Fair play Murali getting 800. Dodgy action, but Joe Frazier had one of the wickedest left hooks boxing has ever seen (ask Ali) due to a deformed/injured/peculiar left elbow. Today retired a master of spin bowling.

Cricket is becoming a sell out with the popularity of Twenty20. Test cricket is where its at, like LCAB says, complete game.
Each to their own though, I see on TV today thousands of the French and Spanish watching people riding bicycles. BYCYCLES FFS!

Depends on what car. Done it in a train and it only took a few hours.

I'm guessing with all this cricket talk it must be summer in England. I can stand maybe 1/2 hour of cricket before I get bored.

This is more my excuse, seriously hanging out for the premier league to kick off again!
