I only needed to see the England line up to know that we'd lose! Weak bowling line-up. Too many "all rounders" in the English sense of the expression ie not quite good enough as batsmen or bowlers. Surprised we got that close, really.

Another game in which I was a spectator at. I remember the yobbos around me were giving Allan MULLALLY some stick while he was fielding on the boundary and he reacted

i don't think it's quite as much as six inches outside leg stump, but it should have been given not out
