They really got themselves out. The bowling was ok but nothing special, just the Eng batsmen played some horrible shots, like they had already won the Ashes. Strauss seems to be carrying the batting now. If he doesnt make runs, theres not a whole lot of steel in that middle order. As we know, Bell only makes runs when the innings has already been set up.
Nightwatchgirl's Pick of the Cricket News this week
Farewell Ricky Ponting and Michael Hussey. NWG always enjoys it when useful Australian batsmen retire, even if one of them is moody and small.
Stuart Broad is on NWG's naughty list. If she ever meets him she would like to educate him in how to be a polite human being instead of being mean to Sir Ian Botham. It's not on Stuart. And that's probably why your heel hurts. Just saying.
Of all the things to invent in the world of cricket, did we really need wickets that light up when they get hit? NWG is doubtful. The Big Bash therefore falls short in terms of innovation. She would have preferred one fielder to have springs in their shoes so they could jump really high or something equally as funny/ridiculous/dangerous.
NWG would like to advertise herself. For once. She advises you all to listen to this podcast and note all the kind things they say about NWG...
NWG would like to thank Patrick Kidd at The Times for putting NWG in the top 50 cricket blogs in the world. She is overwhelmed.
Andrew Symonds makes bold statement: "I'm in a position of responsibility and I can't live irresponsibly. I've realised that." Groundbreaking. (NWG can't bear to take this down)
Ashes Forum
Come and check out the new Ashes Forum on Silly Point with Nightwatchgirl. Don't be shy...
It is my mission to make cricket understandable to all. So along with cricket news, there will also be explanations of particular rules and any other weird business that happens on or off a cricket field.

That's too many words when none will do Ben. NWG is sad. She's going to drown her sorrows.

Rob - appreciated.

I hope NWG has regained her vocal processes?
