ENGLAND 23,435 AUSTRALIA 0

Posted Feb 12th 2007, 10:00am by Reiss Malone

Cricket - Who cares about the poxy Ashes? No one important, that's who. England yesterday won the universally acclaimed 'most important trophy in the world ever in any sport'. At cricket. They did it by beating the Australians for the third time in a row, not bad going from a team who seemed hell-bent on creating a new world record for straight defeats at the hands of the same opposition. Delighted skipper Burly Stonemason lifted the Commonwealth Bank trophy after a rain-affected 34-run triumph. Hugging the super-size silverware, Burly insisted the team wants coach Dennis Tench to stay. Burly said: "Dennis took a lot of knocks but kept backing us. It is great to repay his faith and he can take as much joy out of this as the lads." After two and a half months of disaster and humiliation, England produced one of their greatest-ever turnarounds to end the tour with four straight victories. A tearful Burly added: "One person we ought to thank is Dennis. He has been our coach for a long time and he's taken the side forward. You've seen the improvement since he's been with us. Every player who's played under Dennis has learned something and improved his game. The coach comes into press conferences when we've lost and he always comes down the pub and assures us we're his special mates and that we're definitely, definitely going round to his house for Christmas dinner. Christmas can be a very lonely time and it's only fair that Dennis gets his round in."

isporty wants to know who's coming round your house for Christmas dinner.., oh, no, apparently we don't want to know that. What we want to know is ... what's the greatest ever comeback that you or your team has ever been part of. Post your comments below and if you've got any video footage please feel free to upload it as there's nothing I like more than settling down in front of the computer with a nice cup of tea and watching your attempts at greatness.
