Parore thinks Lee's beamers 'could kill'

The downmarket tabloid the Daily Telegraph runs with the backpage headline “BRETT LEE WILL KILL SOMEONE”. Adam Parore is pointing the finger at Lee after he delivered another beamer during Wednesday’s Chappell-Hadlee match. "If he was unlucky, there is a very real possibility he could kill someone ... I am bloody sure he wouldn't want to live with that."

The paper also compares Lee’s 18-run 49th over to Bruce Reid’s blowout against Allan Lamb in 1986-87. "After I went for that 18 I didn't bowl at the death much again in my career, certainly not for Australia,” Reid says.
