. Suppose you have a physicist and a sociologist standing at the side of a field, observing a set of events unfolding on the field. The physicist does [describes] it using the terminology of mass and velocity and frequency of radiation and the rest. And the sociologist does it by describing it as a rugby match.
what are the west indies playing at they must realise this is a must win game
Makes for the England match possibly being a more "easy to win" match than it was going to be, one team will be wanting it more for sure, one team will be just wanting to go back to bed the way they are playing.
htf he ever knew where the ball was going to land is a mystery, but he did it well enough to make the test team:
Paul Adams - South Africa v Australia, Port Elizabeth 1996-97
Adams was known as "the frog in the blender" on account of his bewildering bowling action, but when faced with the master spinner, Shane Warne, it was his batting that got into a tangle. In the second Test at Port Elizabeth he unwisely opted to try out his reverse-sweep, but instead of picking out the gap at third man he succeeded only in shovelling the ball straight into Mark Taylor's hands at slip. Warne immediately fell about laughing and even Adams managed to see the funny side, but South Africa's coach, Bob Woolmer, was less amused. "That was a little disappointing," he intoned. "There was no need to mock him."
Bloody hell though, that's outrageous. Typical cricket - it drags on for weeks with nothing much happening.
Apart from the obvious of course - Woolmer, pedalos, match-fixing...
