trains, strpiey shirts and yuvraj

After a fairly large day yesterday, drinks wise, I decided quite logically that the morning session wasn’t for me today.

I arrived just as lunch finished, having watched the first session on the telly.

My highlight of the day occurred before I arrived at the game, when two young ladies, with ample breastages, played a game on the train where they tried to throw paper into each others cleavage.

Unfortunately this game only lasted a 2020 amount of time, not the full 5 days.

The first two things I noticed at the ground were the exceptionally large number of stripey shirts in the members, and Yuvraj being a grumpy muppet on the ground.

Yuvraj is probably my favourite cricketer at the moment, but it was poor form, he is usually the best Indian fielder but today he was more like Sourav. The Indian intensity was still hopeless for most of the day, until Kartik came out, he seemed to give them some energy.

Kumble may be a good leader, but his field positions are pretty ugly. Deep points for no reasons, and every field that Harbhajan ever had was cr@p. Roy & Pup milked him like two newborns stuck on each breast.

Australia still struggled with the pitch a little, every player except Ponting got a start, but on this wicket when you’re in your still not in.

Did that make sense?

It is hilarious that a drop in pitch can still play the exact same way as the G wicket did 30 years ago. Is Michael J Fox the curator of these wickets?

Twas a pretty good day of test cricket today, 7 wickets, 320 runs, and Roy getting bowled off a no ball and then taking a single.

Not bad.

Hayden was the only batsmen to look really at home all day, but jacques and clarke both did well.

Khan bowled sexy as hell when it was reverse swinging. Kumble and Singh both bowled ok, but never really threatened.

Must admit by tea my hangover was starting to wear me down, but I soldiered on, the website is called cricket with balls, not cricket with cup cakes.

India now only need 499 runs to win the match, they should have that by tea on day 5.

Wonder if I’ll wake up in time to see the morning session…www.cricketwithballs.com "the hooking & pulling specialists"
