Continuing with the theme of coincidences, at the very time when KP is making all the Test Cricket headlines......
1977
Tony Greig was summarily sacked after it emerged he was in league with Kerry Packer, who was setting up a rival Test Series for Channel Nine in Australia.
This was a monumental moment in cricket, & was to change everything, in so many ways.
Greig was reviled for being a traitor, & was almost hounded out of the UK.
He cut a deal with Packer though, made himself a very rich man indeed, & in later years, became, in many ways, quite a hero & well-liked bloke.
Oh my, how we despised Packer & Greig at the time, though.
This is a great, great story, I hope you take a moment to read it.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/World_Series_Cricket
Until that time, cricketers were paid a pittance, but Packer changed all that, & Mr Pietersen & Co would do well to remember the debt they owe to Kerry Packer & Tony Greig.
The Court Case alone lasted 7 weeks.

The irony is we may be coming pack to this as there is talk of a rival cricket organisation to the ICC funded by an Indian company. Given the way the minor nations are treated I actually think they may have some success.
By the way love the thread but no good at posting pictures etc.

Petrol rationing ended. Just imagine, petrol rationing. It happened again, briefly, during the 1980's oil crisis iirc, & it was utter bedlam.
