that was bloddy brilliant! 31-7!!!  :soapy tit wank:  :soapy tit wank: all out for 79 though. Gillespie innings made me laugh though, and flintoffs bowling to brett lee, talk about body line.

You'd rather not see a Swindon boy who plays for a West Country team do well for England?! You're odd as well as stupid Johno

I know you are but that's illogical. Because we're local sides it means the fans get on well, Gloucestershire and Somerset are not rivals.

No because cricket's not like that.

My favourite county side is Glos. The only other sides I like to see do well are Somerset (West Country) and Sussex (after their great Championship season in 2003. The sides I dislike are Yorkshire and Surrey a little bit.

Good to see Lewis do well, inter county rivalry goes out the window when its England, plus he's an ex Churchfields boy.

 An interesting question would be who was the last Wilts born man to play for England in a Test?.....My guess would be RNS Hobbs a leg spinner from Chippenham....another candidate would be Ken Palmer, who played one test in NZ as a late call up because he was playing there.

 Over to you Boeta...seems like an awful long time for it to be right .....the last Swindon born player to make an impact was Kevin Emery......who had one really successful season for Hampshire before fading into obscurity
