Bermuda’s Dwayne ‘Sluggo’ Leverock, a heavy-set full-time policeman, is the first celebrity of the World Cup after his performance against England. His story is covered in the Sydney Morning Herald, the Courier-Mail and The Australian.
Damien Fleming says Shaun Tait should be let loose during the death overs in the West Indies.
"Just unleash him on the opposition batsmen and if there's any reverse swing, even better for him," Fleming said in the Herald Sun. "He has to bowl at the death. He has a great yorker. With no Brett Lee so much hinges on Tait's performance."
The Age reports scientific evidence showing how much energy is needed to make a Test century.
