God help me ... I'm off to watch football

ODI#3 part 2:

We are moving a wee bit slowly and already a wicket down, but there's a long way so I am not giving up yet.

I shouldn't watch - it's bad for my health. And my fingernails.

Cammie takes one in the nurries from Sidebottom. The crowd went wild. Bumble Lloyd starts to reminisce about his days of facing Jeff Thompson.

Moments later, Sidebottom makes an idiot of himself (go figure!) by celebrating wildly a wicket that wasn't ... it wasn't anything, Ryan, what are you on about? Go get a haircut already.

And so we continue to plod along at snail's pace, nary a boundary to be found and even I was getting bored ... until we got to see a diving Swann, gracefully sliding along the ground while Tim Paine's ball goes easily to the rope.

And then Paine was gone for 29 and we are still moving slow as you please ... but here comes Clarke in his last stint as Cap'n for this series, here's hoping he can do us some good.

Nope ... after facing 20 balls, he is still on 4 runs ... I'm switching over to the football.

I'll check back later.

yawn.

Sounds like the most exciting part of this match is batman and robin having a fall out in one of the stands and being ejected ... sorry I missed that.
