Synopsis:

One of the great rivalries in sport returns this summer, but what is it about a six-inch terracotta urn that en flames the passions of Poms and Aussies? Why do the English think that all Australians are alcoholic simpletons? Why do Australians think the English all have a stick up their backside? And why do they need (and needle) each other so much? In this humorous look at one of the truly great rivalries, written by The Times cricket blogger and a professional Australian bar-room pontificator, the grudges, sledges, heroes and villains are laid bare.
