No, I am not using the proper fixtures, I am just making them up as I go along. That is why I am asking people's opinions on who they want England to play after the Charity Shield!

Ian Botham: Well a terrific and comfortable win for England there. I mean those Stars XI boys had no chance! Freddie Flintoff was the key man for me today, and in the last couple of moments he has been named man-of-the-match! Congratulations Freddie! We hope to talk to him in the middle soon. Anyway all in all, it was a walkover for the four manned bowling attack of Anderson, Broad, Kirtley and Flintoff. This is how the dreadful Stars XI scorecard looks............
As you can see, not very happy reading for the Stars XI boys there, and to lose by 69 runs off 9.1 overs when the England side posted 125 off 9.2 overs it is a very pathetic total. As I was saying before Andrew Flintoff was man-of-the-match, and we can go live to him now, and he is talking to Geoffrey Boycott.
GB: So Freddie, great innings there and three wickets to round your day off, pleased?
AF: Yeah, obviously we didn't know how to play the innings really as it was the first ever Ten/10 match ever. I was really pleased with both my batting and bowling and I hope that I can keep in this good-form.
GB: Yes, you were in good touch today, have your injury problems finally stopped?
AF: Haha Yeah, I don't really know, I hope that they don't come back and that I have an injury-free summer of cricket especially after all of the operations I have had!
GB: Yes I hope so too. It's been great talking to you Freddie and it gives me great pleasure to award you as the Oxfam Man-Of-The-Match.
AF: Thank you.
GB: Now, it's back to Beefy!
Innings Round-Up
Ian Botham: Hello and welcome back!
Yes, as always Freddie Flintoff is doing the business for England! Lets take a look at his "wickets" pitch-map.
Yes, Freddie dismissed Shaun Udal, Ashley Giles and Andy Caddick with some great balls! My favourite was the one where he dismissed Andy Caddick with the perfect yorker! However, I remember that Ashley Giles was extremely disappointed when he was caught in the slips, and there is a possibility that the ball didn't even touch the bat! Lets hope that "snicko" can clear this up for us!
Oh yes, snicko said out! And that shows that Steve Bucknor can actually make correct desisions! Well that's all that we've got time for today! I hope you enjoyed today's match and another edition of Innings Round-Up!
