Zainub and Statto, you are the trivia Gods. I shall now allow each of you to pose me a question, but I shall leave you with this to ponder overnight -

Can you select an England team in alphabetical order, whereby each player is in his correct place in the side - ie ABCDE are batsmen, F is a keeper etc etc?
Byeeee

That is not the correct answer.
Hint: According to Steve Waugh he "Borders on being obsessive compulsive. Knows every Test wicket he's ever taken, how the batsman was out and what number victim they were. Eats the same breakfast each morning on tour. He places his two fried eggs on separate pieces of white toast before making sure the yolk is perfectly positioned in the middle, before trimming the overhanging egg white edges with surgical precision.The contents are then cut into quarters after being doused with a three-second barrage of salt. It's a real shame to see him eat it such is the masterpiece he creates."

Zainub - you've got to tell me who that is - I'm curious!
