It's better to burn out, than to fade away.
I saw the following stat. From the Brisbane test to today, England have played 21 games of cricket in all formats.
We lost 18 of them.
oh dear
This may mean we beat the Dutch at football.

Anderson on 69.![]()
If "the wicket's a road" as they keep saying, it doesn't explain how the star batsmen have got out. The 10th wicket partnerships definitely deserve credit, but the lack of firepower has definitely made it less daunting. Can't imagine Mitchell Johnson or Steyn struggling to mop up the tail even on this pitch. This has been a problem for some time with India, recall McCallum's triple hundred in the last series. They get themselves into a winning position and Gerrard it up.
Root and Anderson have the record 10th wicket partnership in test matches.
India are just banging it in, every single ball. Hardly testing a tailender significantly, road or not.
Banging it in is just embarrassing when you're bowling 80mph. It's bouncing twice before it reaches Dhoni.
On TMS Vaughan said only 10% of the deliveries this morning would've hit the stumps. Botham says he doesn't know what the reaction would be if this was Cook's captaincy. Dhoni's fucking useless, he should stick to his twenty20 village cric.
