The batsmen cannot be blamed entirely for our bowlers inability to take wickets. The dramatic change in weather didn't help and despite losing more than half yesterday's play, the match could be over by tomorrow. Just as well. Better a quick humiliation than a prolonged one. At least it will give us more time to prepare for the warm up before the next Test. Oh wait of course, the BCCI doesn't believe in those. Boo!

It started yesterday in Oman. And a Muslim classmate from high school came home to visit. It was still mid-afternoon. Barely seconds after wishing him a generous month of fasting, I went back into auto-pilot and asked him what he would like to drink. Naturally he refused but he was kind enough to stop me before it became too embarrassing. Not that he minded much. But still. Schoolboy error. And I shouldn't make excuses, but I'm pretty sure this is my first Ramadan in Oman since we were in high school. Though truth be told, he really should've taught me a lesson and played along.
