Cricket World Cup: West Indies thru to Super Eight Round!
Yeah! We just beat Zimbabwe (them 202/5 and us 204/4).
And we’re advancing to Super Eight.
Now I’m in a quandary, we still have one match to play in this round against Ireland and Zimbabwe has to play Pakistan. I mean, seriously, Zimbabwe should beat Pakistan like everybody else (yes, Ireland, a minnow, beat Pakistan *snicker*) but if they beat Pakistan and we beat Ireland (we better beat Ireland *prays*) then they’ll decide which of Zimbabwe and Ireland will advance to Super Eight by net run rate and that’s too iffy.
*sigh*
I like the Zimbabwe team but I want Ireland to get to Super Eight.
That’s historic.
That’s…you know…good for all those people who had issues with the non-Test playing teams coming to World Cup.
But they can’t beat us…so oh well…I don’t control the future so I guess whoever gets in…gets in…
But still…West Indies and Ireland advancing sounds fine to me.
I got you a ticket for the 21st, so who do you want to come 2nd in this group, ’cause that’s who you’ll be seeing! Root for Ireland. I think I would like to see Ireland play live.

And if England make it to 2nd spot in their group, THAT’s the match I unkowingly got you tickets for and convinced you to fly over here – D2 vs C2!!! Woohoo aren’t I a great sister???

Chennette, I was there days ago!
Days ago I’ve been excited over that.
It’s just I don’t want Zimbabwe to feel left out of the Pakistan action! :(

Yes but I am a bit slow and didn’t realise I had tickets for that potential match. I never looked at a schedule.
