Best move of the match - changing the old ball for a new one that moved around all over the place. Not sure how they got away with that. It changed the course of the game. It’s a shame that taints it somewhat.

Nothing wrong with that ball that a good sandpapering wouldn't fix

Looked like spit and polish on a buffing machine to me.

Apparently Afghanistan won. Good on them, well played, even if it’s only pretend cricket..
And now our loss is out of the way we can resume normal programming.

Well it looks like the Aussies suck at hit and giggle.
Maybe England can come home strongly to beat India with a strong moral game?

Students of history know that Afghanistan is known as the graveyard of empires.
Our sportsmen are a mollycoddled overpaid lot of manscapers - and deserve what they got, right up the Khyber Pass!
