Cricket bat is weapon of choice for Aussie robbers
A cricket bat wielding gang in western Sydney has stuck the same shop four times in the last year. During this sequence the gang has looted so much that poor Jasim Al Saedy, the shop owner, is now considering shutting down.
My suggestion is that he hires Shane Warne as a security man. The next time the gang storm in Warney can toss a few at them, giving old Jasim time to call the cops as the robbers spend the next 20 minutes playing and missing at the zooter and the flipper.

At least we know it wasn't Alastair Cook - he's never wielded a bat in anger.
They could always hire VVS to use his bat to restore everything to its proper place - he does use his bat like a wand after all.

gee, I bet the ENglish X1 wished they had this guy in their team today at Hamilton, ey?? He's probably available, but only for a very small window of opp.
I am kinda guessing here a bit, but for all the hoo haa over the last weeks from English bloggers in regard to the un-niceness of AU cricketers, their terrible rudeness and meaness and all that,.. well.. I am just guessing here, but I kind of suspect that just a tad, a teensy bit of that awfulness ( ie. the desire to win ) wouldn't go astray for the ENG ODI X1 right now. I could be wrong , of course..There are some schools of thought that aver vigorously that English cricket fans are all at sea unless they are losing relentlessly.. not me, of course, I don't believe that.

this bloke has since been identified as an English tourist from Hull trying to gather together some spare change to get to NZ and join the blagging gagging Barmy Army against those ruthless and despicable NZers.
Life can be so cruel.
