Melbourne is fantastic. The weather is sublime. We found all the cafes and pubs. The parks and public spaces make me want to be an urban planner in my next life.
We joined up with some Aussie cricket fans today and they sang the same song: "We're hoping for a good match!" "We're tired of winning so easily!", "If India wins, it will be good for cricket!" etc.
Lying, pompous, arrogant, smug, sledgers!
Let me state truly: I hope India beats you in three days by ten wickets!
I might be the first fan ever to get a lifetime ban from the Melbourne Cricket Ground for racist behaviour. No, I don't intend to throw bananas at Symonds. But whenever India scores a boundary, I will break into my favorite Christmas Carol from Boymongoose, an Indian boyband from Brisbane that makes fun of Indians. It's M-Rock's fault, he started it. When I pointed out that we could get a lifetime from the ICC's new rules, he said, "I can't get a lifetime ban for racial abuse of my own people!".
But that doesn't apply to me.
