Mate, I have been very excited about the last two Tests - of which I may remind you the first one was the one we won in Hobart? Remember that Clintos? Yeah? Did you go? Go and see us win? !!!

But the real reason is the pitches brought the bowlers into the game for a change and it was captivating. Maybe Hobart did a bit much but the MCG was an absolutely outstanding wicket. You got runs if you were prepared to work for them, not if you just slapped the front foot down and played through the line like a lot of Test pitches recently. And if you bent your back, ala Siddle, Pattinson, Yadav etc you got reward for it. Didn't turn, but that's about the only thing it didn't do. Loved it.

Really rate the likes of Pattinson, Yadav, great to see Zaheer's skill even though his pace is well down and Hilf, Siddle bowled very well. I'm loving it. Too bad we haven't got a decent Test until March when SA turns up. Seriously excited about that
