    Amazing atmosphere when he was batting in the final test.

    Also at the back end of the second innings when he was bowling. A couple of his bowls weren't that good and his brother wasn't very happy. Very good.

    Amazing to think how much crickets changed whilst hes been playing. From a sport that wasn't very professional to the mung bean curry eating players of today.

    Also good to see that his Mum Finally watched him play Cricket. apparently she never even used to watch him live on TV

    There will be a massive gap in that dressing room but i think purely batting its him leaving before been pushed.

    Serious question now - do you drink Gold Label or Special Brew? If you do then stop trying to type after consuming half a dozen of your tipple

    Bit odd not naming the person you're referring to, even if it is obvious.

    I thought it was Obvious but it was Sachin Tendulkar's last match for India and he played at his home ground in Mumbai

    Why is it obvious? Don't assume everyone knows what you do. I had no idea what you were talking about!

    http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/cr...ricket-teams-dietary-requirements-leaked.html

    ''There will be no junk food for England during the Ashes after a leaked 82-page document revealed their dietary needs in Australia to be more Heston Blumenthal than McDonald’s.
    Andy Flower’s famous attention to detail is evident in an extensive dossier outlining England’s requirements at all of the five Ashes venues, with a demand for food that is not only healthy but of almost Michelin-star quality.
    Piri-Piri breaded tofu with tomato salsa, pumpkin seed and goji berry breakfast bars and mungbean curry with spinach are among the meals England’s nutrionist Chris Rosimus has requested in a document that was leaked to the Australian media.''
