I'm fromtheuk, my parents are from Pakistan, and Pakistan have won the World Cup for the second time.

I feel good.

I would respond with the whole "but cricket is not a real sport" comment, but I have watched the entire twenty20 tournament and really enjoyed it. None of my mates watched it, my dad nearly got sick when he seen it on the tv and my g.f is too embarrassed to tell anyone that her b.f watches it

I think the twenty20 format is good to watch, nice and fast paced, but you can shove the 5 day tests up your �$$ play a game for 5 days and it can be a draw, they stop for tea, no play when there is rain...... stupid idea!!

How'd you like that rather acrobatic fielding by one of the Sri Lankan fielders last week?

Regarding the five-day tests: they're essentially Cricket's version of a baseball series contest. The reason for no play in rain is because of the danger involved with batting against a ball bowled on a wet pitch. If you're curious as to the different usage of the word tea, perhaps you'd care to crack open a dictionary.

A mate has a great big projector that he uses for some drama stuff he does. So we tried to watch the cricket and the F1 last night but tbh it was pretty rubbish. So instead we watched lots of old school WWF on youtube. Cage fight between Mankind and undertaker is ridiculous.
