Cricket World Cup Final (For those that don't care)

[omitchell]

Well after a thrilling semi final the other night with Elliot smacking a 6 off the second to last ball to put NZ into the final of the CWC (Our first ever) now the other semi final between India and Australia has just finished.

Australia just destroyed India by 95 runs (all out) with 3.1 overs still to go...

So in a strange cliche, it's Australia vs New Zealand for the Cricket World Cup at the MCG (Melbourne Cricket Ground) on Sunday in the usual Trans-Tasman clash.

All I can say is, let's hope they don't underarm us for the third time!!!

Third time?

Chappell and Crowe

Anyways the finals starting now on Prime, NZ Batting first so they won't be able to do it again

I just gotta say this .... Fer fer ferrr ferrr cricket

I was just saying to Doug before it started, I think NZ will win - they deserve it for their more consistent performance. Go Milhouse!!, get them wickets

[Ian Warren]

Go Milhouse!!, get them wickets

Crickey ! had I known Milhouse was playing I may have watched it .. so who's side is Bart and Lisa on ..

WEll they are both yellow so I'm guessing not ours, and right now, neither is luck...

Actually the gentleman concerned wears a black cap, glasses, and has the initials D.V....he is a damn good cricketer, but I don't think he plays the bagpipes

The Aussie left armers were just carving us up. We'll see how we do against their batsmen now...

[omitchell]

Final scores...

New Zealand 183 (All out 45 overs)
Australia 186/3 (33.1 overs)

As much as I would have liked to have seen the BC's win they were really up against it.
The Aussie bowlers were brilliant, their batters were measured and Michael Clarke is a wily old fox and set the game up right from the start. They will miss him in the ODIs.

Ah well....I would get the bagpipes out and play a lament, but they were destroyed in the last flood by my neighbour's pet octopus

Yeah their left armers were just carving us up and taking McCullum for a duck off the 4th ball was a lethal blow
