Quality box. My left-arm pace was rusty, too much swing, couldn't pitch them on the stumps. Warney, 700 wickets (and counting!), gave me a nickname. "Extras," as in wide and no ball.

Her performance raises melodrama to a feature-length epiphany. No actress today could play a courtesan's self-sacrifice at such a high and perfect pitch. None would dare...
