Useless donkeys. We destroy our test team to get a load of slogging all-rounders,

Hilarious.

Sorry?

Your support for England cricket is about as stellar as it is for Arsenal. :hehe:

That was top reverse jinxing, I'll have you know. I even sacrificed an Aussie backpacker I lured in with a jar of Vegemite.

Agreed. Mind you, on a related note, I'd love to know how an umpire as bad as Dharmasena got the World Cup final. he got about 50% of his big decisions right yesterday. That's pretty písspoor.

He never looks convinced when he's giving any decision :hehe:

Exactly. He seems to make decisions by tossing a mental coin rather than through any conviction.

Haven't seen The Times today.

I have to admit, I'd be fuming if it had happened to us.

I'd have loved it if we'd done it to the Convicts, but I do feel a but bad for the Kiwis. They've lost to the hosts twice on the trot.

If we're gonna have these joint CWCs then they should change where the final is as it goes round the cycle. Why should Aus and Ind host finals but not NZ etc.

I obviously hate the Jinnahite secessionist traitors, but it would be funny to watch Ind play a final in Lahore.

Anyway, I'm glad some appreciated my heroic reverse-jinxing. We were dead and buried with two over to go until I made my post.

But we have a CWC decided on who slogged the most boundaries in the game and the Wimbledon's men's final was won by someone who lost 2 sets properly and only won the tie-breaks. Silly idea.

Yeah but Federer was basically cheating with that serve which was way too good.
