Cricket Look-a-likes: Paul Collingwood

_39227032_bjorkmann_ap300x300 After a poor week for the England team, things only got worse yesterday for St Paul of Collingwood's long-lost brother, Jonas Bjorkman. There I was sitting quietly in the calm after yet another great Australian victory (Robbie McEwen blazing up the blind side to steal the first sprint of Le Tour in Canterbury - I just love those men in lycra!), and out of the corner of my eye, I swear I thought Paul was wielding a racket down in SW19. Shock! Then I realised it was another loser.

Not a good time for the strawberry-blonds. Jonas lost out to the least-famous Scotsman of tennis - that'd be Andy's brother Jamie then. And England swept to a magnificent defeat on Saturday to what is virtually a scratch team from the West Indies.

It's hard to see how England can pull themselves out of the mire to face India in the One-day game. Maybe Paul and Jonas should swop trades?
