***Official*** Bangladesh in England

IIRC GW has a degree from Yale. If you think getting one of those is a cakewalk then lotsa luck in trying one.

Nepotism only carries one so far, it didn't get Prince William into Oxbridge or Harry into any uni.

Yea, money gets you the rest of the way. The point is a lot of qualifications are simply hard work memory tests, they're not a great indicator of intelligence you make them out to be.

As for England whoever has put money on them getting over 475 is looking good...

from what the teachers said at school he was pretty intelligent

There's a lot of speculation as to whether Dubya actually earned his degree, though.

Maybe I'm reading too much Michael Moore.

Wow.

There aren't many more appropriate analogies than those involving clubs and baby seals.

Don't think I'm alone in not being too concerned if England lose another and we get an hour or two of Flintoff...

 

[FaaipDeOiad]

Bangladesh clearly have two bowlers capable of playing test cricket and two that are far from such. Good work from Mortaza and Rafique to pick up a couple, at least.

Trescothick outwitted by Rafique, six runs in the red (of a double ton ).

Bell's test average sits at a healthy 120 currently.

Needs to get to 70* to overtake Pietersen's ODI average.

I am pretty disappointed by the declaration to be honest...I wanted to see Flintoff get stuck in..the kids in the crowd were calling for Flintoff...

so what we may have is England only needing to take a few wickets tomorrow to win this one....I think somewhere in this situation, some consideration could be taken for the people who have shelled out money to see some cricket tomorrow. As Hussain repeatedly say, cricketers are in the entertainment business

 

[superkingdave]

yup, i'd guess they'll probably get just enough overs in tomorrow to avoid having to refund any ticket money.
