	Guardian Unlimited Sport \| Cricket \| Interview: Mark Waugh
		Mark Waugh has scored 81 first-class hundreds in his triumphant career, but the century he is closing in on as he sits in the foyer of a hotel in Oxford is not numbered among his favourites.
		But if this is the end, if his place in history is to be now marked as indelibly in the record books as it is on his ankle, then Waugh seems determined to face up to it with the same shoulder-shrugging display of indifference that has characterised his every move in cricket.
		Waugh has signed a two-week contract with the county for whom he played with such distinction in the early 90s.

	rediff.com: cricket channel - Mark Waugh almost quit cricket

		Waugh's emotional stress peaked in January last year when an International Cricket Council corruption team arrived in Melbourne to interview him about claims from Indian bookmaker Mukesh Gupta that Waugh was on his payroll, the newspaper said.
		Waugh said he was upset the ACB distanced itself from him in that period.

	Sport \| Curtain comes down on Mark Waugh
		The Australia selectors did the unthinkable yesterday and announced that Mark Waugh, the younger of the Sydney-born twins who together are the most capped siblings the game has seen, was dropped from the side to face England in the first Ashes Test which starts in Brisbane on Thursday week.
		Waugh's replacement is the 32-year-old Darren Lehmann, the Yorkshire captain, a move hardly likely to gain plaudits when the time would seem right for the introduction of the next generation.
		Waugh is believed to have had the support of his teammates but, after a lean time with the bat, had failed to take the opportunities offered by the recent series against Pakistan in Sharjah and has paid the price.

		The twin brother of Australian captain Steve Waugh and a star batsman in his own right, Mark Waugh is at the centre of the storm that has cast a dark pall over his career and a cloud over the all-conquering Australian cricket team.
		Waugh, 35, has previously admitted he was paid 4,000 US by a bookie known to him as "John" -- an alias used by Gupta -- in Sri Lanka in 1994 for pitch and weather information.
		Waugh conceded late last month that the scandal which has dogged him in recent seasons has added to the pressures of playing cricket for his country, although he has been invariably rated among the most gifted of batsmen.

	Mark Waugh Accepts End - Cricket News 28/10/02
		Waugh, who has been in a slump recently after being dropped from the Australian One Day Team, was not able to hold his place in the Test squad after a recent poor performance against Pakistan in their three match series held in Colombo and Sharjah.
		Although Waugh has performed exceptionally well in previous Ashes series against the English, both in England and at home, the ACB believes Darren Lehmann to be a more suitable selection due to his consistent form with the bat over the last few seasons.
		Waugh continued to maintain the confidence of fellow Australian team members, many of whom have come out in support of their team-mate in recent days with a number of media interviews, but was unable to stave off his inevitable even if, mostly unexpected axing from the Test team.

	The timing never sweeter for Mark Waugh - theage.com.au
		Sweet timing has been the essence of Mark Waugh's batting at its best, and sweet timing is likely to have worked for him yesterday when the Australian selectors sat to decide his Test future.
		The case against the junior Waugh twin's selection for the first Test against England, which starts in Brisbane on November 7, is compelling enough, and his omission would raise few eyebrows.
		The decision to axe Waugh would be hard to resist if his figures showed he had lost the ability to play at Test level; if a prospective replacement was pushing down the door with the sheer weight of runs; and if the Australian team would perform better without him.

		Waugh said bias had been shown towards Queenslanders Andrew Symonds and Nathan Hauritz - who in the past year have had brief and inglorious Test cricket debuts in Sri Lanka and India respectively - as well as James Hopes, on his first international tour with the Australian one-day squad in New Zealand.
		Waugh, who averaged 41.82 in 128 Tests, had been mentioned as a NSW-backed candidate for the four-man panel but he has admitted in the past to not being an interested cricket watcher.
