Neil Manthorp in his diary for Supercricket, has a rather difficult time dealing with the security at the WACA despite wearing an embarrassingly large which says 'Access All Areas.'
As I step over it, another security guard becomes aggressive and charges me. Harris is outraged and angry. He asks what the problem is. "My job means nobody gets in there!" snarls the official. For once, it's me urging the player to be calm. All part of the beautiful experience of touring Australia, and I mean that. Late at night, as I finish my daily diary, I really mean that it is a great tour. It just has little 'difficulties' along the way.
