	New Zealand have been royally rodgered by the Windies at the 20/20 in Florida...... Fingers crossed for the 1 dayers and tests Hadron

	I'm reminded again of something Short wrote recently, approximately "The biggest fallacy in chess is the quasi-religious belief in the primacy of the opening."

Hopefully this does not end in a draw. Update: This is a very close game now.

	27/03/12: Sri Lanka v England: 1st Test: Galle, Sri Lanka Sri Lanka 1st innings: 289/8 [Mahela Jayawardena 168 n.o.] New Zealand v South Africa: 3rd Test: Wellington, NZ South Africa 1st innings: 474/9 dec. New Zealand 1st innings: 275/9 (effectively 275 a.o.) South Africa 2nd innings: 189/3 dec. New Zealand 2nd innings: 200/6 Draw What I am interested in is if England can avoid horrendous batting in the 2nd innings. Update: Amazing draw by NZ today.
