For those of you not familiar with cricket, the key thing here is the 5 wickets (meaning outs) in 18 balls. In baseball, that feat is equivalent to a pitcher striking out 5 batsman with 18 pitches. Think about it.
Currently, Afghanistan is playing Canada. The Afghans batted first and finished up with a much more respectable 265 runs. Canada is now chasing. And me? I'm torn. I want Afghanistan to win but not necessarily at the cost of Canada being eliminated from the World Cup. Actually, now that I think about it, I hate cricket. I really don't give a rat's ass about the World Cup. But wouldn't it be great if the Afghans made it? Oh, and just to note: Canada lost to Ireland in the round robin.
GO AFGHANISTAN!!!!
