England moves to #1 in Test cricket

England positively SCHOOLED India in the 3rd Test of the their four Test series in England. I lamented that a four Test series left open the possibility of a tie, but England has shut the door on that possibility, following up on two good wins with this totally dominant win. They've got good batting and good bowling working together.

England wins convincingly


This most recent win at Edgbaston (buy a vowel) was by an innings and 242 runs, which is like lapping the field three times. Alastair Cook had 294 runs, nearly a TRIPLE century in cricket jargon. It basically means he hit just about everything he saw long and fast.

Impressive.
