Congratulations Anna

Just like your namesake, you may have been knocked out early but you made a miraculous recovery!! In stead of the bat I did find this lovely Cricket Seagull we could have inscribed:
Of course if you would rather have the bat, James said he'll get the plaque updated and pass it on.

The Brown Sugar Squares held onto second while the 4Bs, much like the Kiwis, did in fact get Doosrahed! If you want to check out the final standings, log into cricket web and look on the right. Click on "World Cup 2015" under "Recently Archived Teams", then scroll ALL the way to the very bottom and you will see a link to "Robinson Cricketers Rout"

New Zealand did not show themselves like they had for the rest of the tournament, a bit disapointing. McCullum went out for a duck on the fifth ball and that kinda set the stage. Elliot hung in for 83 but no one else could get anything of note going. 3 wicket hauls to both Johnson and Faulkner running New Zealand all out after 45 overs with only 183 runs to show for it. When Finch went out for a duck in the second over I am sure that New Zealnd thought maybe they could pull it out but no. Australia chased them down in 33.1 overs using up only 3 wickets. Well Done Australia

Thank you all for playing with me, its always a lot of fun. Next March the World Twenty20 tournament will be in India, who's in??
