As I write we are staring a massive hiding in the face and asking it for more. Nathan and Dan are at the crease trying to hold it together and we are 138-7 after being 73-6 earlier in the innings.
Nathan has just swung and missed at 4 of the last 5 Tait deliveries. Things are not looking good.
There's no easy way to accept this - we are going to get smashed.

Me, deliriously happy,
with Dan at the prizegiving,
Bristol - 2008 |
But maybe hope still exists, I went along to
Bristol a few years back and we were rolled for 180 by England but got back up to knock them over for 162. Maybe, just maybe if we can get over 200, we can look to contain them and watch pressure do its work late in the innings. Maybe, just maybe Watson, Ponting, Clarke, Hussey and White will all fail.
You'd think though after the
terrible things that happened in Christchurch this week that the ozzies might show some charity and let us win this....
