Re: The Cricket Thread
...actually no. It is the England & Wales Cricket Team(commonly shortened to England Cricket Team)
You can check out your beloved Wikipedia if you would like it confirmed
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/England...l_cricket_team
It is the England and Wales Cricket Board that governs the sport, whereby players from England and Wales are selected (and sometimes South Africa).

Re: The Cricket Thread
You know what. Aussies seem to think we get wound up by those comments, but the reality is, the Aussies are more wound up by the fact that we have this selection policy, especially since we smashed them on their own home turf last year.
Of course, those Aussies are too dumb to realise that it was Australia that had the same policy many years ago when they were in the doldrums

Re: The Cricket Thread
Is he a british citizen or do they allow Irish citizens to play for England - the same way as they can serve in the military?

8 for 319, Pakistan's run rate has soared to 2.75! 
Predicting a lead of 150.
*edit*
9 for 319, maybe not!
