Remember AC Milan was started as a Football + Cricket club...lol.

What country or countries do you support?
Also what cricket clubs do you support?

I'm new to the sport, just started following and learning about it
this summer, so go easy with me.

Thanks. :bri:

i support england and Essex in cricket. Weird considering i support italy and Milan in football.

I just came back from a dinner with parents and saw Justin Langer, Andy Bichel and Andy Caddick at a restaurant in Chelmsford. I even got a smile out of Justin langer as he knew i recognised him!

and we let an Irishman play for us too, unti lwe realised he wasnt actually very good :D

Supporting England in any sport is difficult as we seemed predestined to heroic failure, as you have a choice i'd suggest supporting New Zealand as they are a small country who punch above their weight, or if you like to support winners just back the aussies ;)

Monty was the 1st player I ever knew of...i have been a
pseudo-Anglophile since I was 4yo (I grew up with tons of English
tv shows).

I like NZ for Rugby, Tana Umaga was the 1st player I knew of
and seeing The Haka in the 1999 RWC in the UK was just so cool.
I also support Wellington Hurricanes in Super 14.

I thought about the Aussies for Cricket and/or Rugby because
my wife has worked for an Australian company for the last
5 yrs and has had plenty of Aussie bosses.

New Zealand is the cricket team I follow. Can be very inconsistent though, brilliant one day, absolutely awful the next day. Prefer one day games and 20-20, they allow more for the big hits.
