    Group D - Pakistan, West Indies, Zimbabwe, Ireland

    Interesting innings from Nazir - 6, and then out. He's a dead ringer for a mate of mine from back in high school. On that subject, it's probably been said before, but has anybody ever seen Rao and Irfan Pathan in the same room? I think the West Indians might win from here. Kind of a weird...

    I am going through hell' - Shoaib

    Nah, it's more of the "hurry up, is this ever going to end?" variety.

    Group D - Pakistan, West Indies, Zimbabwe, Ireland

    Yes, Ramdin gone stumped, foot still in the air. There's always a fair chance of a WI batting collapse.

    Group D - Pakistan, West Indies, Zimbabwe, Ireland

    These guys are rollicking along nicely at the moment, around five an over through the last nine or so. Pretty much all Samuels though. Some of the Pakistan throwing to the keeper has turned what might have been some close calls into fairly comfortable ones.

    Group D - Pakistan, West Indies, Zimbabwe, Ireland

    Couple of fair clouts from Samuels here. Could go any second.

    Group D - Pakistan, West Indies, Zimbabwe, Ireland

    God knows what Kaneria was appealing for there.
  7. Slow Love™

    Group D - Pakistan, West Indies, Zimbabwe, Ireland

    I'll go all out 197.

    Group D - Pakistan, West Indies, Zimbabwe, Ireland

    Haha, looks like a rich orange to me. Is there just more of it around? Just never leaped out to me before.

    Group D - Pakistan, West Indies, Zimbabwe, Ireland

    Hasn't Lara been batting down the order a fair bit lately? Seems like a regular gameplan in recent times.

    Group D - Pakistan, West Indies, Zimbabwe, Ireland

    On the Pakistan strip? I think it's something of an improvement, it's got some kind of blue sheen to it, but still very recognizable as green. Is the orange new to the WC? I haven't noticed it before, but they could possibly increase that a bit... It's mainly the lighter-olive color that...

    Group D - Pakistan, West Indies, Zimbabwe, Ireland

    I try not to be too influenced by culture, color or creed, mate. :p But yeah, it's an horrendous get-up, in those Derwent pencil tins they call that color Puke. At least with the West Indian pink gear of the 70's, it was like "I dare you to laugh".

    CW awards for start of March

    Yeah, it's the kind of thing you do when you're struggling for a winner, which is a bit strange, given I expect a fair few of the awards committee would have read that thread. Oh well, you can't catch everything. Haven't seen much of Venter, so he/she could be excellent, but I'd have had...

    Group D - Pakistan, West Indies, Zimbabwe, Ireland

    Just able to tune in... Very precious to get Gayle early, from Pakistan's perspective. Looks like Chanders' has been struggling to score, after me talking up his quick-scoring ability in another thread. I seem to often find I'm rooting for Pakistan, but I'm barracking for the West Indians here.

    World Cup Avatar Challenges

    A thoughtless wager I made as to England's chances of winning the CB series, a game or two before the finals. Though it probably wouldn't have made much difference if I'd given it a lot of thought, really.

    Commentators for the World Cup?

    Oh, ****....

    ICC name World Cup Umpires

    Haha, not sure what's inspired that wave of tale-telling, but TBF I don't expect much from a Cambridge toff like Brumby. He hasn't gone to the school of hard knocks, and learned about tact, like you and I have.

    Headlines You Want To See During The WC

    Haha, some of irfan's among the best, IMO. FWIW, this instance aside, I think I'm yet to say "dire". People, for the love of god, can we please stop the Inzy eating ones.

    World Cup Avatar Challenges

    Haha, I may as well not bother, I think I'm stuck with Arjuna until June or summat.

    I am going through hell' - Shoaib

    Haha, like Shoaib would know what hell was like. Hell is having a doctor pinching, manhandling and scraping off parts of your organ (grand organ in my case), and insisting that the symptoms you are experiencing is most likely a disease as a result of extramarital ***, and that it'd be better...

    The Caribbean is the greatest place on earth

    Shocking form from a primary school teacher, really. I so envy you right now. I would love to go to the Caribbean, World Cup or no. Hope you're having a fantastic time, mate, sounds like you are.
