To quote one of my faithful correspondents, all forms of cricket other than 5-day tests are "shite".
But I still listen to the one-dayers on the local radio while doing more important things like cutting my toe nails and priming the odd bit of plywood -- found in the shed while looking for things to chuck on the verge so as not to appear too poor.
Downside of 720 is the gal who does the station promos, beseeching us to tune to "ABC Radio Pa:rth" -- with the "ar" bit veering only slightly towards the "er", and minimally extended as per the colon.
I don't give a flying ferk what they do in Pa:rth but they could at least employ someone who knows how to pronounce the name of the place.
