Blinking heck ! 21 for 4? What's going on in Leeds? Is the Matrix slipping? Someone tell our fine cricketing gentlemen that they are playing South Africa here. And South Africa are Quite Good.

please, don't remind me of what's going on. It's all very sad.

And yes, we are meant to be quite good.

That Zondeki did a good job with Kirsten, though. Nice work. I'm still not convinced by Kirtley. Still.. could be a good game.

Ill never understand this thing you call.... cricket.

It's a satire of sexual politics in the context of imperial supremacy. See See Anne Mcclintock, 'Imperial Leather: Race, Gender, and Sexuality in the Colonial Contest'.
