No , not the insect version , the bat and ball , leather-on-willow game played by two teams of eleven players.

The game formerly ruled by Australia - but , alas , no more .....

Sorry Aussies , but 16 years at the top is enough for any team. Time for a change , methinks ...

Well done , South Africa.

Save a bit of that for your own team ,they got done by this lowly Aussie side so how good are they?

That 16 year reign may never be wiped from the books ...ever, hail the team of the century,go Aussies!

chirp, chirp, chirp

we'll be back...

we've had... what? three series losses out of the last 27!! not a bad record....

well done to South Africa...

Well done, the RSA.

Now if NZ could just learn to play, maybe we would see a few more good games...

Nah - the differance is , that after so much practice , we have learned to be gracious in defeat...

I have no doubt that Aussie will rise to the top of the cricket world again , but its nice to see someone else there for a while too.

AUS are still ranked NUMERO UNO in the world,RSA have to win the last test still to take the mantle,we retain the title if they dont.

Freddy Mercury might have liked it in the freckle but he did at least sing our song correctly.

WE ARE THE CHAMPIONS ...OF THE WORLD!"

Egg on the face anyone

Hot off the press Arron,Australia won the third test 1/2 an hour ago thus retaining their title of


CHAMPIONS ...OF THE WORLD!"

Yeah, but you guys cheat:

Yeah I remember those plastic boxes with holes in them.
As Lloyd said when he was recalling the incident:
"They were completely unfit for the job they werent meant to perform"
He also described the aftermath of the Thompson delivery thus:
" There was more of my scrotum on the outside of the box than there was on the inside"

God the eyes are watering just thinking about it!!!
Peter.

Pray tell where does the cheating come into it?


As far as Thommo...."god bless him"

Not our fault that Clive Lloyd needed a milk crate, not a box...
