Welcome to the Official Cricket Thread
-----------------------------------------------------------
Ok, as you may know its Summer now! and that means its the official Cricket Season is here. So from the approval of Luke, I decided to make a [Official Cricket Thread] where you can talk about CRICKET!, from Domestic Cricket to International Cricket. Whatever it may be, as long as its Cricket related. But most importantly make sure you obey the rules and regulations which are found here: www.myps3.com.au/ And last but not least ENJOY!

All the [Official] information regarding cricket in Australia from International 20/20 matches to Domestic test matches (whatever it may be) can be found right here: www.cricket.com.au/

added a few pics enjoy!:

India looked like they didn't know how to finish it off & at 5-102 I thought they had blown it. Congrats to India. Bring on a great series for a change (and it will be the last one in this format). Just hope Oz win it!
