Where do Kiwis stand on the Ashes, Yello? I used to have a mate from NZ who hated the Aussies unless they were playing England!When does a guess become a prediction? When it comes true I suppose!
I disagree. Clarke was cautious with his captaincy. Should have tried to force a result but didn't.
I've been too generous to the colonials in this Test. Showing up for a bit is pointless.
Re cautious captaincy, I'm amazed more hasn't been made of this.
...
From the evidence of this series, Clark's the better batsman, but Cook's a far more astute captain.
I think Cook is the type to be able to develop his captaincy over time too - why worry at the moment ?!
I remember those days, TMS on the radio in the middle of the night as England played the West Indies and the rest day might help bruised swelling come down on a finger or a left eye shiner improve so a batsman could actually see out of his eye again...Right, who remembers when test matches started on a Thursday and rested on Sunday? I'm only mentioning this because I never expected the test to start today. Aussies are 23 - 1
