Tonight I babysat and was able to watch Sky Sports in HD on a big screen... It was pretty darn good. I saw Ashes highlights and Ray-ray beat Ferrer to go through to the semi-finals belongside The Fed. Group A will play their final round robin matches tomorrow but people seem pretty certain it'll be a GoNads and Djoko show. GoNads is pretty much a dead cert., but if Roddy beats GoNads in straight sets and Djoko loses, Roddy goes through. If Djoko loses and Roddy loses Berdy goes through. If Djoko wins, Djoko goes through. So yes, anyone but GoNads and Djoko is unlikely, but nowhere near impossible. I'm still going for the Rodster!
And the much anticipated Ashes? Well, not the best start in the world I have to say. Strauss was bowled for a duck on the third ball, Trott went soon after, and pretty soon England's batsmen were dropping like flies. Helped enormously by a sterling performance by Australia's Peter Siddle who got a hat-trick on his 26th birthday. Pretty good going. England were bowled all out for 260 even. The Aussie's are currently 63-0. Hmm. Time for Swann, I think. We need to make a break through here.
I'll keep you blogged...
