    Pakistan lost the Cricket 20-20 world cup to India! What's sad is that Pakistan vs India matches usually work out in favor of Pakistan, but we have never won a match against them during a World Cup.

    The First 20-20 world cup and Pakistan loses!

    AHHH!!!!!!

    Oh you just went too far there. Cricket comes first, then all the other pathetic excuses for sports are considered.

    Cricket is the slowest, most dire game since chess.

    I would rather watch paint dry

    I'm looking forward to a depleted English side battling it out against the Aussies in next Saturday's RWC quarter final :)

    If gwen's about, I might even make a banter thread

    If you're watching a test math it is. Very fun game to play though. Since I'm Muslim and I fast me and my friends have set up flood lights at our Mosque and we start playing at 12 all the way to dawn.

    Watch the new 20-20 matches, they go much faster.

    Why is this thread not called 'India have won the world cup'?

    But nonetheless, what a fantastic day for all Indians out there. My roots go back to India so naturally it was a win we hold pride in. Woooooohoooooooo!

    Really? Some other Australian guy told me it was Cricket. Hmm I guess it's just personal preference.

    OK..looks like it's me!!

    For women, it's netball

    Summertime for men...Cricket

    Winter: Depends on which State you live. For Victoria it's Aussie Rules Football (also Western and South Australia)
    New South Wales and Queensland: It's Rugby League

    All States have a representative Football Team (Soccer)

    France to trounce the POMS!!!!!!!!!
