Hands up who gives a toss that Nathan Bracken has really girlie hair?


2nd ODI part 2:

England's innings started oddly like Australia's - fast start, then slowing down after the first couple of wickets fell.

Watson was looking fine fine fine (and for the first time all summer I heard a commentator say "brilliant bowling from Nathan hauritz" - it was quite an achievement for him).

After a while, I got very worried ... they were looking so good.

I was dreading the ribbing I would get at work tomorrow morning.

Thoughts of moving back to Australia crossed my mind at one point.

And then there was Bracken ... striding around with flowing hair like Adonis.

We fought back. We won.

I inflated my giant Aussie flag hand.

Thoughts of running naked through the park crossed my mind at one point.

I'm already to go to work and being bloody obnoxious ... it's long overdue, I can tell you.

We're 2-0 up and I'm a happy little vegemite.

The only thing that marrs my joy is that those b**tards have our little urn.

Bracken is such a good bowler...why isn't he in the test squad? I always thought he was very accurate and has a great line n length...even if he does have girlie hair! :P

He played in the T20 world cup and was, frankly, awful ... that may have gone against him in the tests.

I just want to hold him down and shave his head.
