England's dominance has Ponting crying

Australian ODI and Test match captain Ricky Ponting has shed a customary tear after Andrew Strauss suggested England now held the bragging rights over their great enemy following 3 consecutive one-day victories over Ponting's men. Ponting has hit back at those claims by saying;
"If that’s what you think take a look at the head to heads and see who has got bragging rights. ODI, Tests and Twenty20. Tell me who has got the bragging rights?"
Pricky may be statistically right, but in recent times I'm afraid England win hands down. Ashes, ICC World Twenty20, and now just one more win away from claiming the Natwest series. Do the math Rick.

Perhaps 2 Ashes defeats in 2 away series' has got our Ricky a bit uptight, which is of course, great to see. His arrogance, freakishly hairy arms, and generally unlikeable personality means that England fans jump at the opportunity to lay into him whenever they can. With just a few months before the Ashes begins down under, the cracks are starting to widen in a once invincible Australian frame.

'mon the pomms!
