Whatever tickles your fancy. Point and fact is You have nothing to say as you do not watch the game and do not support the team. So you are as bored as your usual self and troll this thread!

Oh my :eek:

Pupa's talking to himself :D

/leaves thread having said what I wanted to say about the state of the game

BAck to topic: I was really frantic we were on the verge of losing the game against Sri Lanka. Only a lucky edge from Peterson could save us on the end. How we got in that situation is beyond grasp, but it happens in one day'ers I presume. Maybe one day we will have a professional team and not a talented team only.

Id love to hear what JK8 has to say when SL dont make the semis hehe:). But I gotta admit he's right about the Bangladeshis being a team full of lighties...nothing wrong with that, it was actually fun watching India fall to a team of teens.

Pffft,

Come on, bringing out the choker tag? FFS.

Malinga bowled a brilliant spell, it's got nothing to do with choking.

In the end we did well to scrape home.

What i was wondering though is HAll, Kallis and Ntini knew the ball was going to be pitched full and straight. Why not bat outside the crease to negate the yorker.... anyway... done and dusted.

MAlinga has a weird style, even made Kallis and Gibs chucle about it. I presume that is so close to throwing as I ever has seen and would not be surprised if he will be spotted again.

Well i think SL is ok in terms of making the semis, SA and SL have 2 points and SL have a higher nett run rate, but they still have to face the Aussies where as SA dont... so it will be tight but I think they will they play hard not like India and the Pakis.

Bangladesh must make the semis!! (I hope they do!)

I enjoyed it for more than one reason. Good to see the development in the smaller teams progressing so well. There is some magnificent batters coming through.

I think they were giggling coz they didnt see where the damn ball was coming from and thinking to themselves how the hell did I hit that!

Windies cricket admin at fault for this.

Pricing, Pricing and again pricing. They should open up the matches like India does. Its pathetic. This Guyana game was the worst I ever watched relating to spectator contribution and the 75+ meter borders did not help the atmosphere. Was quieter than the India fields tho, the other extreme.

did u see that one scene, when they showed a portion of the stadium...
and the spectators were all grouped together under the shade areas, and only two ppl were in the sun, getting a tan... was tooo funny! but it showed how empty the stadium was!

When the world cup was here, every game at newlands and paarl was jam packed! well, at least 90% full!
