Aussies /winning World Cup?

[Bajanne]

Well, the Windies are out of the running, so the team I am now backing is the Aiussies.  Just finished watching the match in Antigua where the Aussies showed the English how to play Cricket.
Symonds did an excellent job.  He would just swing - sixes and fours!

[RichardMEL]

Yes it was sensational! I sat up ALL NIGHT (it started 11:15pm and finished about 7:30am) and watched this game and it was really good...

I must say I love that swimming pool there at that ground. How much fun would that be?!!! I so wish I could have been there.

It's always good to beat the poms!! AUSSIE AUSSIE AUSSIE!!! OI OI OI

Personally i think new Zealand and South Africa are the big guns along with Australia. I'd like to see an Aus vs. NZ final! That would be awesome.

C'mon Aussies C'Mon C'Mon ! (for you americans thats an old aussie cricket chant  from the 70's lol)

So you can't get into men playing with sticks, but you can handle them playin with balls, well OK if that's the way you like it ....................(Slowly stepping away from this thread) LOL

 

[George Jung]

LOL.......good one tamara!

Rolando....what do you have to say for yourself mate?

[RichardMEL]

It is true Cricket, like Vegemite, is an aquired taste - and it's not for everyone.. but neither is baseball.

As for sxoccer it's OK but I far prefer the action of Aussie Rules football, but hardly anyone here except a certain Carlton supporting young lady would understand but hey each to their own... I don't see any joy in boxing or ice hockey or horse racing.. but heaps of people do

[tamara]

Carn the Blues (thats Carlton)

[Sluff]

go aussie go

[RichardMEL]

Well Tamara now you know why I'm a cat lover!!!

well Tamara,

if you think that way, then you must know that life is in the balls not the stick, the stick is only a vessel to get there... balls are the producers of life,  (have you heard of women's crickets?  ) besides isn't cricket played with balls also, (I expected that answer from anyone else, but not from you girl, goes to show me not all girls play nice) LOL

While I was on dialysis yesterday, I watched the match - Bangladesh vs England.  And the match was being played in my country, Barbados.  Bangladesh tried really well, but they didn't have enough runs in their innings.
Yes, I really like the pools they have on the cricket grounds.
Cricket is so hi-tech these days.  Nothing like cricket in the 60's, 70's - third umpire and all!

Been watching it on the telly Bajanne, that's a great idea with the pools at the grounds, wish we had them here !

[RichardMEL]

The cameramen like the pools too.. they can keep finding more and more bikini clad girls to focus in on

Ausies, Ausies everywhere, and not a drop to drink!

[Bajanne]

Not a drop to drink?  In the Caribbean?  In the RUM MECCA?
I notice a new T-shirt over here - Time Flies - When You Having Rum!

[tamara]

Australia have became the first team in World Cup history to wear the one-day crown for a third successive time as Adam Gilchrist's 149 carried them to a 53-run Duckworth-Lewis win over Sri Lanka.

Aussies win World Cup YAY ! 

[charee]

Go Aussies go

[Bajanne]

Belated congrats to the Aussies as they win over Sri Lanka, in my beautiful country of Barbados!

[Sluff]

Next year the Americans will take it! Just stand by..

[Bajanne]

Sorry, Sluff!  Until you guys learn to have a proper teatime, you will not make it.  You dumped loads of tea in Boston, remember?

[kitkatz]

But you all TAXED us without representation!
