World Eleven
The idea of the winner of the World Cup (and thus by inference the best team in the cricket-playing world) playing a dream team of the world’s best players is downright Barnum and Bailey: entertainment at its best ;) World XI’s got off to a rocky batting start but I really hope they beat Australia- fighting them is always gladiatorial fun to watch :D *runs back to telly*
they lost today! :D ..
this is nothing new. Back when Pakistan won the 1992 world cup they were pit against a World XI consisting of formidable players of that time. Unfortunately Pakistan lost that match.
do i really write in such abstruse circles that nobody gets what i’m trying to say? i *know* it isn’t a novel concept..*sigh*
and yeah they lost. sadness. afridi up to his on-off nakhrey again too..heh
