You will represent a fringe squad player for either England or Australia, and you must earn the right to be called up to the first team to participate in the prestigious Ashes series. Choose your cricketer on signup, or you will be assigned a random one. If anyone comes up with another valid fringe cricketer, I will consider allowing it. Games will be 2v2 doubles.

Blitzkrieg Frank and loutil - our player will be James Pattison. Why ?????? A - He is a Victorian not some pussy from N.S.W. B - If Pattison doesn't fire we will get slaughted by the POMS. most important player on the australian side .Trent Bridge in 30 mins from now bring it on!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I thought about forcing round 2 to appropriate maps (cricket, classic london, etc), but I thought the tournament would be less likely to fill if I did that.
We'll take the last spot (Graham Onions) if it's still up for grabs.

Thanks and enjoy the exciting conclusion of the 1st (RL) test tomorrow!
Thanks!
I'm expecting England to have it wrapped up by lunch.
Broad edges a ball to 1st slip on a pitch with little spin. Well Mr Umpire how the hell did it get there if it didn't hit the edge. Us Aussies not blaming Broad but seriously that Umpire so blattantly obvious that edge we could hear it all the way back in OZ!!!!!!! Bring on LORDS about time they dumped Cowan and Starc too.
LOL and now a batting collapse to cost 4th test. Unreal. We had 1st test if no lunch break we would have made those last few runs, 2nd test we were smashed, 3rd test rain stopped the win, 4th test middle order choked. Score should be Aussie's 3 Poms 1 but alas Poms 3 Aussies 0. Well u did have the better team from the start. Why the hell did we pick 5 openers for has me stuffed and swapping the batting order every innings is rubbish too.
Starc isnt much cop either. Big Tim to replace Finn for England
