Just come back from the WACA where I think the Aussies will get a thumping tomorrow when India get another bowl at them.



They need 412 to win in the last innings, can't see them doing that.



Australia struggled all day long, both bowling at India and then facing them.



Come on India, give them a good thumping.



I got some very strange looks today when I was cheering the fall of Aussie wickets.

I heard on BBC news that the Greeks in Australia were demostrating and slagging off the TRNC at the match - when people complained that this was racist, they stated that as TRNC was illegal, this was not racism but a genuine grievance - what's the matter with these sick people - why can't they look at things objectively!!!

Milou,



I never heard of any problem at the match, but I can only guess it was a backlash from the news reports that day around the Creek Cypriot tennis player Marcus Baghdatis, who was in the news for racial comments regarding Turkish Cypriots.



Anyway, back home now to constant rain...deep joy.

The protests were at the tennis tournament not the cricket
