No love for Cricket?

I'm still struggling about whether I love or hate Cricket. As all I really know is that I don't understand it.

But the Kiwi's beat South Africa by one run with one ball left!

Do they get the Aussies or India in the finals?

Any "sport" that has a tea break can hardly be considered a legitimate sport.

Its meant for gentlemen who appreciate proper English double rifles

Australia - New Zealand in finals. India lost to Australia.

I gave up on the game a while back - too much match fixing. Kind of like Don King took over the game.

I'm still heartbroken about that game. Woke up at 3am and was on the edge of my seat all morning. Hope the kiwis thrash the Aussies and SA win it in 2019. That would set right all past world cup wrongs.

Australia put it away with ease - let's hope 2019 it's anybody but Australia !!!

I played cricket as a kid....very boring to play and even more boring to watch - my opinion. A five day test match usually ends in a draw...go figure!

Its seriously not worth it. The US tax code might be easier to understand than all the rules of cricket.
