I don't get any of it, why underhanded throw is disgraceful to begin with....I hope to get explanation of that, but also, the explanation at the end, I'll quote:

some british dude said:There's a series of rules designed to make the game flow more freely and avoid incidents such as the one that happened here today. Now there's the relevant rule on page two, and it says that no bowler shall be permitted to bowl underarm (page is shown with the rule on it, it reads "No Bowler may deliver the ball underarm) and that's what Jeffry Howth is out there talking to them about, it is not in the Australian Benson & Heges World Series cup rules because the administrators didn't put it in. I hope they put it in by tomorrow morning, otherwise, there will be a lot of criticism for what was a disgraceful performance out there today.
The other thing is that, the reason it all happened, in my opinion, is that the captain got his sums wrong. Now from over number 42, he was saying in the commentary box that he made a nonsense of it, and that he was gonna be in trouble having Lillee bowl the 50th over, which was the ideal thing to do; you must have your best bowler bowl the 50th over. And Lillee Marsh and Greg Chappel and Hughes were there counting on their fingers trying to work out who should bowl 46 47 48 49 and 50. As it turned out, the sums were done so badly that Trevor Chappell was left to bowl the 50th over and that's how it all happened, it was panic station and then, when Mckitney had to hit a six off the last ball, just to tie, mind you, not to win, just to tie, the panic became real, and they made certain that New Zealand couldn't tie the match.
