Shane Bond's back

Shane Bond has made yet another all-time list. Not a good one this time. He has made Cricinfo's list of players whose injuries have over-shadowed their on-field performances.

Perhaps the most interesting thing about his inclusion on this list is this particular quote:

Last August, he returned to the New Zealand Test team after an absence of two years, complete with a remodelled action. But having lost a yard of pace it is claimed that he was persuaded to revert to his former style, and though he grabbed ten wickets to rout Zimbabwe at Bulawayo, he was soon being ushered back to the doctor's waiting-room.

I wonder how much truth there is to that.
