    Tassie isn't really Australia though is it.. I imagine the place is like New Zealand with better cricketers.. Climate wise its like England sending Australia to the Lake District or Wales for a hit before the Ashes..

    I've seen about 9 minutes of Doolan, and on first impressions surely he has to be ahead of blokes like Khawaja and Hughes? Looks predatory. Root keeping wicket, very interesting

    Warne on Ponting

    I don't have a problem with all this.. Sport has become so boring with it's regurgitated sound bytes and plastic personalities.. it's nice to get an insight into the chemistry of what's going on in the team..I think Warne has been making a lot of his comments on his column in the Telegraph? Well...

    Poms' Diana Ross-Style Demands

    I think it shows that nobody can accuse England of not being completely professional.. They'll cop a pasting about it thats for sure though.. Foods in England, very very heavy for mine.. What happened to the days of having a smoke and a coffee after your innings? Half of these foods I haven't...

    I want to attempt a world record

    Nice, I had a tour de force playing scrabble last year, Foragers on a triple word. Not bad for a novice. The charity I have chosen seem very keen to help me out, so I will come back to you all with some definites regarding place and time.. This is definitely fitness dependent too and I have a...

    I want to attempt a world record

    Well i'll go by the same standards as the chap who set the record.. Neil should know the details as he was there., I imagine you wouldn't be allowed enough time to sit down at all outside the five minute breaks.. Apparently the guy was broken at the end..

    I want to attempt a world record

    I will do the thing wherever there is most interest, and I obviously need someone to provide a good venue. At the moment Taunton in Somerset is looking the most likely, but I'm flexible with that. I'll set a date once I've confirmed a venue that wants to have me around

    I want to attempt a world record

    Ok it looks most likely I will have Orbis on board. They seem very willing to help me out with the organization and are a screwed on bunch, so I thought why not? I will aim to raise 1000 pounds for them ORBIS | Saving Sight, Blindness Prevention & Treatment, Help the Blind

    I want to attempt a world record

    Will tentatively plan for 7th July at my old school, King's in Taunton, Somerset...

    I want to attempt a world record

    I've done 8 hours before.. I have a Trott like hunger for measured batting, without the necessary talent. You have to put yourself under some sort of adversity if you want to raise money anyway

    I want to attempt a world record

    Fantastic, well it would be amazing if you could help. If this gets a lot of support I am going to start working on my fitness right away. Can't say I'm in great nick . I'm terrified of facing your floaters again.. I imagine the best time to do it is next British summer. I guess the main...

    I want to attempt a world record

    Haha, depends where lads who are willing to support me are based. I'll try and support something in that locality.. If not, I know of a few township clubs in Port Elizabeth who are doing good work and would be grateful for the support. I've previously done some stuff for Orbis who run a mobile...

    I want to attempt a world record

    Although I've always wanted to do this, I was inspired by watching them all of last night :)

    I want to attempt a world record

    Judging by Facebook it'll be in England as I'm getting more support for it.. Does it count if you face a bowling machine? That will mean I can go with a proposal to an indoor school with fewer people needing to be on board.. I also need a worthy charity to support, any suggestions? If none come...

    I want to attempt a world record

    Okay I've had this idea for a while. I want to break the world record for net batting, I hear this was done earlier this year at the Loughborough school.. Anyone who has met me knows I enjoy batting and batting, and while not gifted with bags of talent, and being bowled by one of Goughy's 13...

    In the event Cook's back gives out

    Who would/should be captain? Despite batting all day yesterday he looked very stiff between the wickets, and surely a whole day in the middle wouldn't have done him much good.

    *Official* Pakistan v South Africa in UAE

    What a muppet, slaps the ball straight to point and calls for a new pair of gloves instead of walking off.. I guess if he is such a limited batsman he needs all the time in the middle he can get

    Fair enough, he'll need some divine intervention to run through England tomorrow

    Loving how the Aussie commentators are pronouncing Moises Henriques.. Lets just take the I out and call him Moses? Also how a crane is described as a "big erection" Carberry looking gun here, surely has to get the nod over Root at the top of the order Also they need to take into account how we...
