What Paul did not say was that during the match one player hit the ball for a
six (into the spectators )and it landed in somebody's pint of beer!

Not only was the beer lost, but wetting the ball is considered tampering with it
and so the ball was replaced as well! Caused quite a commotion, I understand.
Particularly as both captains have to agree on the replacement ball, which must
have been used for the same number of overs!

I guess it is a bit like a hole-in-one in golf...
