Bob Hawke is really enjoying England's misery in the cricket.
If you have been following the Ashes you will know that England are having a torrid time Down Under. The series is already lost and it looks like the fifth and final Test is going the Australian's way too, setting them up for a whitewash 5-0 win. At the close of play this morning, former Australia Prime Minister Bob Hawke was in the Sydney crowd. The 84-year-old is often seen at the cricket and egged on by a load of lads dressed as legendary commentator Richie Benaud, Hawke downed a pint in a very impressive 10 seconds. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dxyEJREzlr0 It's not the first time he has done this either. Last year he pulled a similar trick when Australia were playing India and according to the Daily Mail, Hawke once drank a yard of ale in 11 seconds back in the 1950s. We just hope we are even heading out for a pint when we hit 84, never mind necking one like this.Most Viewed in sport
