Currently watching the Cricket from the MCG, 2nd Day, Aussies 3/460,...have ground the west indies into the dirt (no problem with that at all!!,...Voges 69, Smith 80,....and they're STILL just taking the occasional single,,,,,surely now, they could have a whack,....no big hitting at all,......BBBOOORRIIINNGGG.
What are these guys after?...getting their NUMBER of runs up, setting new records for THEMSELVES,....what about some "entertaining" cricket,.....surely at 3/460,.....it's time!!

Practice. Spending time in the crease during a test is invaluable experience, as well as confidence building. Test cricket is not T20. And they will need that confidence when we play N.Z. in N.Z.Quote:

Test Cricket is not boring - I listened to the entire test on my little transistor radio while camping. :). It would be nice to see a closer game, but the Aussies played the while match very sensibly and very well.Quote:

Can't say I've seen anything that is thrilling me at all, but I'll persist and watch the whole match in case it gets better at some point. Batsmen throwing their wickets away having a slog at a loose ball isn't my idea of good Cricket.
