England captain Paul Collingwood’s decision to effect Grant Elliott’s run-out won’t haunt him for a long time after all. He has been banned for four One-day Internationals, but for a different reason altogether.
Collingwood’s bowlers failed to complete 50 overs in the stipulated time in their defeat to New Zealand in the fourth One-dayer at The Oval, which was his second such offence inside 12 months, prompting match referee Javagal Srinath to ban the England skipper.
As a result, he will miss the final ODI against New Zealand, the Twenty20 International against South Africa on August 20 at Chester-le-Street, and two ODIs against Scotland and the Proteas.
