Oh dear. I’ve just discovered that this is happening, on Channel 4 TV:
You don’t need a jet to screw up your sleep patterns. Interesting television at 4am will do the job just as well.
I was just looking for daily highlights. Instead, I discover the whole thing.
For some reason this bit of computer graphics refused to allow Gadwin, my screen scanner, to scan it. So, I photoed it. “Rating 7”. Bloody cheek.
The game I’m now watching is this one. The very first thing I saw was Stokes getting out. Pujara nearly dropped it, but he didn’t. England now 431-4, with Root approaching his second double century in the space of three test matches.
And Root now has his two hundred, going to it with a six. 440-4. The stadium is empty, but he won’t care.
Yay for cricket
I said: “You don’t need a jet to screw up your sleep patterns.”
But jets are still involved, because the England cricketers out in India, performing on my TV, do need jets to do their travelling.
Damn right, Sir. 4am in England and this is the session!
Wonderful fun. Cricket. eh? It doesn’t matter waht happens.
You should try growing up in Australia. All important international sporting events are on at 3am.
