Brian McKechnie would never have hit the ball for six anyway. I don't know what all the fuss was about <s>

>If you are referring to underarm bowling: that had all but disappeared from the game until the 1980s when a bowler from a notoriously unsportsmanlike nation claimed he was delivering an "underarm bowl" as he rolled the last ball along the ground to ensure that his side would win. That was judged against the spirit of Cricket, and underarm bowling was subsequently banned. In many parts of the world to "bowl underarm" has come to mean behaving in an improper, disreputable fashion.
