Perhaps we could add which PMs picked their own teams, and which just let the ACB/ Cricket Australia do it for them220.239.6.72 (talk) 05:46, 18 November 2007 (UTC)Reply

I have some photos from the 2005 match, including the eerie "weather bomb" (Seriously, meteorologists called it that) cloudfront that stopped the match.

Bob Hawke edit

Bob Hawke getting his glasses smashed has absolutely squat to do with the PM XI. It was a Press v Parliamentarians game (played all the time) and a totally different series of games to the games played against touring sides. If nobody objects I propose deleting that section. It belongs possibly in the Hawke page - not here. Tigerman2005 (talk) 12:09, 21 December 2011 (UTC)Reply

Extremely belated response - I agree and have gone ahead and removed this section. The given source only describes the match as "Parliamentarians v Press", while Cricket Archive doesn't include it in their list of PM's XI matches. Jellyman (talk) 10:28, 27 April 2016 (UTC)Reply
