Semi Finals

[Loony BoB]

Haha. Most of my friends have Foxtel, but none of them really like cricket that much, so I doubt they'd appreciate me being at their house till 3 am or so.

Bring an offering of pizza, can't go far wrong. They can go to bed while you stay glued to the screen.

Yes, a bit nervous. United playing today as well in the semis of the Champions League means I'll be channel hopper master supreme. After NZ lost the league, yachting and cricket in the weekend and United drew at Old Trafford, I'm hoping for big things from both teams. I don't think I could take more losing.

Any people from Sri Lanka and New Zealand starting to feel nerves about the semi final? I know I sure am!

If we (NZ) win, we win. If we loseI will just go about life as normal. Nothing to be nervous about. I will be very happy if NZ win, but if we lose I will be able to work over the weekend and earn some much needed dosh.

And if we win you'll be doing the celebratory binge?

Dear Mr. Jason
One Thing may be correct my english knowledge not good as yours because I m a pure Sri Lankan My home town is Kaluthara I m working at Colombo every day I m traveling by Bus or
train to Colombo as a sri lankans we talk lot about cricket we watch and I have played school level cricket I m expressing my view as true sri lankan. But I have doubt about your nationality If you are real sri lankan you should be Ranjith Fernando type Sri Lankan (Condak Nathi ) Oya try coranne Buwa wennade

Unnahe liyanna pilithuru - lankawe aya hari souththu videhen me minissu ganang karanna thamay -

Translation - rpc fernando - accuses me of being back boneless Sri Lankan.

I replied that his posts are making SriLankans perceived in a pretty mediocre way in this forum.

It will also be interesting to see who opens the bowling with Bond. Does anybody think Patel will do the job? Or maybe come on after Franklin gets pummeled by Sanath?

Franklin to get Jayasuriya early.


You heard me!

 

[KiWiNiNjA]

And if we win you'll be doing the celebratory binge?

Hmmmm, a binge isnt any different than the last month for me really. Pretty much a month long binge.

If we win I'm gonna be in a little trouble. Im supposed to be working from Saturday. 12 hour days for like 9 days (7am-1pm, 4pm-10pm). In order to watch the game I'm gonna have to skip a nights sleep. And doing the job just on normal sleep is hard enough.

Yes, as nervous as a sheep in Southland

 

[KiWiNiNjA]

You heard me!

Hopefully. Its either that or total carnage. Jayasuriya will love Franklin's tasty pies wide outside off

Short, wide long hop? Or a full, wide half valley?

Yes, as nervous as a sheep in Southland

Nice saying though.

Can we please keep all personal accusations out of this forum.

Can we also please keep all language in English, it is against the rules of CricketWeb forums to post in any other language.

I'm sorry Jason, but you have got to have alot of time in your hands to bully someone over the internet. It involves no exposure of self, and you are risking nothing. If you think you are some badass, think again.Its so sad that people got bullied so much on the internet that they killed themselves.

I think you were a bit harsh on him actually Jason but this is the game thread so let's try to stick to the topic

 

[Smudge]

So much to catch up on in the last few hours - and so much of it is terrible. Aside from SJS's post, which summed up my thoughts, although personally, if NZ has to bat first, we're done for, as far as I'm concerned.

Which brings up an interesting point really, if this broke into a bit of biffo.

Who would win? Bats and balls are included of course.

Half the New Zealand team are giants, and McCullum looks fiesty. Sri Lanka wouldn't have stood a chance if Lou "Looks like a bulldog" Vincent was there.

I think in a big televised fight.

New Zealand $1.40

Sri Lanka $2.60

I have actually seen McCullum in a fight - outside a Dunedin bar in 2000. Like a true South Dunedin battler, he used clever tactics, by baiting the other guy, before Bazza's mates came in from the side with fists and feet flying. Anyhoo...

No when I come home Lara Bingle will ask me: SO WHERE THE BLODDY HELL ARE YOU??

Congratulations - you have a TV.

Australia Vs South Africa the preview

Australia's win over New Zealand was not just a win, its a statement for whoever plays them in the Semi Finals and possible Final. Win convincingly. Australia are two wins away from retaining the world cup, two more games for crickets greatness. Anyone standing in Australia's way will be dealt with very severely. CRICKETS IMMORTALITY AWAITS MY TOUCH

Immortality has taken out a restraining order.

Any people from Sri Lanka and New Zealand starting to feel nerves about the semi final? I know I sure am!

I'm not sure whether to be nervous or not. I'm even contemplating not getting up to watch it (it's only 4 hours away from starting anyway) as I reckon I'm a bad luck charm.

I'm sorry Jason, but you have got to have alot of time in your hands to bully someone over the internet. It involves no exposure of self, and you are risking nothing.

Don't suppose you know a guy called Rodgie?

 

[Loony BoB]

Again, personal accusations, keep them out of this thread... there's no need to have any further discussion on the matter, especially not here in this thread. Stick to the semifinals, people, they're only a few hours away!

 

[JASON]

Apologies if I was harsh on Filocricket or rpc fernando.

Did not intend any harshness but replying to the harshness directed at me.

 

[MoxPearl]

I would rather see us bat first than second

On the green tonite ?
