17-Jul-2009•Andrew Miller at Lord's

No sympathy for careless Australia

The visitors carried on batting as though still in Cardiff, without realising different conditions needed a change in attitude and style

17-Jul-2009•Peter English at Lord's

Swinging to the top

Ben Hilfenhaus bent the ball, toyed with batsmen and showed Australia they have a swing bowler they can start to depend on

17-Jul-2009•Peter English at Lord's

The quiet Australian

A no-frills colossus who gritted his teeth, got down to it and stayed around till the bitter end. A salute to Allan Border, with Ricky Ponting on the verge of overtaking him as his country's leading Test run-scorer

17-Jul-2009•Christian Ryan

The weight of history

Australia's raw attack struggled to cope with pressure of play at Lord's, but apart from Andrew Strauss England failed to make them pay

16-Jul-2009•Andrew Miller at Lord's

Nowhere to hide for Johnson

Four tons in an innings, and starting big but losing

Four-thirty-five and losing, Pakistan's lowest Test totals, and the most prolific Australian

14-Jul-2009•Steven Lynch

Legends of the fall

Perhaps one collapse in a Test had become boring, so Sri Lanka and Pakistan produced two here

13-Jul-2009•Sidharth Monga in Colombo

A tale of two prophecies

This was not a day to ask questions. This was a day to believe, like Fawad Alam did

13-Jul-2009•Sidharth Monga in Colombo

Thieving cats, suicidal drivers

It's hot in Colombo, small animals are after your dinner in Galle, and security staff are sticklers for dress codes

13-Jul-2009•Sidharth Monga

The 'tenacious little redhead' does it again

Defeat today might not have been as painful for England as a collective, given how little of the match they had actually commanded, but for Paul Collingwood personally it would have been a low without compare

12-Jul-2009•Andrew Miller at Cardiff

England escape; the Ashes are ablaze

The 2009 Ashes are officially alive. But though England will draw encouragement from their great escape, much more is needed from their marquee batsmen

Sorry, Haury

A letter of apology to Nathan Hauritz from The Hauritzer Fan Club

12-Jul-2009•Peter English at Cardiff

Pakistan cricket doesn't lend itself to analysing. For nobody yet knows what motivates its cricketers, or what brings them down.

12-Jul-2009•Sidharth Monga in Colombo

England's heads stuck in the clouds

11-Jul-2009•Andrew Miller at Cardiff

Haddin's silky touch

Brad Haddin is a batsman, not a wicketkeeping thrasher, even though he can comfortably find the stands with his driving

Versatile Dilshan up for any challenge

Tillakaratne Dilshan is no mood to let go of any opportunity that comes his way, not even wicketkeeping
