Good win for the West Indies.

Watch out Scotland on Wednesday your up against the big guns of Australia. Knowing Australia when they go in to batting half the team will be in the bar drinking.

New Zealand Win the World Cup!:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

I do think that it will be a more even match this time, with many teams could come and take it. I hope Australia wins, but I would also like to see some good matches.

Good Luck to all.

Sure. It's a simple game that anyone can understand.

One team is in and one team is out. The team that is in must send two players out. The team that is not in will go out with them. The team that is in are not allowed to send someone in until someone else is out. When it’s your turn to be in you go out. Each team member goes in when the man before him is out. You know when you’re out because the umpire will stick his finger up at you. When you are in, you try to stay in, and the team that is out try to get you out so they can be in. When the whole team is out, the other team is allowed in. Both teams do this twice, unless one side decides to declare, in which case the team that is out is allowed back in again. This rule does not apply in the World Cup where you have to do it only once.
If it rains nobody is in, and usually the game is a draw.

Why are some of are players out on the razzle dazzle after a poor showing? Just saw the news and those players are a sham to the team.

Yes, i'd say that covers it! The only other thing to mention is that the team that are out, sometimes want to know how it is to be in. Shouting Howzzzzzthat???? at the umpire, who i'm sure doesn't know as he's neither out nor in.

Big news today! Ireland defeated Pakistan and Bangladesh beat India. The Pakistan defeat means they can't make the cut for the next round and India's loss puts thm in danger if they lose their next match.

Go the Paddy's!

Australia's odds must get a bit shorter with one of their main rivals from recent years out of the tournament.
