Yes at last super spinner Ashley Giles is ready to take on the Aussies. What joy he brings to all genuine cricket fans in the land as he twirls away whole heartedly with that, ever so slightly, gormless expression on his face. Personally I can't wait to see how a fully fit Ashley is going to outbowl Shane Warne, Monty Panesar, Stuart MacGill etc. So clap hands all you channel 4 cynics and give Ashley the round of applause he deserves. The REAL master is back. Rise to your feet as one and welcome him back into the Test arena.

I'm tempted just to say "whatever" but any 'genuine fan' recognises Giles for what he is and knows true talent when they see it (Panesar)
If Ashley takes 15 wickets in the series I will make a video of myself sauteeing my testicles in olive oil and black bean sauce and then eating them on a bed of rice, which I will then auction on eBay, the proceeds of which I will donate to the Ashley Giles "Save Crap Cricketers" Memorial Fund.
If Ashley takes 15 wickets, my testicles will be sauteed in the manner described above.
If Ashley takes less than 15 wickets, his testicles will be sauteed in the manner described above and the proceeds of the video auction will be donated to the Dave Pastry "Building a New Deck" Memorial Fund.
Oh alright, perhaps I should have said; "Mr Giles, that celebrated international standard cricketer, has recently returned to his natural habitat; Test Cricket." Not a hint of homoeroticism to be seen!
