Yes Ica, it is a sad day for the English when they can
read their newspapers and see more concerning Charles'
ball plays than the English Cricket teams and prefer to have
comments from their supposed well-informed cricket writers
and EX-champions than from the well-informed and articulate
noters in Australia. So much for the English cricket sense
of fair play thankfully this chalice of hope for the world
which involves the true meaning of cricket has finally passed
from the old and decrepit establishment of England to the
invigorating and thriving environs of Australia.
As for the game on Sunday, excellent fielding and batting
from two well drilled teams with the Australian top team
finally realising that there is competition from the young
hawks of the future. This new found spirit and realization
that their places are in jeopardy should hopefully bring
some of the "old" campaigners back to their best form for
the remaining tests.
Also a bit of whingeing from the English captain concerning
the two Australian teams competing. Well if the English had
any confidence then they would not be so worried about competing
against a 2nd's team. Also considering they only beat ZImb once I
think they have themselves to blame. Also I must query whether
it's the competition they don't like or the lack of money they
will receive from the one day competition since they considered
it a foregone conclusion that they would get at least the losers
cheque for the finals. Pretty pathetic for that old English
chin up tradition but then leaving repair unaccessible for
extended periods of time does not show much either.

for it. 4 overs 1/15. Hope Beavan and Ponting put them to the sword.

The latest I hear is 4/159 - they're peaking too early

| 465.8 | McGrath has 3 wickets | GLADYS::CRAVEN | Give Me My Makita Mac Back | Tue Jan 17 1995 05:52 | 10 |
| Yes Colin,
we beat 'em at both forms of 'rugger' too. Not only that but they
refuse to play us at soccer cos we'd drill 'em there too. They don't
seem too keen to play the Scots much at soccer either now, do they?
Why did they get rid of those matches they used to have in May between
the home countries?
Ica
p.s. latest is 5/175, heaps of overs left (17)

| 465.9 | Seriously, I think they were sick beating us !! | KIRKTN::CDOUDIE | Perfect '9' or bust... | Tue Jan 17 1995 06:06 | 9 |
| Cos they sent up there toughest fans fur the 'Rous Cup', which they put
up and we won, tried to start a bit of bovver an' the Glesga Polis just
huckled them right out of Hampden. Their excuse was they didn't know
you could get Doc Martens in a size 13 and they had not prepared
properly for the ensuing battle. A police report stated that some of the
policemen had a harder time stopping their weans fighting in the bath,
(alledgedly of course).
