Dave Warner's dash is famous

It was the glitch on an otherwise imposing record.Australia had all day, but eking is not the modern cricketer's way. Dave Warner's dash is famous, but Clarke outscored him in a partnership of 159 that reaffirmed Australia's grip on this match as surely as Clarke, with his repeated rotation of gloves, made sure of his grip on his bat.cheap Whisky stonesOne of their subsidiary feats was to neuter off-spinner Graeme Swann, mostly by knocking him off his length. In three overs immediately after lunch, Swann was despatched for 38.When at last he claimed Clarke for his first wicket in the match, he was already 200 runs in arrears. Assuredly, Swann will have better days, but he ought not have in this series the sort of day he had at Lord's in July, when he was a cliff and Australia a herd of lemmings.The tension leached out of the match in the afternoon. England suffered the usual misfortunes of an oppressed team two blown referrals, two missed chances, a couple of overthrows and the lower order Australian batsmen went on a run-fest.The psychological advantage in cricket is overrated. In four of the past five Ashes series, the first Test has been misleading, but some feats stand the test of time.

Did the prime minister really dismiss all that "green crap", as the Sun claimed? Downing Street denies it, and I suspect that David Cameron has been the victim either of the Sun's inaccuracy or of overenthusiastic team members assuming they know what he thinks. Either way, someone is running real risks with his image, cheap Soapstone Whisky Stones manufacturersone of the most valuable Tory polling assets.Cameron was certainly sincere when, that fresh spring day, I walked with him from Downing Street to the Department of Energy and Climate Change and he promised the "greenest government ever". He is not just a Notting Hill metrosexual: he also hails from that home counties green Tory tradition that first gave us an Environment Department under the Heath government.He's walked the talk, too.George Osborne came away with the consolation prize of a review in 2014.The tensions are legion. Cameron worked hard to land some wind turbine factories, and was put out when the chancellor went public, bang in the middle of some delicate wooing of foreign investors, with his heavily spun doubts about greenery.
