Actually I haven't a clue, so I'll just go with what worked today.

Oh and: 277

Yeah, this won't last too long!
Would have been more fun if elimination was triggered by having both questions wrongly answered.
I mean, everyone was expecting a faster pitch. And even then, it took a pretty freak piece of fielding to stop Vince getting a ton.

I guess it is a good thing, things didn't turn out as 24 out of 28 of us thought.
I just dislike being out of this LMS competition. Confident though that another one will start this Test :) .

No, no would've won on the 1st day of Brisbane in 2010 and 2013 as well, so don't think you can really say it was just because of the pitch.

Anyway, yes, no and 278 for me.

Yeah, maybe everyone could get 2 strikes, but lose 1 for each incorrect answer? So you can still go out in one round, but have a bit of slack. Maybe it would mean too many people getting through, though? I'd imagine a round like this one will be something of on anomaly in terms of how many people it saw eliminated.

That would make each game take way too long.

Well with both sides falling in something of a heap since halfway through the morning session, congrats to fredfertang for a (very) quickfire win.

New round starts at stumps tonight.

Game 2: Day 3 Brisbane

Q1: Will Australia still be batting after tea?
Q2: Will Anderson have three wickets or more by stumps?
