In appreciation of cricket
The cricket is just too damn awesome for words, no matter who wins. Today's one-dayer at the GABBA is a fabulous case in point. Okay the top order of the Australian batsmen was a complete disaster but the 7th wicket stand between Hussey and Lee was just fabulous to watch and the South African innings has been entertaining.
I might be tired as all hell at the moment but a watching the cricket is about the only thing keeping me awake at the moment. Great stuff.
EDIT: Even with the loss, this was a great match! And I'm sure the last minute storm that seemed to be localized entirely around the GABBA, with all other skies around Brisbane completely clear, was just God's sense of humour.

*chuckles* Yes, Guruann, but even more bizarre was that the cell was so tiny and seemed to be entirely confined to the GABBA. At least a result was played out with just those 5 balls after the delay! :)

Well at least there will be a roof in Melbourne on Friday night, just need to get the tickets.

It takes 8 minutes for that roof to close! No good in a sudden downpour!
