Lets look at the stats:
  • Australia scored 804 runs for the loss of 10 wickets. That is an average of 80.4 runs/wicket.
  • England scored 527 runs for the loss of 20 wickets. That is an average of 26.35 runs/wicket.
Hmm, now we need some way to get this at least slight on topic (well as much as necessary for the QF Forum ) since the Eggland team flies VS and the Aussie team just signed a 3 year deal with EK. Now which airline are they useing domestically? Both VS and EK have some linkage with DJ.
