Oh dear, poor punctuation as well now.

You must like staying in after class.

2-1 down with only one test to go, could have been a massive change from result of one test.

Whereas 5-0................well, fat lady was singing with weeks to spare. :)

so you thinking winning by a run would be an easy win. :lol:

Come on, you're not even trying.
I don't have to try when its so simple - with one test to go, the series was in the balance - hardly "easy".
As always, you can't look at the big picture. Do you think winning by one run would be an easy win? Do you think winning by an innings would be an easy win?

You're clutching at straws when imagining a 5-0 series win would be won by one run every test for a start, but 5-0 is 5-0 whereas the 3-1 you're banging on about was in the balance with one test to play. I bet before the last test in that series you were worried it could end up 2-2.

Merely making the point that winning 5-0 might not be easy, but winning by an innings always is.
