This Telegraph cartoon from a few days ago seems apt:

Except this time it's hardly England's fault. We're back to the non-pareil of incompetence, the West Indies Cricket Board.

What I can't get my head around is how they are calling the stand-in text starting on Sunday the third test, rather than the postponed-because-we-fucked-up second text. That'll mess up the statisticians!

And thanks for the cartoon - excellent!
