Meanwhile in Barbados, New Zealand managed to clinch the series against West Indies despite thunderous weather. No rolling around or fake injuries in Cricket, though people do tend to get peeved if you bowl at their heads.
England lost to Sri Lanka in Leeds in June and faces India in Nottingham next week.
"... They ne'er cared for us
yet: suffer us to famish, and their store-houses
crammed with grain; make edicts for usury, to
support usurers; repeal daily any wholesome act
established against the rich, and provide more
piercing statutes daily, to chain up and restrain
the poor. If the wars eat us not up, they will; and
there's all the love they bear us."
-- Shakespeare: Coriolanus, Act 1, scene 1
