The rollercoaster of the Ashes series continues with Engeeerland winning by 8 wickets, quite remarkable.
Forget the piddly Bay #13 at the MCG, Edgbaston was like Selhurst Park on a Saturday arvo. Unbelievable scenes with 25k+ baying for Mitchell Johnson's head and boy and oh boy did he cop it. Great fun.
Still all to play for and with my main man Jimmy missing in action it's gonna be close.
Stat of the day, in the pre 5 day world of 20.20 cricket, how many 6s did Sir D Bradman hit in his entire test career?
A mere 6!!!!, says it all really! As Boycott put it 'why on earth would you hit the ball in the air if it increases your chances in getting out?' Fair point Joeffrey.
I could not help but mention this stat (and the score for that matter) to our Aussie guests staying with us when Melissa turns round to me and says 'well I've got one better for you, the great Sir Don once came to our house for tea!'.
Just asked my Australian wife what the score is? This is way too much fun, long may it continue :)
Jogged in to office on a sunny day c.17kms in 4.45s. The 2nd highlight of the day.
