Yes.   And if anyone would have suggested my 7000th post would have been about Cricket when I joined, I would have thought they were crazy.

Looking at the score card here: http://www.crichq.com/matches/114608#inning-2

 

The team played extremely well. Auburn got busted against quality bowling (no seriously, the bowling was excellent) and they got the entire side out for only 68 runs in 18 overs (they could have batted for 20). In this format, 20/20s, you're considered good if your bowling economy rate is in the 4-5 range, everyone hit that.but one, but he got players out, so it's okay.  

 

Batting was decent. Wish they could have won without losing a man,  but good batting contributions from the top order. 

 

I know some of these words...

 

 

I know all of them....

But not as good as Smazza not scooping Wittek out of his backyard.

I actually watched the replay of the match.  Having never actually seen a game of cricket, I actually got into it as I started understanding the game, but some of the details and terminology are still a mystery.

 

Given the number of times that we've been to the finals and now have won a championship, does this make us a cricket school?

Killer! The ^ pic is exactly the picture I had in my head, having come from the Computer Science department where probably 75% of these guys are studying... :)

 

Calm down, diversity police, several were my friends...

 

Congrats Bulls!

I wish there were more people watching, they'd probably get drawn to it too. 

 

I proclaim myself the board's resident cricket expert (no seriously, I've watched the game, I know most of the terminology), so feel free to ask me as many questions as you like.

Okay...why name a sport after a bug if it has nothing to do with said bug's antics or actions? (sorry, couldn't help it...)

 

I actually like watching it, I just don't have much room in my life to follow another sport. Used to love hearing the guys talk about it so passionately though. Make no mistake, they take it very seriously!

Because its a very quiet sport.

And I love that they take it seriously. If you take something seriously you will rarely fail.

I spent a little over a week in India last year and Cricket is everywhere there.  I never did pick up the rules and everything but I'm glad USF is good at it :)
