Cricket World Cup: Sri Lanka offered light?

What is going on???

Sri Lanka was offered the light.
The batsmen took it.
Australia celebrated the win. The oval celebrated the win.
The umpires said the match isn’t done. There are three more overs and it can be played tomorrow.

Argh!
Is there no organization?
No rules???

I think they’re coming back out to play the three overs instead of coming out tomorrow.

It’s ludicrous.
Crazy.
There should be investigation or something!
It’s crazy.

I would understand if Sri Lanka conceded. I wouldn’t look down on them. Has anybody ever conceded a one-day? I know they’ve done it in test and first-class.
It’s not just a bad taste in the winners but also the spectators.

GAH!
