Very Very quick, I was hoping to see the end after work. It'll be over well before I get home.
How well is Cummins going? 100+ wickets at 20 in the last two years. Those are Malcolm Marshall-like numbers. He is as accurate as McGrath and around 8 km/hr quicker.
Touch wood, his body stays together.

Apologies if this offends anyone
I got a good laugh earlier today. It was the green garden bin day so i was in the yard raking up some leaves and listening to the cricket on my little pocket radio.
Alison Mitchell a pommy commentator was the calling the game and she said "Warner has gone for a pull in front of the ladies stand.
I hope he doesn't get in too much trouble

Really disappointing Test series V NZ. Expected much more of a contest. Their batting never seemed to get going or couldn't sustain any impetus. There's no way they can be world No.2 although a far better team at home, like everyone else.
Wagner is a real fighter but, with the very green Ferguson out injured, their attack has no-one who can barely bowl over 135 kmh. It's not all about pace, but when Australia has 5 bowlers (when all available) who can manage 145 kmh bowling with swing and seam, it's very hard to be a serious competitor.
It was so one-sided I lost interest quite a while back.

Afghanistan or Bangladesh would've been more competitive. Have said that, are quicks are outstanding, and the Goat goes ok too.
The size of the ground is a *smile* take. Rope must be in 20m all around the ground. No surprise people are making *smile* loads of runs - barely need to get it off the square. Making a mockery of the sport.
The best one was when John Arlott said of New Zealand fast bowler Bob Cunis that his name was "neither one thing nor the other".
Ah yes, the infamous "The batsmen's Holding the bowlers Willey"
Pretty sure it was Arlott who described an inside edge on air as "a lovely French ****".
Edit: Was actually Norman Blundell on the ABC with "lucky French *smile*". Looking for a way out, he asked Lindsay Hassett what he thought, but Hassett was trying not to laugh and stayed silent. At the end of the session he said "As for that lucky shot in which the ball was supposed to be driven to the off side and finished up going for four at fine leg - I think Norman described it perfectly."

Another good one from Johnners
"Neil Harvey's at slip, with his legs wide apart, waiting for a tickle."
