Yes, Hels, England's performance far exceeded anything most of us long-suffering England cricket followers had dared hope for. It's been so long since the team played well in Australia. I don't even care about Sydney now - I've had all my Christmas presents now!
The England performance on Boxing Day led me to post up a festive song...
ReplyDeleteOn the first day at Melbourne my true love sent to me
12 balls for Watson
11 Aussies cussing
10 runs for Ponting with...
9 working fingers
8 for 77!
7 for 77!?
6 for 77!!!
5 no balls....
4 each for the swingers
3 stumps still standing
2 batting sessions
And they still couldn't knock up a ton...
