A stirring defence by England, but plucky Pakistan wins by 71 runs.

And I have just got my oil heater out of the wall without resorting to an angle grinder for the flue! Truly a historic day for Australia and Pakistan!

Re: The Cricket Thread
A few more decent stands and a bit more aggression from England's batsmen and they could have taken this game.
Anyway, 3-0 and a lot for England to think about. SL are nowhere in the same league as Pakistan but competent none the less. England to win that series 1-0.

Re: The Cricket Thread
Aus vs Sri Lanka ODI starting soon ... I like my cricket but I think I'm hitting overload.
Sri Lanka won the toss and going to have a bowl, interesting decision. Aus should make a mountain of runs.

I love my cricket and am a member of the WACA but I can't be arsed to go down there this afternoon - too hot. I'm going to head home instead and drink cider in the pool and listen to it on the radio

That must mean you are one of the very rare people in this world who has witnessed Mitchell Johnson bowl a good ball
