It was a draw

The greatest Cricket Fan in this web site is the owner and the founder Chris Maunder[^], who as we speak is working hard on a Site logo which will depict Bob with a Cricket Bat.:cool:

Oh man that was great. A draw is rare enough but the tumble at the end was just thrilling.

How can you hate a sport? Dislike sure, find uninteresting, yes, but hate? I find soccer to be dull and uninteresting but I don't hate it.

The most interesting about Cricket seems to be it's tea times and the length of the game. But I must say I've never seen a cricket game. When we see a glimt on tv in sweden it's usually because some kind of animal has occupied the court. :) 1: Football (soccer), 2: Football (soccer), 3: perhaps Volleyball

Ok, hate was a bit too harsh, just trying to emphasize my point and for football, yes I share the same opinion as yourself.

No, the same! I used to play ice hockey and other ice sports too a long time ago but football is really it.

Did you get to see it? I know Ireland was playing but I though they had laws against cricket over there :-D That match is probably going to be one of the top matches this World cup. It's only the 3rd time there was a draw (the other two being our two mess-ups) in World cup cricket. Heart stopping stuff, go Ireland!

Dad always thought laughter was the best medicine, which I guess is why several of us died of tuberculosis. I can picture in my mind a world without war, a world without hate. And I can picture us attacking that world, because they'd never expect it.

Cricket's not for me, I'd much rather watch Rugby Union.

The good things about cricket: - it seems to be a real funny sport, whose games can last more than a day. - it made me discover some countries I did even know the existence (indeed, cricket thread always start with "Have you seen the game Swafilia vs. Guandogonlia yesterday ? Awesome !) The bad thing about cricket is : - Lounge threads about cricket are, with those from Link2006, the only threads for which I cannot even start to understand the single word about. - Threads about crickets often tend after a few posts to finish in Swafilian or Guandogonlian, which makes it even harder to start and understand what they are bout. So I am definitely a great fan of cricket, especially in the lounge :-D
