World Cup Fever

Is it catching on already? I dont know but for some reason im really not that excited… not yet anyway. Ever since ive got into watching Test cricket with real interest a few years ago, ODIs have just stopped turning me on. They seem like a sorry excuse for cricket.. and are used mainly as a source of quick income. Its like cricket’s respectable day job is Tests and then the quick buck making night job is ODIs.

Anybody else feel the same way? :bummer: And its gonna suck not having anymore test cricket till May !

There is still time. Wait till Pak smacks SA in the ODI's (yea rite!) and then you will be thrilled right back into the WC spirit. To get excited about World Cup, you have to root for a team to win, and want to want it really bad... so come on, join the party! Nag your Indian neighbor. Taunt the Jamaican who delivers your milk. Poke fun at the English guy who smirks at you every morning. Oh, and please don't take panga with any Australian. That, even I won't recommend. Everyone else is fair game.

Re: Worlc Cup Fever

I’m not really excited about it either :bummer:
From someone who used to be cricket-mad, I’m shying away from it. No idea why :bummer:

Re: World Cup Fever

I am sure if the same WC was being played in Aus or England, I would have been so excited. But West Indies??? cricket in WI may be good for the folks in the stadium but it sux on TV. I love cricket coverage and stadia of Eng and Aus.

Re: World Cup Fever

Re: World Cup Fever

...not excited about world cup at all, in fact not that excited about cricket *anymore. After years of watching '*night' time cricket, it would be nice to see matches in the day time other than that, nothing special.

Kaisa hey???
