Is there anyone in their line up you'd pay good money to watch bat?

It depends on your view of cricket. Sometimes watching a patient and well thought out innings is extremely enjoyable. People like Chanderpaul and Langer are excellent to watch as they are so consistent and really grind down bowlers. I think most people who have a keen interest in cricket aren't too worried about being constantly excited by the play but would appreciate and brilliant put together knock.

Watching Kallis, to me, is very interesting because he is so f***ing good at what he does.

I agree to a certain extent Chappers but I absolutely detest watching Graeme Smith bat. Far too much bottom hand for me and he looks like he is a right handed batsman trying to bat left handed. As a leftie myself I like to think your average leftie looks better than your average right handed batsman and Smith undoes all that good work. My tip is that Ryan will have him in his back pocket this summer.

I've travelled this old world of ours from Barnsley to Peru
I've had sunshine in the arctic and a swim in Tinbuktu
I've seen unicorns in Burma and a Yetti in Nepal
And I've danced with ten foot pygmies in a Montezuma hall
I've met the King of China and a working Yorkshire miner
But I've never met a nice South African.

No he's never met a nice South African
And that's not bloody surprising man
'Cause we're a bunch of arrogant ****s
Who hate black people

I once got served in Woolies aften less than four week's wait
I had lunch with Rowan Atkinson when he paid and wasn't late
I know a public swimming bath where they don't piss in the pool
I know a guy who got a job straight after leaving school
I've met a normal merman and a fairly modest German
But I've never met a nice South African.

No he's never met a nice South African
And that's not bloody surprising man
'Cause we're a bunch of talentless murderers
Who smell like baboons

I've had a close encounter of the twenty-second kind
That's when an alien spaceship disappears up your behind
I got directory enquiries after less than forty rings
I've even heard a decent song by Paul McCartney's Wings
I've seen a flying pig in a quite convincing wig
But I've never met a nice South African.

No he's never met a nice South African
And that's not bloody surprising man
'Cause we're a bunch of ignorant loudmouths
With no sense of humour - ha ha

I've met the Loch Ness monster and he looks like Fred Astaire
At the BBC in London he's the chief commissionaire
I know a place in Glasgow which is rife with daffodillies
I met a man in Katmandu who claimed to have two willies
I've had a nice pot noodle but I've never had a poodle
And I've never met a nice South African.

No he's never met a nice South African
And that's not bloody surprising man
Because we've never met one either
Except for Breyten Breytenbach and he's emigrated to Paris.

Yes he's quite a nice South African
And he's hardly ever killed anyone
And he's not smelly at all.
That's why they put him prison.

Mark POOGASH is an excellent name

Mark Pougach [sp] is a Sussex lad.

I read an interview with him in a Sunday supplement, and his 'Earliest Sporting Memory' was 'being taken to the Goldstone to watch the Albion' by his old man.
