Looking forward to the World Cup as the English pundits all rev the Nation up that England are going to win and so many actually believe they have a chance.

I love it when the country unites and cheers on a national team. I'd watch tiddlywinks if England were doing well at it.

I find it amusing the unrealistic hullaballoo and hysteria that comes as part and parcel of it.

Some cricket is massivley dull, thats why they sell Alcohol all day AND let you take your own booze in!!!!
but EVERY BALL on this series has been great!
Can't beat a bit of unrealistic hullabaloo and hysteria. This world and life have enough things to be sad about and argue over, so I enjoy everything that gets the country united and lets everyone smile together Sport is one of those things!
SO STOP SUPPORTING THE AUSSIES!!!!!

Okay, but for me, it's all about an escape.
Watching cricket IS boring if you're not a fan. Christ, I've watched some football matches where I can't believe I'd just wasted 90 minutes of my life.
Any sport has boring bits, and no-one will say that 20/20 or one day cricket is boring, because it simply isn't. My Dad, who is a hardened Arsenal supporter, and traditional cricket hater has watched every match this series, without me even being there - never thought I'd see that!
I love cricket because I play it, and I will admit that the old fashioned tests can be dull in places, but I'm a huge motor racing fan, and in three grand prix this season, I've fallen asleep!
Come on the England!

F1 is perfect for falling asleep to just the noise of the cars and the commentating does it for me... I always have at least one F1 race on my Sky+ and play it if I am really struggling to sleep. Really works for me
I'm not a huge cricket fan at all normally but I love going to the the big games as they are awesome all day piss ups! just quality day out with your mates
This series is amazing though, just loving it Aussies are such amazing competitors but also VERY gallant losers. Respect
