The sub continent saves test cricket
First Brendon McCullum helped himself to a hundred and fries, then went back for a double and a shake. Further South that Gayle dude cracked a triple. Not that he knows who Bradman is, but by accident he fell short of the hallowed 334. Speaking to Gayle, I’m told he wanted nothing to do with slow-coach Tubby Taylor’s 334.
Basically, Mc’s double and Gayle’s triple drew it for the islanders. Now the Lankans can go bat to oblivion but they still can’t win the match. A thousand is on the cards, expect Sangakkara to make a case for a sixth day as he pursues his first five hundred plus score.
Elsewhere, Pakistan playing another home-away series, in idyllic sub continental settings drew one unexpectedly. In comparison to the scores on display, Younis Khan settled for a lowly 131. A true match saving innings, wasting everybody’s time including his. He even smiled, in spite of batting with Misbah.

Angelo Mathews plays Australia, like he’s playing India.
Mathews’ career average is a youthful 33, his average against India, more like a hundred. That’s perception. Reality, his highest score before today, was against India, 75. He played India, like Bangladesh played the Kiwis.
I’ve heard a few Mathews’ post match interviews, can be easily misconstrued as cocky – he talks of his skills more in Sehwagspeak. And that’s something that struck me today, while writing this. Previously, Mathews to me was just another in your face teenager. And his captain Sanga, with his almost salesmanlike endorsements of the kid, his brand manager.
And then Mathews made the MCG seem small today. And all I can recall is Mathews standing silently alongside his captain, who spoke some more.
