i was adding the 2 bowlers option to the list of batsmen :p it wasn't an either/or

don't like stella much, and i was mainly just too tired tbf
Blimey Uvo, considering you think Bell is such a spud you're certainly wanting to hedge your bets here8-)

But I've always been a reckless fella so you're on. Conditions are now that complicated I don't even know what I'm betting on though.........can you clarify??

But whoever looses keeps their dodgy Avatar from the end of the England series until day 1 of the Australian one.

Any batsman except Clarke or any two proper bowlers combined will average more than spud bell for the away ashes series.

But I reckon two of our bowlers individually will average more than bell, I'd want better than even odds for it though

Is someone gonna bet against me or what? Simple winner takes it all, duration until the series down under starts

I've never done an avatar bet but am willing to do one if there are any takers from the crims with a bet worth taking.

No bets - just a forfeit.

I have one of the longest-standing avatars in CW history - it has never been changed since the day I found this place more than a decade ago. I'm happy to put it on the line in a straight bet on the Ashes series - if England lose the series or even draw it, then I will replace it for 3 months with a picture of Brad Cheaty-Hodge (spit).

Now for the big one - if Australia so much as win a single test match, then for the rest of the series (and who knows how long afterwards) I'll let a certain a certain member of the genus anatidae out of the cupboard for a run around just to see if he can behave.

<muffled quack> Liar!!!

I will consent to a month-long avatar of Steve Harmison if England don't concede over 500 in any innings at home.

Should they fail, you get Xavier Doherty.
