BeaStKid Posted September 25, 2007 Author Share Posted September 25, 2007 Celebrating India's status as Cricket World T20 Champions!!! Yaaay!!! Way to Go India!!! The BeaStKid Link to comment
Site Administrator Graeme Posted September 25, 2007 Site Administrator Share 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. Link to comment
rknapp Posted September 25, 2007 Share 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. Link to comment

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. Link to comment
glomph Posted September 26, 2007 Share 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." Link to comment

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. Link to comment

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 Link to comment
