When I think of wolf packs, I don't think of dogs, I think of German subs.
Anyway. Enough comedy.
What is missing from this article?
The American pitching to the converted
WHEN the Australian team was denounced for "hunting like a pack of wild dogs", fielding coach Mike Young turned to the players and said, "Well done."
Truth was, he had asked them to apply the "wolf pack" theory in the field, but wild dogs would do.
For a few summers now, Young's cries of "atta boy" have sounded loudly at Australian cricket training. The broad baseball phrasing is strangely out of place in this most sacred of national sports. It jars like a Muslim prayer in a Catholic cathedral.
Maybe the IPL will do the work for them. Who wants to pay $$$ for someone who can't catch? Pietersen dropped six in a row and just signed for $4 mill + though, so maybe we can live in hope. Where's Scott? I thought he would be all over this.

I saw Pietersen catch one the other day.
I did!
Dunno what's happened to Wicky. He hasn't been around for months. Maybe he's hibernating.
