Duckworth Lewis is only used in one day matches mostly because it takes a further 5 days after a D/L decision for everyone to figure out what the hell just happened and why. The sport of cricket, or indeed the international membership of mensa, does not posses the necessary intellectual capacity to apply it to 5 day matches.

They?ll get one session in tomorrow which will be enough for England to bowl Australia out without having to bat again.


Pietersen finishing with bowling figures of 5 for 20 and the furrow between Ponting?s eyes reaching a critical point where it exceeds the external pressure of his head causing his entire noggin to collapse in on itself and form a singularity of seething rage a few inches above his shoulders.

So what is all this about Wareny being asked to return?? Is there not something about sqauds for these series, in that they must be picked before the start of the series and therefore limiting the players available? If not then there should be!!


I would love to see Warney back in action as he is a legend, but I cannot see it!

Warne's been out of 1st class cricket for 3 years. He wouldn't have the same skill or fitness. The publicity's good and I'm sure he's having fun teasing the media & England but he'll not play for Oz again. Why would the most successful Aussie spin bowler want to risk his reputation by playing at sub par himself and risking his reputation with the current, losing, side?

    • Well, they're back today. Something must have spooked them yesterday. And yes, like Angelina, my pigeons are also well turned out. They all wear the same uniform. I think they may be stock doves. As well as Mr and Mrs Woodpigeon I also get the collared doves.
    • they probably frequent the parks more in summer when there are more people around, dropping food etc.  Likewise, I haven't seen as many in my garden recently. 
    • The discussion has been about the silence from certain posters about Truss's disastrous actions. Your 'gotcha' is merely a deflection.
    • The banking crisis was a global event which enabled the Tories victory and to this day is somehow used against Labour  covid and furlough are under events which impacted economy.  But guess what? Not just the uk economy! energy prices a result of the Russian invasion, something Johnson said would never happen and as we seek to remove ourselves from non-renewable and Russian controlled natural resources, we have Tories and reform condemning Labour for pursuing renewables. Something most other sane countries are doing  We must also not forget the mad relative in the attic.  Brexit.  Something which contributed massively both to the black hole and to the foreseeable future lack of growth  (this is something starmer has also bizarrely tied himself to. Presumably in an attempt to placate the media/loons who think it was a good idea but which will fail in both aims)
