Fucking cricket

Australia had every bit of luck going over the last two days. Weather, edges, ball not carrying etc etc. Add to that the apparent curse on Burns.

Still, the Leach thing is baffling. We have a world class spinner who can bat, but we keep him for white ball only. I don’t know what has happened to opening batsmen since Cook retired. Then there’s the recurring fitness issues - you might reasonably expect this with older players and I can understand selecting Anderson and Broad while they can still perform excellently - but Robinson? He's 28 but walks like a 50 year old man.

Anyway. Fuckers.
