All you need to know is that it's the greatest game in the world.....and that the Aussies are by far the best at it. :D

Is cricket another one of those games the english invented that everyone beats them at?

I love cricket, its one of the best games hehe, sorry not many people share my passion for cricket over here, now that you've mention let me see. With the Pakistanis out of the game for good that leaves us with four main teams i.e Australia, Srilanka, South Africa and India. South Africa is the weakest so lets forget them too. The real competition is gonna be between the Aussies and Lankans, the Indians can probably "blackmail" the ICC to reach the finals maybe, or some thing or the other cause the ICC IS now in India's pocket since that's the team generating the most revenue ......

Close - so very close - but no cigar. Your use of the word "everyone" implies that both Kenya and Bangladesh can beat Emgland - this is just not true - is it fellas ;)

Yet another one of those games you mean? :D

Look for OZ to go unbeaten in this series. After the first couple of floggings look for the doctors' certificates to start coming out like they did last year. :D :D

I usre hope Australia wins a lot of tosses and bats first - otherwise there could be some very short test matches. I really can't see this tour breaking even from a financial standpoint.

Oooh, 2250 posts - am I a gold dragon yet?
