LONDON, Aug 26: Gary Pratt, who enjoyed his fifteen minutes of fame when he ran out Australian skipper Ricky Ponting during the Ashes last year, was cast into the cricket wilderness on Friday when he was axed by Durham. The 23-year-old claimed the scalp of Ponting in the fourth Ashes Test at Trent Bridge in 2005 and sparked a major row over England's use of substitute fielders.—AFP
