Match Thread: WC '07 Final - Australia vs Sri Lanka - Page 17

Sri Lanka lost all my support after they gave up the match before the last ball. Oh don't give me that stupid excuse of the light being so bad. If I'd been there, I would have never accepted and vowed to fight till the very last ball, even if I turned completely blind. That's the difference between Aus and other nations. If Aus would have been in SL's place, I can gurantee that they wouldn't give up, even if they knew they were down and out completely.

loool... comic show going on!

Malinga to score 10 sixes now and SL will win! :-)

The umpires are forcing SL to finish off the 3 overs. -

cricman · #**404** April 28, 2007, 05:18 PM

OMG 3 overs are gonna be bowled tomorrow

One World · #**405** April 28, 2007, 05:18 PM

Jawayardene has proved he's a real lion.

OZGOD · #**407** April 28, 2007, 05:19 PM

Now the OZ have been told they can't bowl the fast bowlers or the light will be offered to the batsmen and they might go off again.

Jayawardene was told to choose between playing out the 3 overs tonight or tomorrow, and he chose tonight.

Whatsoever, its good to see SL atleast tried to fight it out till the end.

*AsifTheManRahman* · #**411** April 28, 2007, 05:21 PM

oh man, the icc, its match referees, umpires and cricket as a whole are such jokers. i guess following the game makes me a joker too.

like i said, cricket is a sad, sad game.

One World · #**412** April 28, 2007, 05:21 PM

this must be the lowest overs in a session in the history of wc cricket

OZGOD · #**413** April 28, 2007, 05:21 PM

Out stumped possibly but it was too dark for Dar to see, so decision goes to the 3rd umpire.

OZGOD · #**414** April 28, 2007, 05:22 PM

Now the muppets are trying to decide if this is out.

israr · #**415** April 28, 2007, 05:22 PM

Cricket needs to find a solution for rain.

Miraz · #**416** April 28, 2007, 05:22 PM

WC is finally ending in a farce.

cricman · #**417** April 28, 2007, 05:23 PM

I'd really like to see 6 X 6 in this over, plz

Bancan · #**418** April 28, 2007, 05:23 PM

cricket is way too long. 20-20 is the best.

One World · #**419** April 28, 2007, 05:25 PM

a beautiful day was ruined by the pen and paper

OZGOD · #**420** April 28, 2007, 05:25 PM

Atherton is having a rant at Aleem Dar for giving that a wide.

OZGOD · #**421** April 28, 2007, 05:26 PM

LOL they just showed how dark it is at the Kensington Oval without the cameras enhancing the light - it's bloody DARK.

cricman · #**422** April 28, 2007, 05:26 PM

Again, Congratulations Australia 2007 Cricket World Cup Champions

OZGOD · #**423** April 28, 2007, 05:27 PM

Finally comes to a close! OZ "officially" win by 53 runs.

cricket_pagol · #**424** April 28, 2007, 05:28 PM

One of the commentator was saying that is so dark that they cannot clearly identify the players anymore.

Good move by Jaywardena to ask his players to come back.

OZGOD · #**425** April 28, 2007, 05:28 PM

Nice exchange between McGrath and Vaas - two great exponents of line and length.
