You mean to say Singapore finally found 11 guys who can understand the rules of cricket? ;-)
b.t.w can you tell us the other participating nations?
1. Vatican City - Pope said don't participate because its not a Christian thing to hug 11 guys on a field
2. Greenland - Could't practice because of the snow
3. Iceland - Same reason
4. Uganda - They are still building the boat which will bring people from Uganda to Singapore for the matches.
Ok I need to stop now... Pitega...

#Porkodi,
Hehe... naah, guess again? ;)

#Mayur,
Thanks. :)

#virdi,
Abbe chup! Tu jab bhi bar mein aata hai, hello-hi se pehle bakwaas hi karta hai! :P

The other teams were Bahrain, Norwary, Malaysia, Botswana and Guernsey. We beat all the teams and then beat Bahrain in the finals too. :D

#Stupidosaur,
Toh kissa yeh hai ki Singapore was in division 6 of the world cup league. They beat the crap out of the 5 countries in the same division and have moved to division 5. If they continue this performance every year, they will quality for the 2015 World Cup. :)

#Thousif Raza,
It is 6 years indeed. See reply to Stupidosaur.

hey cool!

Stupidosaur said...

Call me Stupid, but I still didn't understand :(.

6 years to the world cup you explained.

But 6 matches, 6 wins? Is that something already happened? Or is that what needs to happen?

If it has already happened, then they played 5 teams for 5 wins isn't it? Or it wasn't one win with each team?

If it is needed to happen to qualify for 2015 world cup, then are 6 matches and 6 wins needed in 6 years ( 1 per year ;) )

Or are 6 matched 6 wins needed per year for next 6 years?

Yes I know the spelling of cricket.

#Meira,
Thanks. :)

#Stupido,
Sorry, I didn't elaborate in the last comment. Of the 6 teams in division 6, the bottom 2 moved to division 7, the middle 2 remained in division 6 and the top 2 (Singapore and Bahrain) moved to division 5. In the recent tournament, Singapore played 5 countries and then the finals against Bahrain, hence 6 matches. We have to stay in the top 2 for the next 6 years so we keep moving up and eventually play the 2015 World Cup. :)
