Why is that?

Watch the Brits play and you get the impression that it's not professional cricketers but the Royal Family themselves playing a leisurely round of cricket. The English lads don't dive, they hardly ever work up a sweat, every-time the ball approaches the boundary a ball boy might as well throw the ball back in cos the English are no where near, what about the great Andrew Strauss(?); well he would rather sip on tea and crumpets as opposed to stand and field, besides who on earth screams out loud and motivates sagging demoralized bowlers? Naa Strauss would rather stay put at point and whisper sweet nothings to himself. No doubt's the Brits wield the willow with flair, but will someone please remind them that they need to be able to throw the cherry as well?
Seriously the Brits play like a bunch of spoilt brats and it's frustrating as a spectator cos they are loaded with talent, but don't possess an ounce of gumption!!!

MCL! How rude! Please don't diss our lads. We have had some right characters in our time. Give me a night out with Mr Botham and Mr Flintoff. I don't think we'd be sipping tea and eating crumpets.

Yup it's a tough job, but someone's gotta do it. Once ur done with the oldies, please give the current lot a hand too.
Now this is what needs to be done, start with Peterson and then Colingwood, the biggest culprits of all. Line em up, bend them over, spread their legs, and then............SMACK!!! Give em a few har(r)d raps on their back-sides. Maybe that will shock em into action!!!

Ohhh MCL! Bend them over and spread their legs? That's my night out you've just described

Gosh BM did you have something to do with this? We spoke bout Collingwood last time round, but I didn't expect him to be smacked right out of the team!!!
And what about the rest of ur lads? Strauss(?)... Did someone slip some Viagra into his tea o what? And Broad, for once he wasn't the punching bag on the field.
Either which way...what a game! Mabrook!!!

MCL! We came up with the goods, did we not! They must have read your previous post Way to go lads!
I thought we'd lost it for sure earlier then

Astonishing! One of the most astonishing games of cricket I've seen this week! Broad has pulled it off! A huge swipe outside off stump from Morkel, and Prior and Broad were up immediately! They knew! Morkel knew! England win by six runs!

Taken from a commentry on Twitter.

Broad was always one of my favourites, I missed him during the Test matches.
