Australia's shambolic batting dissolves in face of Graeme Swann's guile


In front of another packed house, in pristine weather, Australia contrived to produce a batting display of such startling ineptitude that as Lehmann sat and watched gloomily, they lost, from the final delivery of the morning session to an hour after tea, all their wickets for 86 runs, 24 of those coming for the last wicket, the second-highest stand of the innings. Having been splattered around first thing by Stuart Broad and Graeme Swann, and then added 42 for the first wicket in response to England's 361, it constituted one of their worst Ashes days in this country. It was certainly the worst since Melbourne last time, when they were dismissed on the first morning for 98 and then saw Andrew Strauss and Alastair Cook add 157 without loss by the close.

You mustn't critisise the 'English' cricket team too much - as many of them were born elsewhere: Strauss, Peterson, Prior, Trott, Morgan etc. In one Test match they fielded 7 foreign born players, my cricket loving friends tell me...

MCC are touring Cyprus this year, maybe we invite Australia next ;-)

In Paphos,lives one of the best wicketkeepers the world has seen.
