As sick as it gets

One could not have asked for a more sick finale of a sports major

  • Reducing the contest to 38 over a side. Come on, why do we have a reserve day?
  • The dumbest of formulae - Duckworth-Lewis method deciding the outcome of the final
  • Umpires offer light to the batsmen who accept it and the Aussies start celebrating only for the men in black to inform the Aussies that they can celebrate only when the three remaining overs are completed the next morning.
  • Upon protest from both the captains, the three remaining overs are played in pitch darkness
End of a really boring, mis-managed cricket Worldcup. Period.

Yes. Agree with the blog. A very lousy world cup
