those cheeky monkeys

Getting the score at lunch, and knowing that in all reality the game has well and truly slipped beyond our grasp, I was disconsolate for all of about 30 seconds.

There were no tears, but there was a general malaise that had affected by very being.

However then a lightbulb went on above my head.

I remembered David Hussey and his double hundred to beat the speedblitz blues a couple of years back.

This is obviously what Victoria has been planning the whole time.

How else would the let a rookie make a spectacular hundred.

I am sorry boys, I just never saw it coming.

So now I’m assuming that this is a cunning plan that is intended to inflict maximum pain on New South Wales.

Sounds like a brilliant idea, just don’t take it too far gents, because if they make, say 800 runs, like the look like doing, Hussey is only good for about 400 of them, and after that the rest of you are going to have to share them.

But kudos to you on this wonderful initiative.
