the farce in the dark

finally, the cricket world cup is over! last nights game was quite a farce. the tropical, unpredictable caribbean weather made sure of that.

it didn't help that none of the match officials had a clue of what was going on, or so it seemed. i really believe that in those extreme conditions they should've postponed till the next day. seriously, how on earth were sri lanka ever expected to have a chance in those conditions?

and then australia prematurely celebrating, the organisers bringing the stands out for the ceremony - only to be told to remove them by the umpires...

ridiculous. hopefully the next world cup will be better organised and not so looooooong.

at work we had a tournament to see who could guess the outcome of the matches the best. for a chickie, i didn't do too bad. my highest standing at one stage was 3rd place. in the the end though i only managed come in 5th...
