This is exhausting.

This legend gets her name etched into history. Alana King bowling in a test match from the Shane Warne end at the MCG. Can’t get better than that. #Ashes #WAshes 🏏

The cricket gods have obliged. Alana King has 5 for. Queen Alana the MCG Honours board deservedly awaits. #Ashes

So with 1 wicket to go to end the game, will the umpires extend play by 30 mins if we reach end of play for today at 10pm & by some miracle Eng survive?

The real competition in this #Ashes test - who will get the 5 for, Gardner or King. Both deserving. My preference is King, as she has been the bowler of the series.

One more wicket for Queen Alana & the MCG honor board awaits. The cricket gods are paying attention & complying. #Ashes

Queen Alana needs 3 more wicket for a 5 for. Please comply cricket gods.

As expected, Aus came out trying to add quick runs but all out with only 18 additional runs. Aus 1st innings total 440. Credit where credit is due, Ecclestone bowled well this morning & cleaned up the tail, with Filer’s help. #Ashes

This is why nuclear is a bullshit option. It’s there to extend coal & gas lifespan, not to seriously address climate change.
