If Brett Lee were a Ferrari ... No. There is no if. He is already the fastest in the world, equal with Shoaib Akhtar at a flicker above or below 100mph, and has the strike rate to be one of the greats. At the 2003 World Cup (during which he took a ferocious hat-trick against Kenya) Lee was a polished star, while Shoaib was a novelty act. It was the same in the 2004-05 VB Series - Lee's pace was blinding; Shoaib's was hamstrung. When Lee releases the throttle and begins that smooth acceleration, the spectator stays his drinking hand. The leaping, classical delivery may produce a devastating yorker, a devilish slower ball or a young-Donald outswinger. Add a dash of peroxide, a fruity vocabulary, a trademark jump for joy, a stylish bat, a streak of sadism when bowling at tailenders, a pop group (Six And Out), and an endearing dedication to a day job at a gentleman's outfitters, and you have the 21st century's first designer cricketer - not to mention a priceless pin-up boy. Australia just have to count the children in Brett Lee shirts to know his value, and Steve Waugh nurtured him well - the unruly incisor to McGrath's molar. It hasn't all been easy: Lee has struggled against accusations of throwing and stress fracture after stress fracture, and he had a strangely barren first Ashes series in 2001. Three years later he U-turned from ankle surgery, but was stuck in the pits of the dressing room as he ran drinks and sponges in nine consecutive Tests. Already he seems naked without the baggy green cap - and the world's best team seems a little less fearsome without him.

KILLED BY: A rock (lol) thrown by fans of the <a href="http://fumbbl.com/FUMBBL.php?page=team&op=view&team_id=84543">Forest Fools</a>, during a highly bloody match. The <a href="http://fumbbl.com/FUMBBL.php?page=team&op=view&team_id=84543">Forest Fools</a> are the toughest Wood Elves this coach has seen.
