Which just shows the stupidity of including one-off Tests.

Let me assure you, we were bottom of the Test Championship in 1989, too, behind SL, who were far worse in 1989 than Zim were in 1999.

Most of the time, England were pretty good in the 1990s, there was no more than the odd hopeless series.

when we won that series against sa in 98 i though it was the most amazing performance id ever seen, from a bunch of nobodys
Bull****, Butcher, Atherton, Hussain, Stewart, Thorpe, Ramprakash, Cork, Gough, Fraser certainly weren't a bunch of nobodies, they were high-class cricketers all.
