[Cricket] A perfect Summer for England

Well as yesterday's match ended in just over 3 days, with the Windies setting england a 2nd innings total of 1 run needed for the whitewash, which took all of 3 balls to win, England cemented their place as 2nd nation in the test rankings, but not only that, have now won 9 out of the last 10 tests, with the 10th being the draw on the lifeless wicket at St Johns, Antigua.

It also signals 7 wins in a row this summer, and with Steve Harmison sparkling, at the top of the rankings, and guys like Strauss, Bell, Flintoff, Jones, Hoggard, Vaughan, Trescothick, Key, Thorpe etc playing the cricket of their lives, it is a very good summer to be an england test match fan

not with that sort of attitude anyway, If you can't believe in some of the players we have atm, I don't know who you can believe in, the Aussies are only human, and I honestly believe we'll push them all the way at least
