Stranded on a far-off island where one day's routine was hardly different from the next,
Daniel Defoe's Robinson Crusoe put a cross in the ground and began to make a daily notch,
hoping to wrap his mind around the passage of time.

Weeks wound by without change. Months melded into one another.
When Crusoe was rescued, he learned that even with his wooden cross,
he had not managed to accurately count the days he had spent cut off from civilisation.!!

On another island, also teeming with palm trees the Lanka attack had another day :
that seemed just like so many others they have recently endured. :-[

Younis Khan was their quick-footed tormentor this time, as he has been on other occasions.
By biding his time, and choosing each moment wisely, he moved to within a 60 runs
of scoring an unprecedented 2000 Test runs against Sri Lanka.....
