5

You've got to be kidding me!! FIVE??!! Ridiculous.

I believe so, but I may be wrong.

Can't be bothered to see if the rules and playing conditions are on the Cricinfo site.

Over here we have had a few T20s reduced to F5s

Don't you try too hard to contain your excitement there Ash!

I guess if its 5/5 then Dhoni will open?

by doremi Thu 13 Sep 2007, 18:32

Still think 5-5 is ridiculous. Atleast 10 overs should be bowled each innnings.

by doremi Thu 13 Sep 2007, 18:33

Will be closer to Fifteen15 I think.

by LeFromage Thu 13 Sep 2007, 18:33

Quite.

How can a five over game possibly be described as cricket?

C'mon, you people know you want to watch the 'bowl out' live...

I want to see Sree Sreesanth (is he even playing?) copy Tim Murtagh and bust a few moves after knocking the stumps out of the ground.

by JKLever Thu 13 Sep 2007, 18:48

Except they aren't doing that at this tournament are they?

So, i'll stop talking complete gubbins immediately. geek

in fact you only have a bowl out in the event of a tie - acording to cricinfo. so if theres no 'normal' play before 9pm, its a point each

Aye, shame.

Would've been fun to see just how many pro-cricketers cant hit a set of stumps

by LeFromage Thu 13 Sep 2007, 18:51

Anyone have an Indian or Scottish players in their FC teams?

Thought not... wave

by doremi Thu 13 Sep 2007, 19:12

I have quite a few. Stoopid rain.

by Makaveli Thu 13 Sep 2007, 19:13

This is very dissapointing, i got three Indian players in my fantasy team.

So if we beat India tomorrow it will go down to NRR between India and Scotland.

by Makaveli Thu 13 Sep 2007, 19:15

And i was hoping those three Indian players would help me gain some ground with bliksem. Mad

by Ash Thu 13 Sep 2007, 19:19

i had 5 in anticipation of some minnow bashing Mad

given up on the cricketweb team, cricinfo is 'where its at'

And you will if the team listed today is played again. Brainless, just brainless.

Doesn't have official FB status. Meaningless.

by Makaveli Thu 13 Sep 2007, 19:24

It's going to take the groundstaff 30 mins to mop up so if the rain does not stop in 7 minutes the games off.

by JKLever Thu 13 Sep 2007, 19:24

1 pt each then

by furriner Thu 13 Sep 2007, 19:30

Fark this for a game of rounders.

by LeFromage Thu 13 Sep 2007, 19:35

So that's the end of that. shrug
