Why did the chicken cross the road?

According to Le Chatelier:
 
The chicken crossed the road because there were too many moles of chicken
on the reactants side of the road equilibrium.

DY,
Interesting way to 'ass'ess the hardness  (of the pitch).

On a different note, maybe tapping it with the hammer and then observing the hardness may be better than what I've seen most cricketers do - place their palm on the turf and try to press it.
Seems like we are gonna get a BOUNCY pitch by Atkinson as per reports.
