Yay I finally beat India despite leaving it to the last over!

I then lose to Pakistan having Clarke, Symonds, Watson, Lee and Gillespie dismissed with the little yellow duck walking across the screen.
 
That game is aweeeesome.

It reminds me of a game I played as a kid called "MacCricket" if I am ever able to play that game again I will die a happy man.

Cheers for the link yertle! :bow:
 
OMFGFGFGF!!!

yertle-you-rule! That is completely unbelivable. I have searched for this on-and-off since I first got the internet back in the late 90's. Dude... I have no idea how to thank you. Do you play it? :hyper:

I have no mac... but surely I can find an old one for nix! :hyper:

:hug: :love: :heart:

I don't. I've never owned a mac. I just googled it. The link may not work etc. etc. etc.

I've been googling that since the dawn of time...and somehow you found it first go! Magical fingers!

It works it appears... the reviews sound legit as well...

Somehow old school macs are harder to find than I first thought though... :hmm:

Thank you so much again... you don't know how unbelivably cool this is.
 
Yay I managed to get to the final!

Playing as NZ, of all teams.

Highlights include no wickets taken in the group game against West Indies, a dramatic final over against Sri Lanka in the semis (with only one man dismissed) and only one dismissal in the final v. Australia, despite the fact I got my arse more or less soundly kicked.

I play this too much...

Can't wait for the real deal at the Oval though!
 
That game is really hard. Bloody Shane Warne!! How the feck are you supposed to hit his balls? (Yeah, I am aware of what I just said...)

Thanx for finding it though Yertle! :bow:

Nice bowling Warnie! :hyper:

"Bowling, Shane!...Ooh, aah, Glenn McGrath, I say Ooh Aah Glenn McGrath"

Speaking of which, which is entirely unrelated, did I ever mention our trivia team's name is The Glenn McGraths? :lol: We won a round last night :up:
 
Wouldn't it be damn funny if the Aussies scored a combined 675 at the middle of the second innings while England are all out for 400 and then the heavens open and the match is drawn?

it would be lovely, as england would win the ashes:wink: also, don't forget england would have won the 3rd test if it weren't for rain
 
OK I actually found a way to watch this on TV. It's a super-hilarious-crap way, and I don't plan on doing it regularly (radio is fine), but it was fun to see a match for once rather than just hearing the stuff.

Win or lose I think Flintoff will be man of the series.
 
May the best cloud that blocks out the sun, Win.

Its, Not , Too Dark!! (english for not too dark :wink:)

Turn the light up england.

Light goes down

The umpies think its time
to get off, the park
A think its a little brighter, than before
Billys eyes need to brightened
Prehaps he put his soul on eng-a-land

Asking for another light check
Girl in aussie colours has the umpire by the neck
PLAY SOME FUCKING CRICKET
PLAY SOME FUCKING CRICKET

Hello Hello (what the?)
Where The Hell did the light go (its not that dark!)
Its everything the pommies wanna know
cause they want the ashes
For a Channge

Hours of waiting......

All of this
All of this could be fixed
All of this all of this could be fixed
JUST BUY SOME FREAKING LIGHTS

Hello Hello (what the?)
Where the hell did all the light go? (its not that dark!)
Lights go down

One month ago I had some vague understanding of cricket.

Great stuff, I'm not getting any sleep tonight because I want to see the match out. Wonderful cricket from both sides.
