Any cricket fans out there? Since this board is mostly composed of Americans I doubt it but you never know...worth some hope at least! :lol

Ahhh....excellent but not excellent, if you know what I mean? :lol (I'm Australian ;))

Into cricket much? I think we're playing over in NZ in a few months.
 
I'm a massive cricket fan! I've supported the Black Caps during the past 5 years so that gives you some idea of how committed i am! Yeah we're playing you guys now, how about that last T20I eh?! What a finish. What's your prediction for the ODI series? Apart from a 5-0 whitewash of course.

Yeah, what was the result? Didn't we win by 6 WICKETS! :thumbsup

I'm betting on a 5-0 win to us! :thumb.

:P

Wonder who had the last laugh? LOL!

I'm sure Tate will be disciplined for that....if not, well who really did[/i] get the last laugh, eh? :D

Haha, that was from the second one which we won thank you very much!!!. McCullum got himself a nice T20I century - the second ever!
Ahhh....well funnily enough I didn't hear about that one on the radio. :D

I predict a 3-2 result to the Australians.
That sounds about fair.
Let's see what happens.


BTW, you guys should tour over here more. It seems we're always going over to NZ. :confused

We need all the help we can get quite frankly. It's just embarrassing when we play over there.
Well that's understandable.

But last time (must be at least 4 or 5 years ago now) you came over here I saw Oram smack sooooo many 6's into the crowd, it was so good to watch. I don't think it's televised free-to-air if it's being played in NZ. Oh well. :shrug. We'll just keep those ashes from the English. That's good enough for me. :lol
 
Yeah on our day we can be pretty devastating! But we aren't the most consistent. For example, Brendon McCullum scored the second ever T20I century in that 2nd match but you could probably put money on him not performing in the next match.

Have you had any experience of fantasy cricket? Haven't explored it too much but think i might enjoy the process.
 
I grew up in England for some time during my childhood, and got into watching cricket. Here in the States, no one knows what it is... Every now and then I catch a piece of a match on the Internet, but that's rare. I do miss it :verysad
 
lol! :biglol

I really don't understand the game, not that I've tried too hard.

a jamaican coworker plays it. the afghanis love it, i have seem them fight over a loss. ridiculous.

at least were not talking about golf. :crazy
 
Cricket is the kind of game you really have to be brought up in to enjoy. But it truly must be the sport of Gods. :D

What I don't understand is why Americans love baseball....I just am so uninterested in it. Same kind of thing with cricket.

And this is how it finished:

49.2 Bollinger to Styris, SIX, length ball from Bollinger and Styris just hits through the line and over mid off for six! What a finish and what an innings from Styris!

HAH!!
