Some might say that a cricket contest took place today. Others, including all of New South Wales, would disagree with a certain amount of muscular vitality. But far more importantly, we can reveal for the first time a hidden secret about the much scrutinised technique of Philip Hughes.

It's hard to tab the New York Yankees as a team of destiny. They contend for World Series titles year after year, their spending habits often blamed for making Major League Baseball a plutocracy that rewards the big-market teams with wins and glory. They are either the definition of a classy, winning franchise or the personification of arrogant, humorless baseball-as-business thinking, depending on...

Would you Adam and Eve it? You wait a couple of decades for a home Ashes series victory – and then two come along in succession! The disparity between the individual talents of the two teams seemed wide - Australia were by some margin the stronger and arguably only Strauss, Broad and Swann (for Watson, Johnson and Hauritz) would have got in the Aussie squad at The Oval. But when it came to the...

When it emerged yesterday morning that Australia had dropped Philip Hughes, there was a strong temptation to write a piece castigating their selectors for replacing him with Shane Watson when there appeared to be better and more obvious alternatives, such as Mike Hussey, who learned his trade as an opening batsman. Now, in the light of what happened between 5 and 7 yesterday afternoon, I'm glad I didn't,...

Shane Watson has parachuted into an Australian opening batsman slot and surprisingly been the big success story of day one of the third Ashes Test at Edgbaston. Watson, who replaced the out-of-form Philip Hughes as an opening batsman and fifth bowler, had never opened in Tests before and only had any serious experience in the position [...]

Australia reached 126-1 from 30 overs. Once it was confirmed that we would get some play today, it was always likely to be a tricky spell for the batting side. Having won the toss, it was possible that Australia may bowl first to try and get amongst England. Perhaps though with 2005 on his mind, Ponting opted to bat first. As tricky as a short spell can be for the batting side, it is equally so for...

One of the interesting points surrounding the dropping of Philip Hughes by Australia is that it was announced first not via an official team release, but by Hughes himself, courtesy of his Twitter account . Hughes broke the news by tweeting; "Disappointed not to be on the field with the lads today," Hughes tweeted. "Will be supporting the guys, it's a BIG test match 4 us. Thanks 4 all...
