        ... and Indians, Pakistanis, Sri Lankans .... Really, I would have thought that other countries would have taken to a game with phrases like "A fine tickle between the legs", "Bowling a maiden over" and my particular favourite: "The bowler's Holding. The batsman's Willy." Absolute class:laugh:

              Yeah, those Brits :rolleyes: It's funny how imperialism works. In my country, Denmark, which lies next to England, only separated by a little water, Cricket is next to non-existent. We know what it is, but no one plays it. In India on the other hand, on the other side of the globe, it's popular as hell - they've learned it from their former "prison guards". -- modified at 8:12 Tuesday 5th December, 2006

                        You're right. I did (and didn't notice it). Jonners will be most upset with me.

                          You honestly thought we'd let them get away with a draw?? Warney just needed a little extra pinapple on his lunchtime pizza and it was all good again.

                            While watching the first test a female reporter was interviewing one of the commentators and he came out with this "This morning I got three fingers right in the crack" The look on the womans face was priceless

                              Yeah it was an amazing day. Very enjoyable. Now the English know that even if they score 550+ in the first innings they still cant even hope for a draw.

                                    We knew that already. The team choice wasn't very inspired, but still at least one of my local team players shone (Collingwood).
