I don't think so. Def best of three, though.

I always thought it was load of knackers.... blooming silly piece of gimicky nonsense...... but having seen the flashing stumps and bails in action during this WC, they do seem to add something positive to the game, so I'll hold my hands up and admit to being wrong.

If we'd kept him in jail longer, he'd be England qualified by now.

Not as cheeky as you think, Durham - I was owning up to a mistake, myself.

I think that I successfully used irony for the first time in my life - and it's not noticed.......

I see that Glenda McGrath is predicting a 5-0 whitewash for Australia in the next ashes series

Idiot!

anyone who thinks that a 5 match series in England won't contain at least one rain affected draw, needs putting up against an elephant and shooting
