Isn't it time that England gave up playing cricket?

The spin on the news here of the cricket would be one that Shane Warne would be jealous of.
To be honest, I think that they should just give the Ashes to Australia, and never ask for them back.
Never use a cat's arse to hold a tea-towel.

duffy4Well they tryed to get cricket going in Canada some time back. The players were mostly ice hockey players and baseball players. One of the bowlers hit a batsman in the head and the hockey guys all dropped the gloves and got into a big fist fight (as ice hockey players tend to do) and they had to call the match.
I guess for a gentleman's game you have to find enough gentleman to field a couple of teams. Thats why they don't play cricket in USA and Canada.

HarrisCongrats to all my Ausie friends on recent ashes victory. I was looking at the pictures and Fletcher looked like the guy who was about to get fired.
On a second thought Fletcher IS the guy who is about to get fired

BushchookBit like the poms bowling a "wide" on the second last ball that Gilchrist had to break the World record fastest test century eh ?
The hunting imperative was part of every man's soul; some denied or suppressed it, others diverted it into less blatantly violent avenues of expression, wielding clubs on the golf course or racquets on the court, substituting a little white ball for the prey of flesh and blood.

Not unexpected from an aussie, but a dark day in sporting history, none-the-less.
