Our countries could soon face a cropper if we're not careful

Quote:

Celebrations have taken place across Afghanistan after its cricketers qualified for the first time for the World Cup, to be held in 2015.
The team beat Kenya by seven wickets on Friday in their final qualifying match in Sharjah.
More than 1,000 overjoyed fans watched their convincing victory on a giant screen in a stadium in Kabul before taking to the streets in celebration.
There were similar outpourings of joy in most other major cities.

Was the loser beheaded?

In other news, I'm now a cricket expert.

One of our Indian engineers plays cricket, so it was interesting to get his perspective on things.

I told him of the ballad of my Barmy Army hat and my Aussie hat.

He thought it was funny.
