Caption Contest

Our pictures, your words

Winning caption:
Michael Clarke's look up at the commentary box only confirms that all his best players are sitting in it. (Jack Bland, South Africa)

Cover image of <i>When Freddie Became Jesus</i>

Win this book

The winner of this contest gets a copy of When Freddie Became Jesus by Jarrod Kimber - an account of the 2009 Ashes; though not the kind of Ashes book that bacon-and-egg tie-wearing MCC members quote.
