Or so it seems as they sent in one of their own to protest his wicket at Canterbury yesterday.
Just as Plunkett was clean bowled by Brett Lee, in the Australian tour match against the England Lions, a seagull swooped down and stole a dislodged bail.

Brilliant Aussie scientist, Simon Katich, has come up with the theory that the seagull thought the bail was a chip. Personally, I think the gulls are all on the ECB payroll … I’m not paranoid … really …
