Yesterday I spent a good amount of time strategizing, planned all my trades, took notes for the blog, reminded my dear husband that a tournament is afoot, taunted each and every one of you in my head, then promptly forgot to actually sit down at the computer to DO any of it. Fortunately for me the game was a washout, unfortunately for you that means I have more trades banked.
Here's what happened yesterday: Australia batted first and really only needed Finch (82) and Warner(107) to put up 307 for Pakistan to chase. Mohammed Amir was the star bowler logging a 5 wicket haul. Pakistan for their effort tried putting everyone to work, they had like 5 guys scoring in the 40s with Ul Haq banking 53 but they still came up 41 runs short. I guess they needed one more guy. 3 wickets to Cummins and a win to Australia.
For those who are 2 Cheap 2 Attend there has been lots of jockeying and everyone seems to have their elbows out. Anna for her part has held onto first for quite a few days now. Wasn't she just trying to get rid of the Sweaty Teddy Trophy of Winningness? Well I'm coming for ya dear sister, I knew just the days to fall asleep on the job and now I've got trades to spare. Clustercluck2019 leads the Trophytakers, followed by the Political *unkies just edging out the Crackpot Rabbits. Nagels lead Stour Power with the Panicky Squids hanging on over the Muttermatters.
Tomorrow England takes on the West Indies, let's hope it's dry.
