Didn't catch much of the cricket today. Got to the missus place and wanted to watch some but then we went for a run and by the time we got back it was basically tea. Then it was dinner and then I snuck in a bit while dishes were being washed. From what I've saw and read up since, it seems like a day of missed opportunities.

Katich LBW on a full toss on 83? That's just lazy. But he has consistently held his own. It seems like a day where we could've gotten more out of despite being in dire straights. I was disappointed I didn't see Steyn bowl very much and all I saw him doing was getting belted by Krejza and Johnson. Very very glad to see Krejza playing, we need to develop a spinner. The Ashes aren't far away now.

I hope the Aussies go down one zip. Partly b/c a part of me hates Ponting and this all new defensive atttitude. Once upon a time, Australians would talk themselves down but more recently they keep talking themselves up. "Even if SA beat us, we're still the number one team" blah blah. Under Taylor, Waugh and Gilly, we focused on one game at a time. Now we're awfully defensive. This will make the Melbourne Test a very interesting affair and the series a livewire.
