It's good to see that things are harmonious again in the world of cricket, in Australia at least,and that the tests are to go on.At last now , we hope , all those past players can crawl back into their shells and take their opinions (something we never ask for)with them.It makes you wonder if people like Neil Harvey must think that their past glories are threatened.They should think that the current players are keeping up the Australian tradition and be pleased for them.Plus, if what we read is true , then things were not any better in their days with the characters they had in their sides.In fact, in the long time that I have followed the game their has always been controversial characters,some were even captains.Anyway, back to the tests and here's to the record..may they win easily

All caught behind, run outs and stumpings should be referred to the third umpire for resolution. LBWs should be subject to three-challenge rule as in tennis and referred to the third umpire. This is the only way to eliminate human errors. India would have won the Sydney Test easily if this was done. Instead they face the chin music with 0-2.
