An Australian cricket fan... at least, in the last 12 hours... 90,000 watched as they were all out for less than 100 in 48 overs at the MCG... and then were horrified as the tourists posted 150+ without loss... listening to the highlights, it sounds like England could have bowled underarm with a tennis ball and got away with it... they could do no wrong.
Their experience reminded me of those times when things I've been involved in have been outrageously blessed by God's presence... those moments when you could use a piece of imaginary chewing gum to connect your guitar to the amp and it would still work... on days like that, it's almost like God takes particular pleasure in demonstrating just how easily he can turn the world upside down for those he loves... failure isn't even a possiblity.
I almost felt sorry for the Australian cricket fans this morning... and in that spirit of largesse... Happy Christmas...
It surprised me too. For the first time in living memory, I actually read a cricket match report and wasn't bored.

ReplyDelete@ Pop... It's never too late to get interested in a proper sport you know...
ReplyDeleteOr, if you prefer one with a bit more testosterone... then Bristol also has an ice-hockey team...
Hmmm, I already 'skate on thin ice' the majority of the time... ;o)
