I've got an itch that I can't scratch that the US could get a result here.

Australia are an ageing team and I've heard that Warnie's mum has run out of diet pills. Add the over confidence of the Aussies and there's a turnover on the cards!!!

You never know what might happen - look at the upset in the FIFA WC final in 1966...

ROFL. Since when do USA play cricket anyway? :D

Boring fact for uncle Vaskez

The USA are (along with Canada) the worlds oldest international cricket team :D

No doubt someone like Mems can post the date of the very first international [img]graemlins/1ponder.gif[/img]

We may be over-confident, but we are justified, because we are GOOD!!! :D

That and the fact that New sheepland bleet the USA the other day. If they can do it we can ;)

Unfortunately the USA weren't able to "do a FIFA WC 1966" in this case... :( :D :(

Hey Donut - you are usually sharper than that. Did it slip your memory that Warnie has retired from international one day cricket? I guess it must have ;) .

Cricket -- the US -- who knew? I tried to grok the game when I was in London, and found it rather silly. Sorry. (I'd best get to running now.)

I'm suprised at you Davros. I meant that his mum running out of diet pills was the rason he had to retire.

I thought Australia looked a bit flat today. Loads of NB's and wides, dropped catches and Lehmann looks like a rolling potato when he runs. Ripe for the picking I'd say. I fancy the Enzedders to beat them.
