Australia were not able to pull off the miracle comeback, although the tail-enders made a surprisingly high score as they sort of let loose and swung away. In the end, Australia managed to score 340, which is more than I expected, before the last wicket fell and India won by 72 runs. Thus India ends Australia's winning streak at sixteen games for the second time -- it was India that stopped Australia's previous 16-game streak.

So now I'm back to only having one screen going, instead of having both the cricket and the tennis running. And speaking of tennis, I'm going back to an amazing match where Roger Federer is showing signs of being human instead of the amazing tennis machine.

This morning I woke up and turned on the TV. I saw tennis, and assumed that ESPN were replaying one of the many exciting matches from yesterday. Then I saw the LIVE bug in the corner of the screen and realized that they were still playing at 3 AM. What a match, and what a day yesterday was.

Because I stayed through the end of the Lleyton Hewitt - Marcos Baghdatis match (another five-setter), I was late heading down to the San Jose Doubletree for the CostumeCon 26 committee meeting, but was fortunately only five minutes late.

Now I can sit back, relax a bit, and watch the Australian Open without bouncing back and forth between it and the cricket.
