ECB: Right on the case

The ECB have placed some press ads ahead of the domestic season's Twenty20 Cup, which starts in June. Great idea, given that events in the Caribbean are still buzzing around in the minds of the new generation of cricket followers.

So which members of England's World Cup winning squad who'll be available to play did the ECB marketing team select to get the kids excited? Lumb? Kieswetter? Wright? Yardy? Bopara?

The names on today's Observer ad: Symonds, Gibbs, Vaas.

Good job, boys...

That ad is the stuff of nightmares, isn't it...

There was an article by Barney Ronay http://tinyurl.com/nicksnightie which contained an image of Knight, a nightie and a Dyson - one step beyond a nightmare.
