Final.

[Matt79]

hang on the game is going to continue now!

Now officially the strangest thing in sports I've ever seen.

As an upside, I haven't officially lost the bet yet.

.....

How about Malinga pulling a Gibbs tomorrow if the game does continue ?????
Wouldn't that be a sight to remember !!!!!

 

[BoyBrumby]

What an absolute joke this is.

Fittingly turd ending to a disappointing tournament, sad to say.

 

[Fiery]

Fair-play - if Ponting had only given young Watto a fair chance, it might not have come to this!

He batted him at 5 and he's bowled the most number of overs. What else could Ponting have done for him?

If both sides want the game to end, but the umpires don't, why don't Sri Lanka leave the ball then wonder into the middle of the pitch?

Fine maybe?

 

[simmy]

Come on Malinga, win this game!!

 

[Jamee999]

Well, congratulations Australia.

No matter how farcical this end is, you've deserved to win this World Cup, as you played the best cricket. Well done.

Absolutely !!!!!

Hang on, Dar referring the stumping to the 3rd umpire because he can't see the friggin pitch from square leg!

 

[roseboy64]

Malinga out, I'd assume.

 

[Matt79]

Damn, true!

 

[Trigger_Tiger]

.....

Where's the Lankan version of Lance Klusener ?

 

[Jamee999]

Malinga out!

Nobody cares!

Nobody can see!

This is ****ing stupid!

 

[simmy]

How can it be stupid if they're following the rules. The rules may be stupid then but I certainly can't blame the umpires.

I am not. The people running the scorecard said "CONGRATS AUSTRALIA".

The groundsman were trying to bring out the stage for the final ceremony.

The TV coverage said "Australia win the WC".

^^This is more the stupidity i was talking about.

Should refer every no ball decision to the third umpire as well with this much light.

 

[pasag]

Lol at this.

 

[Trigger_Tiger]

.....

Would be least surprised to see Effigies of Malcolm Speed for sale tomorrow !!!!!

 

[Jamee999]

Only cricket could confuse everyone so much at the final of the World Cup.

ROFL @ Nicholas. Dilhara Fernando DID come to the wicket.

Done - one month hey? So on 1 June it can come down.

Was worth it - I maintain!
