I had wicket alerts activated on my phone while I was in a meeting at work this afternoon and I couldn't believe how often it was going off, I think I was causing concern with the grin that gradually appeared on my face.
I was actually a bit disappointed when I got out and found they'd managed to put on 26 for the last one!

Not sure if it was confirmed, but it was said it was the first time in test history that all 4 innings of a test have been played on a single day of a match??....
And so you aim towards the sky, And you'll rise high today, Fly away, Far away, Far from pain....

Not seen it confirmed, but it would be the first time I've ever heard of it.
Gutted they broke 26, but that's cricket all over. Who needs twenty20?!

Referees are like women, they make snap decisions and never reverse them.

Watched this live on Thurs. Aus were 18-6 when I started. Got to 22-9 when I was interrupted by the bl**dy Sainsbury's grocery delivery man. I'd have been truly gutted if I'd missed seeing them all out for twenty-odd.
Marvellous piece of commentary (replayed) from Robin Jackman when that Aussie batsman came down the pitch, took a wild swing and was caught behind the wicket off the top edge. What did Jackass say? :"He got nowhere near it."
