Serie A or Ligue 1?

How Barça managed to make a meal out of what looked like a runaway title charge in a matter of a month, I'll never understand.

"there would have been no highlights" 😂

10 years later, rising from the ashes of its valiant martyr, stands tall an Australian cricketing culture whose biggest victory is not the spoils of war like the retained urn or medallions won but a philosophy that every parent can proudly encourage their little one to look upto.

Phil sacrificed himself in a battle, so Australia could win the war against its worst enemy - itself.

Taunts turned to gestures.
Bravado paved way for vulnerability.
Humility replaced the hostility.

Australia viewed cricket differently, and cricket reciprocated kindly.

Philip's spirit, as Clarke urged would indeed act as a custodian, whispering, guiding, and ultimately ushering Australian cricket - to an era that was no longer dictated by ruthless battles on the pitch, but defined by the camaraderie that went beyond the boundary ropes.

Nice try, imposter

Is there a student discount @mrrickygervais.bsky.social?
