Does anyone care about the cricket?

Am i just being Un-Australian, or is everyone else completely over the cricket like i am?

There might be a few things happening in the games. The Sydney test ended in excitement.

The WACA test sees Hogg out for lightning fast Tait, and debutant Rogers in for the injured Hayden.

But are we all past caring?

All the incidents off the pitch are really souring the game. Andrew Symonds was specially vilified as a "monkey" by Indian Harbhajan Singh. But a word of warning for the Indian spinner. People in glass houses...

The Indians fell one step short of calling the Aussies a pack of cheats, and then demanded an umpire get sent home for a couple of bad decisions.

Worst of all, the ICC have bowed down to the Indians and sent umpire Steve Bucknor packing.

But all of this is just a side show, since no one can beat Australia anyway!

This series is descending into farce and dragging cricket down with it.

So is everyone out there completely over it? Or am I just being Un-Australian?

Over to you...
