Anybody here plays Cricket?

[Halberdierv2]

just wondering... although this most likely will be mostly non-Americans.

if you dont know what it is, but want to, check here.

if you know what it is, and follow it, go here.(then again, if you do follow it, you probably already know where it goes to.)

 

[GoldShadow]

I can't stand cricket. It's as boring as baseball.

 

[crewster]

I play a lot of cricket in the summer but I don't follow it. I'm British!

 

[Mini Mic]

I love a good game of Cricket, I'm going to be working at the boxing day test this year (Melbourne, Australia) in the corporate area.

 

[Vyse]

Man I'm going to be watching the boxing day test aaaaaaaaaaaaaallllll day.
And it's going to be good : 3

For this year's secret santa, one of the guys I work with got a plastic cricket set, so tommorow shall be filled with epic indoor cricket lolz.

 

[Mini Mic]

A friend of mine broke his wrist playing indoor soccer last week. Naturally be berated him to no end.

 

[CAOTIC]

I play indoor cricket in a league. much better than on the field. yes, on the field its possibly the most boring sport on earth... but indoor is good yo!

Last smashfest we had at DJ Cat's, we were about ready to head down to the batting cages for some cricket when those massive storms started shredding the place up.

It was a good thing we didn't go straight away lol.

I am American but I live in India which is like the Cricket capital of Earth

It is like the only sport played here

 

[Vyse]

India must be pretty pleased with itself right now considering its latest performance.

>.>

England is the cricket capital. Followed by Australier and India.
I am a batter but my bowling is fairly decent.

 

[kigbariom]

I am a bowler, because I pitch when I play baseball.
Just the other week there was a fund-raiser for a bank at this mall and I bowled 60mph!
That is good for a bowl

 

[Shy Guy 86]

I hate cricket, it really sucks >_> and its boring, a match can last 8 hours or such

I don't play baseball.

the India-england test that just finished is probably one of the finest I know of, considering what it meant to India. however, my stonghold is not in the East Indies, but the West Indies, who had the test match messed up due to rain.

and for all those who can't stand the loooooong test matches, there'e something called 20/20 cricket. that is great for an afternoon.

 

[Bowser King]

The India-England test was great. They seemed like they were going to lose but Sehwag, Yuvraj and Sachin pulled through. I feel sad for England, first destroyed in the ODI and now this

[Vyse]

Don't feel bad, England like to rub it in everyone's face when they do win.

 

[CAOTIC]

yall should watch AFL instead cus its the best code on earth

The only cricket teams even worth mentioning are Australia, India, England, South Africa and maybe Pakistan. The rest suck so hard they're not even worth mentioning.

 

[Blazey]

^True that. Also, you might be working with my sister that day. She's been working in the corporate area on Boxing Day for the past two years (I think. At least last year).

I'll be going to the Australia vs. South Africa one-dayer some time in January. It's like the only one dayer in Melbourne this cricket season so hurray.

So true. I remember watching Canada in the world cup . Oh well, I always rooted for India.

One of the funniest matches has to go to Australia vs USA. USA made, I think, 58 runs all out. There were only around 3-4 people actually there rooting for USA.

Yeah, that was such a good match.

Too true. However the order goes: England, Australier, India, South Africa and last Pakistan.

You seem to have mixed up England and Australia.

 

[crewster]

Um.. No I havn't.

 

[Bowser King]

...and India and England.

Also, it's not fair to rank countries like that. There should be a test and ODI section.

TEST: India, Australia, England, South Africa, Pakistan
ODI: Australia, India, England, SA, Pakistan

[Hobobloke]

I have never liked cricket and I find it somewhat annoying that here in Australia most people love it, but each to his own I guess. Also crewster Australians know how to spell England, learn how to spell Australia (not how there is an a on the end not er

Whoops, soz Ausies!
