Apparently Australia are coming to England in the summer for an utterly pointless ODI series, which England somehow have to squeeze around their usual 7 test summer, a full India tour and the new T20 comp.

Saw Warne get his 20 000th Test wicket.

Perhaps you noticed us - we were the group of 8 Aussies behaving ourselves.....

Great times.
