On this day, with the Ashes due to slip from the grasp of the team that has practically come to own them (though none of my England-supporting friends is quite able to believe it even now), it seems apt to point you towards this Australian lament:
Excuse me, Englanders, but this isn't cricket as we in Australia know it. Where were the lame long-hops?
.....
That heartbreaking end to the second Test? When England won by two runs after Michael Kasprowicz was given out caught behind off Harmison? I was at a red light when the fatal wicket fell, and not a car moved when the lights changed. On my left, a driver's head rested miserably on the steering wheel.
