Hawkes a ripper bloke, he was last of the politically correct polli's. He was a peoples man he was an Aussie to the core.

Just do not bounce him when he bats.  ;) ;) For those old enough to remember the episode.

He bowled some great bouncers, about a foot in front of his leading leg

The worst thing about only five matches. No midweek cricket :'(

Since I was a little boy I've been watching Tuesday or Wednesday one day cricket, such a shame

Classic Hawkey, was probabl pissed hence why it hit him. Mind you if he was sober he would have ducked

Watson out for the 2nd, 3rd and 4th ODIs, so Dan Christian has been called up into the squad for 3rd and 4th ODIs

Him and Callum Ferguson have sort of become the forgotten men, I hope they get a run soon, Christian hopefully this series

Ringo

Interesting they called up Christian and not Cutting - Has Cutting upset the selectors or something,

Cutting's more of a bowling all rounder, bit like Faulkner, whereas Christian is more of a like-for-like swap with Watson

Yeah, DC is a batting all rounder like Watto, slightly more like-for-like... that and DC's been in better form.
