Sport Today

From: John Dennis <jdennis>

Well, let me see:

there were NO aussies catching the ball on the bounce,
NO catches behind where the ball wasn't hit,
No dodgy umpiring decisions - at least in Aussie's favour,
Taylor lost the toss again,
The pitch was flat and glassy (as predicted)

But ...

The Windies could still only bat for a little more than 80 overs.

Who is to blame this time.  Perhaps (shock horror) apart from Lara and
Richardson the rest of them are not test class.

Still ... there is a long time to go (unless it is over in three days again
:-) and the game is still up for grabs.  It is now up to Taylor, Slater,
Boon and the Waughs to take advantage of the situation.

    I don't know about anyone else, but *I* was a bit worried at 3/200 or
    whatever the score was when I retired for the evening :-)   To find that
    the WI had been rolled for 265 came as a nice surprise later in the
    morning (despite feelings of stupidity at having not hung around for the
    now seemingly inevitible collapse).

    Our turn tonight :-)
