Yes, I'm worried about the top order batsmen - a lot of unconvincing innings
recently. Even Hayden and Ponting, normally reliable. Damien Martyn seems to
have good concentration still. Oh, well, it makes the next Test even more
interesting. (But my sleeping patterns are all shot to pieces when they
play - I tell myself I'll just watch the replays, but I'm weak-willed and
watch every bloody ball.)
But a good way for you to celebrate - connected vicariously to a massive
audience ... Pity you don't have a Character Generator console at home - You
could have fed the Age news across the bottom of screen :-)
Cheers - & g'night/morning ...
Andrew

Hi Andrew,
Well, I was hoping the so-called recognised batsmen could have kept it
running a bit longer. But it's only the second test, so it's now a real
contest. I thought Warne was hilarious at times. As was the crowd. All
great fun.
And thanks,
Jill
