When england won the fourth Ashes test in 2001 - something of a consolation prize - the BBC was keen to get reaction from a senior player. A researcher was briefed to 'get someone on the phone' and a call went through to the England party at their hotel
'Alec stewart' duly came on the line and was immediately patched through to interviewer Gary Richardson. "How are you Alec? It was a good way to finish" ventured Richardson.
"Yeah, it was tremendous," said an Aussie voice, clearly not that of the England keeper.
"What have England learned from the Ashes?" continued a nervous Richardson.
"That the Australia are a bloody good side" said 'Alec'.
The call was cut short
whats the difference between aussie and english rules?
