You have to remember with faith comes disappointment sometimes but then that makes the good moments even better when they do arrive.;)

I'm loving the Windies latest pick 'Cornwall', at 22 stone the heaviest international cricketer ! He can't move quick can catch a ball unfortunately...

There was of course the unforgettable Dwayne Leverock who took a stunning catch for Bermuda against India a few years ago.. But he was a slim 20 stone.

I think Pakistan want to win a lot more than England, they always up their game against us. We just seem happy to see them happy. Nice aren't we ? :)
