Line Dancing

Science Fair

Sean had his science fair tonight, his sun dial project took honorable mention for the Kindergarten set! Well done Sean! So, its late now I will make this short. My earlier mistake did indeed leave the door open for my dear brother, but I cry no more. Sean's sun dial might need to point North but I am all about the SOUTHEE!!!!! 7 wickets! 200 points! I had him, James did not, I'm back on top baby! Or at least back on top of James, I still need to catch my sister.

Seems England can not get their acts together this tournament. Hope no one had a Brit as captain, if so I see a trade in your future. England batted first and went all out after 33 overs with only 123 runs! What?!? I mean WHAT?!? Seriously, did you all see that coming? You might have thought them underdogs for the game but really, that is a bit embarrassing. It only took New Zealand 12 overs and 2 wickets to crack that code. Sorry England you be at the bottom of pool A.

Tomorrow their are two games being played, Pakistan and the West Indies - both teams could really use a win, and Australia and Bangladesh - my money is on this match for the action.

Don't forget to make trades!

And Again with the mistakes.....

I have left the door open for my brother, this pains me no end..... I worked at the preschool this morning, didn't get home until after the game started........no trades made.... wah wahhhhhh........ I guess I will be joining the pending trade club in the future.

So, Bangladesh beat Afghanistan by 105 runs. They batted first and put up 267 runs. Both Al Hasan and Rahim earned half centuries. They lasted all 50 overs but used all 10 outs to get there so Afghanistan did rack up some wicket points. Then Afghanistan took their turn at the bat and well.....it was raining wickets for awhile. Three outs in 3 overs. But the middle of the order were able to hang in there and get a few runs on the board. In the end though it just was not enough. 105 runs short all out at 42. overs.

Currently the UAE is battling Zimbabwe. I have no players playing, booo! But UAE put up 285 in their inning with a half century for Anwar and they only dropped 7 wickets. SO well done UAE! Now Zimbabwe is at the bat and as of 5 seconds ago Zimbabwe require another 214 runs with 9 wickets and 35.0 overs remaining.

Tomorrow it will be two powerhouses, New Zealand and England!

Ciao!

We Love a Worm!

Thank you Anna for the lovely worm!

Sorry that I have been a bit remiss in my blog writing, the up side is that my house is significantly cleaner than it was 3 days ago. I can't do EVERYTHING people!

Anyway, Ireland did indeed beat West Indies! First upset of the tourney. And then Scotland was obliterated by New Zealand, seriously, it was pretty sad, I felt bad for the Scots. I was thinking maybe its better that they didn't vote for independence - not sure they can hang on their own.

Currently Bangladesh is battling Afghanistan. They are only 11 overs in so its to early to tell what will happen but Bangladesh is the favorite. However, Bangladesh hasn't been playing well and Afghanistan has, so...........might be the second upset of the tournament!

Tomorrow it will be UAE Vs. Zimbabwe. Both are underdogs so it could be an interesting game. UAE is the last new team, so after tomorrow it will all be teams we have seen before.

Make your trades! Have Fun!

Wheeeeee!

A tale of two groups

I couldn't take Katy Soucy off the list.  I know she is playing with us in spirit - just having technical issues. :-)
