Young Ricky Ponting had a bit of a problem with the drink. Got him into trouble a couple of times. Symo also had the incident before the infamous Bangladesh game.

True, we may even be able to get Joey Johns a game as he did play a 20/20 match

 

[Ikki]

Andrew Symonds likes the drink.

 

[vic_orthdox]

Rod Marsh for keeper. He was the previous holder of the record that Boonie beat.

 

[HeathDavisSpeed]

Jesse Ryder would be a solid option for number four in the order.

 

[vic_orthdox]

Steve Harmison. Supposedly drank Flintoff under the table after England won the Ashes.

1. Reed
2. Fields
3. Boon
4. Walters
5. Ryder
6. Botham
7. Flintoff
8. Marsh (wk)
9. Hughes
10. Peel
11. Harmison (not sure about his drinking exploits, but surely Olly Reed could have bowled that first ball of the Ashes straighter).

 

[SirBloody Idiot]

Pomersbach - apparantly pissed on Wayne Clark's car after being dropped. And was suspended three or four times last year.

 

[Mister Wright]

Wright for 12th man. Has been left stranded in or around the R.E. or Regatta many nights.

No discussion of this nature is complete without mention of a few of Lord Hawke's celebrated "Ale Cans" -- Ulyett, Emmett, Bates and Peel.

Incidentally, I saw about an hour ago some rare footage of a portly Bobby Peel, in later life, doing a spot of coaching with George Herbert.

Warne much.

Haha quality call.

 

[Xuhaib]

Haha quality call.

Was pretty obvious TBH.

 

[Lillian Thomson]

How come the two openers are actors and the rest are cricketers? Assuming anyone is allowed in then the King of the Famous Drunks is footballer George Best followed closely by snooker player Alex Higgins. (They might not be well known in all Countries.)

 

[Smudge]

Chris Pringle to carry the drinks. And finish them before he got out to the middle.
