Ceratonia Jul 2015 2:39pm, 15 Jul 2015 2,374 posts	0 Ceratonia Haddin's daughter, who was 1 or 2 at the time, had cancer about 18 months ago, necessitating, chemo, operations, bone marrow transplant and appeared to be in remission. So "personal reasons" for missing an ashes test might unfortunately turn out to be quite serious. Let's hope not.

I imagine once the sun comes out and the pitch flattens, it'll be a long day..... this is it, if they get a big score..we'll have to be on our game........Vaughan has said all along, the results will go with the toss
