Aussies Entertain

Damn!

Yesterday I took my son to the Test Match at the SCG, only to be very nearly hypnotised into a comatose state by the South African batsmen's dull occupation of the crease.

Then today, whilst I was back at the office re-aquainting myself with the art of developing software, Ponting made a typically masterful ton in his hundredth Test and Gilchrist cut loose, rediscovering his ability to destroy opposing bowlers.

Oh well. Hopefully, with my continued absence, the Aussies will wrap up the series two-nil in a suitably entertaining fashion.

Update (6th Jan, wishing I was at the SCG): As Australia cruise to victory Ponting has just brought up another century, this time in just 111 balls. That's a century in each innings in his hundredth Test!
