Down the wicket is uncompromising cricket opinion on all topics, regardless of governing bodies and the media. As a group of cricket enthusiasts and passionate about the games standards, we address the issues of cricket without bias, fear or favour; particularly those relating to the Australian team. Bureaucracy is the enemy; tradition and sportsmanship are virtues, and an open mind is a must! We openly encourage discussion, debate and opinion, because cricket is worth getting worked up about!
deepest sympathies to yourself and all contected Lango.
