves and 100 runs.

They seem awfully familiar, don't they?
