From that moment on my relationship with Smith became very frosty,

Boney the snowman, was a crazy, whacked-out guy, with tattooed skin and a goofy grin, and he liked to get real high. There must have been some acid in the soda that he had, 'cause when he went and drank it, it screwed him up real bad. He led them to the psycho ward, right to the dear old doc. And when they asked him what was wrong he told them 'suck my cock.

Various ways have been suggested to counter him, ... such as batting out of the crease, standing on off stump, or even taking a chance by having a go at him. But attacking him is very difficult when he bowls as he did at Lord's. We have all worked very hard this week and there are various new plans, areas to work on and shots to play.

Cricket has captured the imagination of the nation, this if fantastic, beyond a dream. When England players win at any sport, the fans are the best in the world.

We can't go anywhere without people wishing us luck. It's great to know that the nation will be right behind us when we take on the Aussies.

I'm baffled by the international standard of cricket
