Editor's note
Hello Friday! Last day of the working year for many, and the time when you get the entire office to yourself for others. Sorry for the belated sending of this newsletter, I was struck down by a karaoke-based flu outbreak (such an illness does exist I learnt). We will be skipping this newsletter next week and will return in the new year overloaded on Test cricket, I can't wait. A happy holidays and a joyous new year to all. -- Chris
