on Australia. God I hate the smugness of messrs Warne, Waugh, and Gilchrist. Can someone give them a punch, and intorduce them to a new technical aid - a brick wall....

Would love to, but the fact is we are super sh.it at cricket. I turned off watching on Sunday as soon as Alec Stewart got out lbw. I knew what was coming. Less than 90 mins we were all out and lost. One more question, Ian Ward. Why? He is cack. I just hope the weather can save us from a 5-0 whitewash.

Ian Ward? Why?<br>Don't u realise he plays for Surrey....<br>And of course the heroics of our 1-day team -Gloucs who won 5 trophies in a row; number of players in the 1-day team: 0.<br>That's like having no Man Utd players playing for England.(Nice thought,though it is...)<br>

I see what you're saying. There must be a pre requisite of Surrey players in any England squad. Ian Ward chopped onto his stumps twice in the first test. I'm all for giving people a run, but he looks out of his depth. The only problem is who to bring in to stop the rot? Andrew Flintoff, Owais Shah, Jesus Christ, Moses?
