Dinner was great, thanks for asking

The ch 9 commentary boys sound like four lads sitting around over a schooner after work. Winner. Keeping the rusted-on old bastards 95 per cent of the population are fed up with out of the box works too. We all know T20 is all hit 'n' giggle and a more relaxed commentary team sets the mood perfectly.
Why are we having 7 ODIs? Obvious answer is to fill Cricket Australia's coffers, but I reckon playing the same muppets that many times won't help come the World Cup. With people sick of the 50-over format, I reckon no bi-lateral series should be more than three games. It just gets silly ... and no one will remember who did what one week later.

Dave Hussey? They picked the wrong brother. He's too slow a starter at this level, no matter how much he makes for Victoria. Really struggles to hit the thing off the square sometimes. Can't play short stuff, either.

I hope the Bear (Cam White) goes off. Damn. As I wrote that, lbw Swann. Good pill.

I hate the word nurdling. Scratch that. Its not a word.

I'm terrible at blogging, but am doing this after a long day at work ... Writing proper stuff.
Finch should not have come in now - he opens for Victoria and usually hammers quick stuff. He won't see any of that tonight.

Nice shot hussey ... Shame deep mid wicket got in the way. 8 off 16 balls. Told ya he was slow starting.

Smith's in now - FYI, he is the most boring tweeter I have ever read. I stopped following him.

Finch can't even hit full tosses for six. Neither could I, but that's not the point. Some Indian just paid $300K for him to play IPL. I'd want a guy to be able to hit full tosses for six for that sort of coin.

Smith just went sweep-crazy. He connected ... once? Might be time for a breather. He looks overwhelmed. I know I am.

Australia won't get more than 145. Slow deck though, so it might be enough.
