Australian feared castle ghost

Apparently at least one cricketer on Australian's team was frightened afterall. From Fox Sports:

ENGLAND bowler Darren Gough kept spirits high as he made a light-hearted dig at Shane Watson's fear of ghosts during last night's tri-series cricket match at the Riverside Ground. The Australian allrounder came in for plenty of ridicule this week after it was revealed he slept on the floor of teammate Brett Lee's room because he was spooked by tales of a ghost haunting the 600-year-old Lumley Castle, where the Australian team stayed. Towards the end of Australia's innings, Gough made a point of getting in the face of Watson and shaking his arms in the air, ghost-like, and wiggling head while yelling boo. Watson did not respond to Gough's antics and later copped ridicule from crowd members, who put white sheets over their heads in some more friendly jibes.
England's spooky strategy paid off against Bangladesh too.
