Doesn't the victim of the assault normally have to press charges? If he does, there's a pretty easy ABH case there.

It goes both ways. When asked do you want to press charges, considering you tried to bottle someone at the time would you really go ahead with it?

The people seem to prefer Scots or Scottish. As anyone with an English accent who once made the mistake of calling a Scot Scotch will well know.

Don't get me wrong, if I was North of the wall my blood would be scotch!

And leave Peppa and George without a father, you heartless beast.
The increasingly impressive Bairstow, and Jason Roy smashed the Windiest in the last ODI.
Jason Ball took a beating though, 1 for 94 from 10. Australia will have noticed.

As long as whoever goes has plenty of catching practice. This summer they have been useless, so many dropped catches across all formats and in Oz there will be fewer chances.

I see that Joe Root and Stuart Broad are not allowed to go to Amsterdam for Jos Butler's stag do. That sounds a bit of a miscalculation to me. They should have the highest profile players there to ensure that they get followed about the whole time by press photographers waiting for any bad behaviour. That would ensure some lovely cultural visits to the Rijksmuseum, the Van Gogh museum, the Anne Frank House, and a canal trip.

They have chosen not to go... but probably reading between the lines Straus has probably warned them off.

I agree.

But, on the other hand, they won't be drinking alcohol, as they'll be spending most of their time in the coffee shops.

Just spotted a pic on FB of this chap, Nigel "Chopper" Hazel, who was the professional player at Strathmore CC for many years; great bloke.
