Lovely writing on Cricinfo (again).

"But then, Brearley made his legendary switch to the Kirkstall Lane End, and Willis clicked into his ultimate Berserker mode - eyes glazed over, fury focussed on a distant point way, way beyond the stance of Australia's rapidly scattered batsmen"

They should bury/cremate him with Ray Bright’s middle stump. Fantastic, the way the middle pole just disappears, leaving off and leg untouched...

Damn, just read about this. I was listening to the above while hiking in the Brecon Beacons. A dozen boys trying to huddle around a portable transistor as the signal went in and out while simultaneously also attempting not to fall off the ridge on Pen-y-Fan.

Play abandoned at the MCG today due an unsafe pitch. It has been a road in test cricket recently so I guess they are trying to spice it up a bit in advance of the Boxing Day test against NZ.

That's twice I've popped over to check the score and Scotland have promptly lost a wicket. I might be cursed today.
