Be Nice .... despite being one of the worst captains in world cricket his batting record speaks for itself and I think you'll find his post match interview as gracious as it gets. Bon Voyage Punter

Fackkit, every minute of sporting agony is worth savouring ... I was bowling some spin to the kids over the hols, I'm expecting a call from the selectors ... ho ho ho!
