260 all out

....and a hat trick 

Is this at the Gabba? Thought I heard the Ausies on the news saying it's very different to any other cricket ground...?  :-/

[albitz]

I have no idea what you are all talking about.
Would I be correct in thinking its something to do with that "activity" where a lot of blokes dressed in white stand around in the middle of a field, and occasionally (about once every 15 minutes or so) one of them throws a ball to one of the others ? :-/

 

[feeutfo]

That's it, you got it

to clarify ...... 

[size=12]The Rules of Cricket
You have two sides, one out in the field and one in. Each man that's in the side that's in goes out, and when he's out he comes in and the next man goes in until he's out. When they are all out, the side that's out comes in and the side thats been in goes out and tries to get those coming in, out. Sometimes you get men still in and not out.

When a man goes out to go in, the men who are out try to get him out, and when he is out he goes in and the next man in goes out and goes in. There are two men called umpires who stay all out all the time and they decide when the men who are in are out. When both sides have been in and all the men have out, and both sides have been out twice after all the men have been in, including those who are not out, that is the end of the game![/size]

Thanks Andy, its clear as mud now.

....and a hat trick  .......

A hat-trick in cricket is what exactly? 3 wickets for no runs or 3 wickets in 3 balls? I see we lost 3 wickets at 197 runs  :-?


I should've Googled it first  ...... 3 wickets in 3 balls  How pathetic for a national team!

[albitz]

Nope, sorry, youve lost me again.

[Andy B]

Nope, sorry, youve lost me again.

I can easily lose myself when it comes to amost any sport.

[Jusme]

Hmmmm ! You 'are' behind the times Albs. Dressed in white Nah, just like everything else these days, gotta turn everything on its head. A polite and appreciative clap also used to be enough in a game of cricket, but like all other sports now, everyone has to run around with their hand in the air slapping everyone elses.. The sooner we become the 51st. State the better....  :-/
