The press ad, created by DLKW, features beer mats which ask the question, ‘Australia's best chance of drawing?' with the answer given as ‘Rolf Harris'.
The sentiment of the latest campaign follows the England Has It work. Other straplines have included ‘England has History, Australia has Previous', ‘We're English We Brew Beer. You're Australian, You Serve It', and ‘We've got beer in our blood. Australians have lemon juice in their hair'.
Yesterday England were bowled out for 332 in their first innings with all-rounder Andrew Flintoff, making his final test appearance, scoring only seven runs.
