    Yeah, a local commentator said this morning that they’d prepared a spicy, perhaps too spicy, pitch.

    Well, it’s not nothing but it doesn’t take anything away from tanking the first three.

    Cunts the lorra 'em. I heard an estimated 16 million AUD in lost revenue for Cricket Australia. Looks like I'll have to go watch Collingwood in the AFL for my first MCG experience -- though half the folks here tell me their supporters are knobs.

    The other half are lying. Also: AFL is shit.

    The MCG is great though. Love that place. I’d have been there for the two days of this test if my mum wasn’t visiting for Christmas. Looking forward to being there for some slog’n’giggle action next week.

    I see cricket is fun again.
    My favourite stat:
    Of the last 69 runs in the England innings, Joe Root contributed just one of them.

    Brooks is a brilliant one day player but he just isn't a test player, yet.

    The T20 World Cup is on.
    The last hour of Afghanistan v South Africa this morning was incredible.
