Really the only hitch was the MCG Pitch



Mystery confounds at the G surrounds the pitch

Crumbled wickets tumbled so quick got a stitch

Far too spicy the unfair square did jar & bewitch

Russian roulette regret net humbled willow flitch

Was cricket’s largest grounds really the only hitch


Too dicey to try defence too pricey.. that's their pitch

Foolish pretence was hatched by players who snitch

Curator of this thatched turf was the ghoulish glitch

Moderator of surf the scorched earth torched must ditch


Batters so dismal no in abysmal nick will still bit*h

Madhatters trick they must scratch that ersatz itch

Say only way they will play gotta just flick the switch

Stats are for prats.. the caveat everyone bats kitsch  

So to just then pick on the pitch.. well it is a bit rich!
