A good toss to lose

Someone in the pub last night pointed out the closeness of the results in this years Middlesex v Surrey Match ( win for the good guys by an innings and 52 runs) to the result in the same match last year ( innings and 44 runs).
The other point is that of the 2010 match Wisden says " Hamilton - Brown must have questioned his decision to bat ". I don't suppose he was overjoyed this year about his decision to field. Sometimes you just can win!
