I wonder if they'll still be playing by the time I get home from work?

Oh, I just sent a couple of Aussie mates a totally blank e-mail.

No subject, no content.

Just me saying nothing in fact. :D

All out for 268...

It says volumes about the current side, when their star bowler (who was left out of the second test for being shite in the first) is the highest scoring batsman of the innings.
Cricket is not only an entertainment, it is a craft. As far as batting is concerned, courage is a requirement. Over the years players of the calibre of Bill Lawry, John Edrich and Sunil Gavaskar batted stubbornly on pitches of this sort - playing late, letting as many deliveries as possible pass by and putting a high price on their wickets. Although their batting was seldom attractive, it conserved wickets until the pitch settled down and the bowlers lost their sting. Then even the middle-order men could score a few runs.

Suffice it to say that none of their successors summoned the skill needed to reproduce their feats. Among them, Phillip Hughes committed a basic error by playing across the line. Chris Tremlett's delivery breached a poorly constructed defence unworthy of a Test opener, a breed in short supply by the look of things. Later, Steven Smith played an equally loose stroke, poking at a ball better left alone. Spirit alone is not enough.

Almost an hour in on day two and England are 78-1.

They've managed to avoid the follow-on. Phew! :)
