England had their way with the Zimbabweans putting much pressure on Australia to save face. If England wins tomorrow they will go through along with Zimbabwe. If Australia wins, England has to hope they only lose by a little. A tea cups worth of loss if you will. Speaking of England, Pietersen had a good game and so the "you pick a good captain" award goes to Anna and Sandeep. This inspired choice shot Anna up into 5th place and has everyone wondering if the key to this whole thing is to have no clue about what is going on. Or, is it just the stellar upbring those Barnett girls had? Either way congrats to me for being in 2nd and to Anna in 5th. Mishal hung onto her 1st place spot and Moira - we are all proud of you for picking Australians even if they did nothing for you!

From the tiny island across the pond we say, Well done England! For a while there, it looked to be going Zimbabwe's way but thank goodness for Pieterson and Collingwood. Another good day for the bunch at the top of the worm! Has Mishal had training in this sort of thing?? Let's hope we get a full day of cricket today - there will be much ringing of hands while the Aus/England match is on. Let's hope for a little less rain although I am sure the farmers were pleased to have it.
Rain in Durban, sunshine everywhere else in South AFrica today, though it's cold in all venues. Remember, we're in very early spring still, and these pitches are not normally used until mid-October. So no-one really knows how they'll behave.
OK Mishal, we'll have to try and learn from your strategy. Though I'll keep a couple of Australians in my team in the hopes that I am a hex on them. Now don't click your tongues, folks. Strategy is strategy.
Cheers!

During the World Cup in Spring Mishal had only Pakistani players - they failed her. Now, she seems to have diversified and the Pakistanis are playing well........Moir? Mishal? Somewhere theres a trend and a good strategy.
I can't help myself. It seems some of the English and South African enthusiasm has rubbed off on the Barnett's. Let's hope the Barnett power stays right at the top!
Sorry Michael.
