English suffer ‘nervous nineties’

Monkey Woods is an Englishman who takes himself and English cricket lightly. Here is an excerpt from his spoof “England Cricket Team Suffers From Bad Grammar In Mumbai”.

Just last week, in the Stanford Allstar Superseries in Antigua, they were humbled-out for a marginally better 99, and it now seems they are experiencing the 'Nervous Nineties', a condition that usually applies to a batsman when he starts to get within a whiff of his century.

How I wish more such Englishmen come out of the woods and drown the voices of the other self-important writers.
