   Should we be in 7th heaven already...or keep our powder dry for a bit?
   If it sounds like it's too good to be true...it usually is

   I'm beginning to feel sorry for the Aussies... That's how well we're playing. I'll have the radio under my pillow tonight...

   Here's the latest forecast for today from http://www.bom.gov.au/sa/forecasts/adelaide.shtml

   A few showers, chiefly in the afternoon and evening. A possible thunderstorm
   after midday.

   Hmm... Get them in batting quick, I say.

   well if Pietersen can get a set batsman out, there is a more than a glimmer of hope ...

   That's one of many reasons why cricket baffles me. Sometimes rain is a bad thing and sometimes it's a good thing.What gives?

   'What gives?' At the moment, Ponting's nerves.

    I heard an analysis of the cricket on radio this morning. The only bit which made sense was "the Australians have got to get out there and score as many runs as possible" Even to a non-cricketer that seemed too obvious to need mentioning.

    Well it's not a requirement. They could have just stayed in but that's highly unlikely once the main batters have gone. Their best bet was rain.

    The shift in power is complete. Can't see this aussie team getting any better and can only see us giving them a thumping from here on in.
    I am struggling to come to terms with the fact that we have the best team in the world at something right now.
    Sorry for slipping into serious sport talk so here's something sort of funny

    Ricky Ponting over hears a fortune teller give an exact forecast of how many visitors Australia will recieve in 2011.
    Ponting asks ' Hey mate can you tell me when we'll get the next England batsman out'
    Fortune teller replies ' rack off Punt, i'm not that bloody good '.

    The Australian team are insisting they all took bribes from sub-continent bookies but nobody believes them, mate
