At the Oval the ground was packed, people sitting on the grass, cheering everything; just like it will be next weekend I guess. |
Don't stroke 'em, don't tickle 'em, just give 'em a ruddy good belt |
I am here to propose a toast to sportswriters. It's up to you whether you stand up or not. |
I need nine wickets from this match, and you buggers had better start drawing straws to see who I don't get. |
It's a cause for concern in terms of indifference or risk-taking, |
The definitive volume on the finest bloody fast bowler that ever drew breath |
There was enormous excitement around the country just as there is now, |
Use every weapon within the rules and stretch the rules to breaking point, I say. |
