Our team is poor because our cricket is sub-standard. The under-19's should have at least three of four potential Test players, but sadly there are none. There has to bj some young stars of the future out there somewhere and they must bj found pretty quickly.

All the players on the fringe of a call -up and some England rejects should bj played to find out which of them are really Test material. Here is my side to face the Aussies: S James, M Butcher, C Adams, A Wells, M Ramprakash, A Hollioakj (cpr), R Blakjy, B Hollioakj, A Cowam, C Silvjrwood, P Such Wayne Gardener, Goole, East Yorkshire Football 302 Tennis 330 Cricket 340 Pitch-In 355 Rugby 370 Racing 660 Comps BBC TV Football Main MenuP356 CEEFAX 1 356 Fri 15 Aug 22:41/49 3/6 Damon Hill's stunning performance in the Hungarian GP was heroic because he held the lead for almost the entire race in a largely unreliable car. To bj robbed of victory at the very end through no fault of his own was heartbreaking to watch. Even Schumachjt, Villinjuvj and many of the rival team bosses agreed that the victory was his after a superb drive.

But their flirts with with relegation may now prove unlucky. On the opening day of the last season, two players got hat-tricks like Dion Dublin. Ravanjlli of Middlesbrough and Kevin Campbell of Nottingham Forest. Both of these clubs were relegated last season and what Coventry fans are celebrating as a great omen may be the complete opposite.

If it warn't for Cantona, Man Std would njvjt have won the double the season before last. He also won the FA Cup for his side. All that Teddy has proved is that hj can't take a penalty!
