Default How do you pretend to be an Aussie cricketer?

You run out to the middle, you turn around and you walk right back to the grandstand.

60 for 10?

That one's for Dave.

Thanks Lara - a very ordinary effort from the Aussies.

I hope that Dave is enjoying the professional job that the Pommies have done .

Absolutely dismal.

At $1000 a run, you'd think it would be incentive to make a century.

Outplayed. Outclassed.

Imagine if they'd played like that at home - at the MCG maybe - the fans'd be demanding a refund.

That performance gives even the Black Caps hope!

They get $1000 a run??? I would make them swim home - if they dare return.

Impressed with Root and our bowlers, even the catches have stuck.

Dave.

Dave, I hope that you enjoyed your well-earned victory in getting the Ashes back .

We (writing as a semi-Aussie) need to learn from this. ODIs are fine as fun but don't get me started on T20s (shudders).

I hope that we can work out how to build an innings as batsmen and work out a plan as bowlers - that way we might be able to challenge you in the next Ashes series.

Well done to the English team.

I hope that bought a smile to your face Dave.

What a seesaw of a tournament.

What I don't need to see is players from both sides crying on camera about the result. It's a game - Man Up!

Dave.

I was just reading that Michael Clark will retire. Pity.
They're under a lot of pressure to perform I imagine.
28 centuries and 27 half-centuries
When Ponting retired at least there was Clark once he got his life in order. Can't imagine who'll replace him now.
