Time to Surge

Did ya all see the worm? Damn Catherine had a fine surge. I was wondering if Anna was just going to run away with this but Catherine is keeping her in check for sure - Catherine, did you assign your maths students to create pivot tables for you?? Just wondering. Well done.

The game seemed like a bit of a bore, but I wasn't watching it so maybe it was exciting. I tried to check in with the commentary but between the rain delay and a lot of talk about what the first day of the millennium was, well..... So anyway, the West Indies beat Pakistan by 2 wickets with 56 balls remaining. Pakistan batted first and put up 170. Only two of their batsmen did squat, Jamshed with 50 and the Hawk with 96. The rest all scored in the single digits! Both Roach and Narine were able to rack up 3 wicket hauls, well done to the bowlers. Then the West Indies took to the bat, no one did anything to exciting with the highest score coming from Gayle (39), but then they didn't really need to did they. Seems like it was a pretty easy win for them. So, does this mean Pakistan is bottom of the barrel this tournament or does it mean West Indies have their eyes on the finals? It remains to be seen.

Tomorrow we have an ashes preview with England and Australia. Apparently Australia isn't looking good and were crushed in a practice match by England not long ago. Australia's captain Michael Clarke is out with a bad back. Not to worry though because he is being looked after by the wiggles personal fitness guru. Apparently this guy even played guitar on one of the wiggles albums, so I'm sure Clarke is in good hands. And if not maybe he can have a second career as the green guy, Sean will be so pleased.

As for the rest of us. There was a bit of shifting but nothing compared to Catherine's surge. Jolie seemed to flatten a little while I don't think Katy S nor Hillary had people playing. You know there is a game everyday right ladies? And you have like 75 trades right? Just saying, maybe they have some secret strategy....hmmmmmmmmmm............

Good luck everyone, you're gonna need it because I'm planning my own surge tomorrow.

Go Catherine Go
