At this moment in time, Jasprit Bumrah is playing his 41st Test and is holding a bowling average of 19.94.…
How depressing: Australia (3-12) trail India by 521 runs after day three.
This is the WSJ but not paywalled. Also not what you’d expect.Decline and Fall of America? Not Yet Trump appears…
Janet Yellen departs from office — as she leaves a trail of mess behind her
Aaaannnd … then he leaves an inswinger from Bumrah.
Hits him on the pads.
Looks plumb LBW.
Ump agrees and gives it.
But no.
The moron emulates his idol McSniffy and challenges it.
The DRS shows it knocking over middle and off.
3/12 chasing 500+ and one DRS burnt.
Cop who killed Ashli Babbitt has ‘significant’ discipline history, including gun incidents: Report.
I’m naturally averse to conspiracy theories, both due to what I perceive as the impracticality and the absence of credible motivation, but I find the events surrounding the 6th of January 2020, at the U.S Capitol to be one of the most suspicious events of my lifetime.
Don’t worry about the cricket. Andrew MacDonald extended his contract prior to the summer. FMD.
To be honest, it’s a marriage made in heaven. Mediocre cricketer coaches mediocre side.
Fat, comfortable arseholes with no feel for the game and what it means to this country. Like Cricket Australia asking parasites if they can have a match on Australia Day.
Get out of the way.
The 7/11 ers were fantastic.
Also of sporting note, Manchester City 0-4 Tottenham Hotspur.
5 losses in a row for this side. The mighty Reds can extend the lead at the top to 8 points overnight
This is from an old Punch magazine:
He: “Hello, here’s Smith out for a duck again”.
She: “Did he explain how he made no runs?”
He: “Well, you see, he happened to go in just when Jones was in the middle of his hat trick”.?
One of the “true believers” over on Andrew Bolt assuring us that the first act of the Whitlam Government, when elected, was to withdraw the Australian troops from Vietnam…Words fail me!
My ego demanded I copy and paste this from the tail end of the last page, replying to Roger’s comment about the uniparty:
I hereby declare the place formerly known as Melbourne, Bearbrass, or Naarm
to henceforth be legally recognized by its new name
…Retardville
As much as KD hates left-handers, he’s going to have to admit that the new 7/11 opener is pure class.
what is it with the apostrophe?
It’s the septum ring of immaturity. That, and jealousy of Hawai’i.
See also the wierdo underscore letters which the keen-sighted might have witnessed coming and going over the last decade or so.
Anybody seen any story about how fresh D.N.A. on a bandanna, may set one of Janine Baldings murderers free? What, forty years down the track?
Anyway, “Sliante” to you mob.
I’m having an evening inhaling a couple of good single malts, reading John Terraine’s classic book “1918 – The year Of Victory” and reflecting on why I should pay the Tax Office many thousands of dollars for the priveledge of funding my own retirement.

I’m not a military expert, but have the feeling that the “Rocketman” has the same idea by sending N Korean troops to the Russia-Ukraine conflict.
For the loss of a relatively few troops they gain valuable experience in real combat.
Theory is good but goes only so far and the N Korean army hadn’t seen any action since the real war, and that was a long time ago.
Goosestepping on parade doesn’t cut it.

At this moment in time, Jasprit Bumrah is playing his 41st Test and is holding a bowling average of 19.94. WTF?
I saw a vid and story on Cricinfo about him showing how his release point is a good yard or so closer to the batsman than other bowlers. Side on vision showed him at 45 degrees with arm fully extended before he let go of the pill. Lots of LBWs. McSweeney today. Steve Smith first ball etc.
