Number one team at one day? Pah!

What chance of a series white wash here? OK, so it's one day, not the [i]real[/i] game, but let's revel in it for a while...!
😉
Getting overexcited, much? 😉

It's been a long day! Still (sort of!) working. Cricket has been a relief.
By the way, is it OK to take critical business decisions after a large bottle of Leffe Blonde and a rather lovely Chimay Bleu?
Who cares when we have humiliated the canary yellow wearing whingeing aussies.......
The biggest hurdle in achieving a series whitewash and no1 status is not the Aussies but the current summer which looks likely to wipeout the next game at least.
Good stuff though, didn't even appear to have to try to beat the no1 team today.
PS. you missed out Rolf Harris, or have we adopted him as one of our own?
PS. you missed out Rolf Harris,
Only so much you can cram in to a title...!
"That's not canary yellow, that's Australian gold, you bastard!!"
looks like Norwich City though
anyway, England are so rarely any good at anything, that when they are, we have to enjoy it. Let's face it, Italy did us a favour last Sunday. Can you imagine how many goals Spain would have scored against England tonight? 😯
Is Bell one of the most pleasing batsmen to watch from any era?
Possibly yes...glad he's started scoring regular though, I was sick of seeing him "play well for his 30 odd"....

FTFY

Not sure. Certainly on good form right now, but he's no Sobers, Richards or Gower, IMHO.
Mmm, not sure I agree, his straight driving and cutting are imperious. Never saw Sobers, Richards in full flow was frightening, but not as classical as Bell, a real childhood hero though. Gower was left handed and they always look more stylish so he doesn't count!
It's happening again. 🙂
120-7 off 30 overs in a 32 over game....
It would have been 5-0 if it wasn't for the rain! Whodathunkit, eh? Australia saved by the rain!
Wooooo!

You may enjoy this article. Especially the comments.
Oh noes! A little spot or two of rain is being reported....
Add to the list Skippy the Kangeroo, Bob Hawke, Rolf Harris....
Your boys took one hell of a beating (again) 🙂
