Ha! The way the NZ Black Caps are playing at the moment - I can't believe these guys are the best we've got!

I think its your turn now. Our team under Ponting is crap. But watch out for the Southern Stars, the best womens cricket team you will see.

Cheers,

I don't think we (England) have much of a chance, but I'm happy with winning the Ashes down under!

Just you wait until 2020 when we've rebuilt.

Not a cricket fan, here, but my inlaws are pretty much cricket mad. What can I say? I married into a Sri Lankan family. And the game (match?) between Canada and Sri Lanka is on, which I find amusing. I had no idea until today that Canada had a cricket team. Canada is NOT a cricket country. Hockey, yes. Cricket, no.

And what's even funnier about the Canadian cricket team is that there's only one Canadian on the team, and even he spent a huge chunk of his life living in Australia, so he barely counts. The rest of the team is mainly Asian - Sri Lankan, Indian, Pakistani, Afghan, and coached by a Sri Lankan.

So. The game has been playing in the living room all day. I've seen all of about a minute or two of it - when the Canadian national anthem played.

Because, yes, I'm Canadian.

I'd love for us to win but lets face it, we're England, we won't! lol

Debating whether to watch the highlights tonight and really annoy my other half because the rugby is on tomorrow too
