England Ashes Team Thread

[w3lshrugby]

Well, what else could I say?

Broad Yorkshire Spinning Stalwart is what you want. The Fred Trueman of Spin, that's me.

Although my OD average and performances are better than my FC, I can still keep an end tidy and get some wickets out of it. Time to step up to the big occasion..... and try to outdrink some Aussies in the bar afterwards

 

[w3lshrugby]

You never know burnsy! No idea who is in the frame for the first test on Wednesday...but we'll see. Two spinners perhaps? Certainly will be a tough battle for the spinners berth with several of us vying for a place (or two).

 

[Burnsy1]

I would go with you and Spin before myself tbh. Not only as you both post in here more regularly than I do but You're both doing better and you're both Leggies giving you somewhat of an advantage.

Either way I can quite happily carry the drinks for the lads. Sambucas all around?

 

[w3lshrugby]

That'd do nicely burnsy - especially if we're in a precarious situation at the time when you did drinks!

Make mine a flaming

Nice to see I'm in the squad, although it wasn't really much of a surprise. Let's bash some Aussie heads in!

Crikey, I might actually get the opportunity to replicate Botham's heroics of 81.

 

[Dr. Pepper]

I'd prefer to play the earlier matches if I get a game because I'll be gone before the end.

 

[w3lshrugby]

Gone. Where?

 

[Burnsy1]

A&E perhaps......Don't cry if it hits you

No you won't! :boxing

 

[Burnsy1]

just out of interest if we are playing in the first test(or any test for that matter) do we still play for our club teams aswell or not. If so can those who aren't picked in the starting 11 play for their clubs. I'll still be team drinks carrier eitherway.

 

[Dr. Pepper]

Gone. Where?

It'll be Summer holidays mate!

 

[w3lshrugby]

I know that! That's why I asked where? Where ya headin' off on your holiday this summer?
