Gday Prairians and Welcome to Club Prairie Fire, Season 9 episode 9. We are super fond of tequila, Tabasco and the Duckworth Lewis Stern System. This episode I am calling… “Vaughany’s prediction was right… at least on our show.” That’s right folks, 3-1 the mighty Australians have defeated India to claim the border Gavaskar trophy and our super soothsayer Michael “the 5th day sucks” Vaughan predicted it. What he didn’t predict was the epic spice that the series and in particular the 3 day, yes your heard it right, 3 day 5th test would toss up. Not that long ago people were saying test match cricket was dull and boring, well hasn’t that turned around. Find another sport where 19 year olds with poorly formed patchy moustaches pick fights with the best bowler and the once best batsmen in the world. Let us say it loud and proud…Test match Cricket is back baby!
