		<description><![CDATA[Oh I&#039;d face them without protection, Jrod, regardless of my self-admitted failings as a batsman. I have too much dignity to wear a helmet or a thigh pad. In fact, I have done: I faced a couple of overs from Hoggard once with only pads, gloves and a box. Sure I got hit a couple of times on the thigh that left bruises, but isn&#039;t that part of the fun? And as for a helmet? Come on, it&#039;s not as if O&#039;Brien is going to be aiming at your head.

You&#039;re being a wuss. Much more of this and you&#039;ll be appearing in a y-fronts commercial.

		<description><![CDATA[@Paddy - dont&#039; joke, it&#039;s absolutely true Australian men under the age of forty are a bunch of crybabies and girls underpants. 

When I was a nipper, we used to use rolled up barbed wire for a ball, an old live artillery shell for a bat and a rabid wombat for the stumps. Anyone who flinched would be flogged and have to eat  the discarded 80 over balls for the next week. That is if the rabid wombat didn&#039;t first bite off their testicles as they shuffled back. There was a very good chance the wombat would connect as a rolled up leaf from a poison Gympie Gympie tree was used as a box and everyone knows that rabid wombats love poison Gympie Gympie trees. If a batsman was out,  the fielders would spit on each other, and then punch each other in the left eye like real men. None of this namby pamby cuddling and prancing about.]]></description>
