I forgot about the Davis Cup. The Domestic cricket is a good standard but lacks the atmosphere and big stakes of such events as the AFL Finals , Rugby World Cup and Davis Cup.
Chuffed to have seen 3 flag wins in my lifetime but still greedy for more.

Fradam's game was quite good too. I got to captain the side and they bowlers and fieldsman made me look great. We bowled them out for 101 and we're 2/89 in reply.

For all of you that didn't show up you missed a great day
Do I look like the tech?

Frado,
Cool. We'll chuck your name in the hat to fill Steve Waugh's spot in a few months then as well. 8)

Well I think I'm the obvious choice as captain. 100% winning record. Ponting doesn't have that. The job is mine

Ah, but can you sink piss like Ponting can? Being captain of Australia isn't about how good you are or what your win/loss ratio is - it's about who can score the highest bar-tab. Don't believe me - just ask Ian Chappell.

Got me there Piedys. Ponting is in an elite class when it comes to sinking cans. I can't compete with him, he's too good.
