Hey mods, please unban Ikki as he now has to have Graeme Swann as his avatar for a month :)

Got_Spin - you best hope your boys win in Sydney as I am lining up your avatar for the next year as we speak.

Ripper needs in this test:
Aus to win
4 centuries to Zero (would take 3 to null the point tbh)
A highest Runscorer
A highest wicket taker
Siddle to take a ****load of wickets
The series to be levelled

Mine was going to be a simple England will still hold the urn come January 6th. Winner picks the loser's avatar until the loser's team either a) overtakes the other in the ICC rankings or b) regains the Ashes, whichever is sooner.
Not liking this time stipulation tbh.

Fickle ****.

As I'm a nice chap I'll throw you a mercy stipulation - your avatar is mine for 6 months from the end of the SCG Test if Australia knock us out of the World Cup. If you beat us in the final, you get your avatar back immediately.
Hehe, good to see you picked that up.

And if neither of these happen it's as per the original rankings/ashes thing (i.e. England get bailed out in the group stage by the Netherlands)

Yeah ok, no harm in it i suppose. Just don't make it anyhing braveheart related and i won't be worried.

Kudos to Ikki, didn't even realise he was back and he leaves me a message asking for his avatar

Also left Got_Spin his. Good times these.

First avatar will be pretty unoriginal.
