Cricket

Does anybody on TA love this game or what ?
or do you even know what this game is ? HA
Cricket is the 2nd most popular sport in the world after soccer.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cricket

There's the world cup cricket going on now. And what saddens me most is Canadians don't even know that that they participated in the world cup. Yep CANADA played in the world CUP of cricket, something different from the usual ICE hockey n all ... Well they were out in the first round. The semi-finals are goin on now with Srilanka, New zealand, Australia, South african in em.

And Australia's been the best team for the past couple of yrs now,and probably might win this world cup now.

South Africa just got thuroughly TOUNCED today by the Aussie's in the Semi's for the World Cup. 149 all out after 43 overs, Australia caught them in 31 overs and 7 wickets to spare.

A sad day for the Bok's but they've been off for a while. All hail the damn Aussie's.

well it's Sri Lanka vs Australia now for the finals this saturday. for Sri Lanka to win this world cup, it's either they have to play really well or Australia plays shitty. But from the looks of it so far, it seems like Australia will win it.

My support went for the kiwis, the true underdogs. oh well, they're out HA. I guess my support will go for Sri-Lanka. I would truly love to watch them play this saturday like they did in the 96 world cup.

11 players on each side !!
when the team is batting, there are two batsmen at the pitch and 11 opposing members fielding and vice versa.

50 overs for each side to bat,
6 balls (pitches) for each over .....
