BeaStKid Posted September 25, 2007 Author Posted September 25, 2007 Celebrating India's status as Cricket World T20 Champions!!! Yaaay!!! Way to Go India!!! The BeaStKid
Site Administrator Graeme Posted September 25, 2007 Site Administrator Posted September 25, 2007 Congratulations to India I'm still not sure I like the 20-20 competition, but I'm willing to give it a go to see how it goes. One day cricket has certainly evolved into a complex tactical game from its early days as a slog-fest.
rknapp Posted September 25, 2007 Posted September 25, 2007 Isn't cricket that pansy-ass sport that rich people play? Or am I thinking of something else... it involves hitting balls with mallets through hoops stuck in the ground IIRC.

You're thinking of croquette Test cricket is the game that you can play for five days and still end up with a draw. One day cricket is a variation that lasts just a day and always has a result. 20-20 cricket is a relatively new variation that is even faster -- it's over in only a few hours.
glomph Posted September 26, 2007 Posted September 26, 2007 You're thinking of croquette No, croquettes are little round patties or balls made with meat and or vegetables and fried. I especially like salmon croquettes. The game is croquet, pronounced sort of like "cro-KAY" unlike the food, which is sort of like "cro-KETT."

I had a 50-50 chance of getting it right (I considered both spellings) but I was too lazy to look up a dictionary... and I've caught.
Adrian Michaels Posted September 26, 2007 Posted September 26, 2007 I'm celebrating two things. First of all, my update to An American Wizard at Hogwarts!! AND.... My 200th post!! WOOO!
Site Administrator Graeme Posted September 26, 2007 Site Administrator Posted September 26, 2007 Congratulations, Adrian! Both good things to celebrate (and for Bondwriter's benefit... the later is good because they've been quality posts and we want to see more)

Or am I thinking of something else... it involves hitting balls with mallets through hoops stuck in the ground IIRC. Like Graeme said, it's croquet, but what's wrong with it?? I really enjoy it. It's not the most exciting game in the world, but nothing beats a day at the cottage sipping G&Ts and playing croquet. Menzo
BeaStKid Posted September 26, 2007 Author Posted September 26, 2007 Congrats Adrian!! Race you to 1,000??? The BeaStKid
