Cricket-loving Aussie darts thrower Damon Heta reckons discretion is the better part of valour as he's decided against any flamboyant Ashes-themed walk-on antics that might get boisterous English crowds on his back at the world championships.
The popular Perth showman, known for his theatrical entrances to the oche, delighted in winding up the world matchplay crowd in Blackpool two years ago during the Ashes in full Aussie cricket kit, complete with bat and baggy green, and, naturally, got right royally jeered, even if good-naturedly.
But "The Heat" was in much more sober mood before his fine 3-1 first-round win over Irishman Steve Lennon, evidently feeling a boozed-up crowd at London's Alexandra Palace might not have taken as kindly to being reminded of England's current Ashes plight Down Under.
