Here I found the rest:

What's the difference between Nasser Hussain and Saddam Hussein?
Saddam Hussein has more victories.

How dominant is Australia's No. 1 fast bowler?
Well, most people in England think their opening batsman's real name is Atherton b McGrath.

What would Mark Waugh be if he were an English batsman?
In form.

What's the outstanding feature of England's pace attack?
Andy Caddick's ears.

What was England's best chance of a win in the second Test at Adelaide Oval?
Telling the Aussies the match is at the MCG

Heard about the new Ashes trophy?
Yes, if England loses another series they're going to keep the bails and burn the players instead.

How bad is the English batting?
Well, the selectors are thinking of moving "Extras" up the batting order.

Why are the England players demanding increased match payments?
Someone has let on that Ashes Tests sometimes go to a fourth day.

What is the height of optimism?
An English batsman applying sunscreen.

What does Alan Mullally put in his hands to make sure the next ball almost always takes a wicket?
A bat.

What would Glen McGrath be if he were an Englishman?
An all-rounder.

What is the English version of a hat-trick?
Three runs in three balls.

Why don't English fielders need pre-tour travel injections?
Because they never catch anything

What do you call an Englishman with 100 runs against his name?
A bowler.

What was the most proficient form of footwork displayed by English batsmen?
The walk back to the pavilion.

Who has the easiest job in the English team?
The guy who removes the red ball marks from the bats

What advantage do Nasser Hussain, Mark Ramprakash, Uzman Afzaal, AlexTudor and Alan Mullally have over the rest of their team-mates?
At least they can say they're not really English

Sachin Tendulkar and Vinod Kambli have been very close friends since childhood. They used to do all things together, e.g., both started going to school together, both passed their SSC exams together (with identical marks), both started playing cricket together, both were selected to the Bombay Ranji cricket team together, both went to college together, and both ended up joining the Indian cricket team together. Finally, both got engaged (to different girls) together and both decided to get married on the same day.

After that, both their wives get pregnant on the same day and the doctor gives the same delivery date for both. On the delivery date, Kambli's wife gives birth to a boy while Sachin's wife gives birth to twins! Kambli gets confused. He goes to Sachin and says, "How come? We have been doing the same things all our life. How come I get a son and you get twins?" When Sachin replies, "Boost is the secret of my energy", Kapil appears behind them and adds, "Our energy".
