    Personally I'm saddened by the fact I missed the days of shooting natives, drinking gin and playing cricket in the name of His Majesty.

    That probably wouldn't hurt, they do appear to be very poorly paid in comparison to other test playing nations. How much of that is because Pakistan is unable to host series at home do you think, or do you believe the Pakistani board would be just as stingy even if it was making extra revenue from the gate and TV deals?

    That's a really good question. It could well be that that's the case but they'd still get gate takings from their "home" games in Dubai or Qatar or whereever it is. Bit of a point to ponder while I'm at work tonight bored ****less.

    I think the venue plays a big part in how much you can bank from a home game. We have footy clubs here in Melbourne who are tied to the indoor stadium and they make significantly less at the gate than teams who play at the MCG or inter state who own their own stadiums, or who have better deals with host stadiums.

    Same. It wasn't bad work, if you could get it. These days the locals tend to bring AK47's instead of short stabbing spears and cowhide shields. Damned unsporting if you ask me.

    I don't think Ive ever asked, but how does one go about living on a sweet ass boat down by the river? Step one must be obtaining a boat.
