Can’t resist it!
Those are Mike Hussey’s bowling statistics (yes, I did say ‘bowling’) for the first innings of the second Sri Lanka Test. As perfect as they could be.
To make it even better, it was Kumar Sangakkara whom he dismissed, one of the best batsman around. 😀
For non-cricketers, you can read that as “one over, one maiden, no runs for one wicket”.

Pedantically speaking, I believe it would also be acceptable to write ‘it was K. Sangakkara that he…..’ or even just ‘it was K. S. he dismissed’. 🙂

There are times when there is nothing better than to quote the inestimable Grumpy Larry, of Dark Side fame –
Did you not notice that the (entirely superfluous) ‘whom’ is in bold? 🙄
Personally, I would say who he dismissed as I don’t do whom’s (whoms’?).
Just missed this over yesterday, Bearsy. Been watching some of the test online using the pirate streaming station.

Many thanks for that JW, I hadn’t been able to watch it before – I was following text on cricinfo. Much appreciated. 🙂
I haven’t caught up with the cricket Bearsy, but I do relish that you’re cluching at such straws!!!
When’s Punter and Pup going to do something useful? 😀
Cheeky monkey!
Well, what do you expect?! 😀
Mind you, I see the green baggies are doing well in SL, with a good win in the first test and a good start to the second. Has Punter been dropped?
How’s CA doing after the report? More nepotism and NSW favouritism?
England keep winning here, it is most disconcerting!
Punter went home to hold his wife’s hand while she dropped their second sprog. He’ll be back for the third test, but young Swampy has rather usurped the number 3 spot, so perhaps they’ll have to drop him!
142 from Hussey in a partnership worth 258. Not so bad for an old guy. 😕
1st sprog, 2nd sprog, what’s wrong with soft as shite professional sports people these days running home to hold the wife’s hand. Doesn’t CA pay his wages? Pathetic. Mind you, it has probably done the team a favour…..
Couldn’t agree more!
