I know I would get bored if Pakistan was invinsible.
 
GAME OVER! AUSTRALIA HAVE WON THE WORLD CUP!
SL HAVE TAKEN THE LIGHT AND AUSTRALIA HAVE WON A HATTRICK OF WCs!
You little ripper!
 
Amazing stuff: the light has been offered to the batsmen who have taken it! OZ have won the WC.
 
The OZ's are going home with the world cup for the third time in a row! I really think this team could rival WI's team in the 70s
 
Actually, OZ have NOT won the WC yet - because the batsmen can still come back out.
 
umpiers saying game is not over as the light might get better or they can comeback tomorrow. someone remember the Ashes 2005. But scoreboard says congrats Australia.
congrats Australia. played the tournament like champions
thank you McGrath. you had a wonderful career and a very good WC

This is farcical stuff from the organisers - what's going on? Dar and Bucknor are telling everyone that the match isn't over as the batsmen can still come back out, while the stages are being brought on for the presentation!
 
I still dont get why they took the light! That is a really pathetic way to give up
 
Dar and Bucknor are saying that SL has to come out for 3 overs tomorrow and bat out the match. Mahela doesn't seem to want to but the umpires are insistent.
 
Now they've made Vaas and Malinga go back out.

Can't they just declare or something?
 
it is too dark but only 3 overs left. just finish the game instead of trying to chase 60 some runs in 20 balls tomorrow. Players take your lighters out
 
Wow, great way to keep your rep Aleem. You get one big momennt, you F*** it all up!
 
wait a minute, i dont get this.
if the match had finished with 3 overs left, they couldnt have come back tommorrow because they had already played 20overs.
 
Jayawardene was told to choose between playing out the 3 overs tonight or tomorrow, and he chose tonight.
 
Stumping. Just give him out.
he is out.
Malinga out
7/210

sorry sir he forgot to ask. the game has to end either tonight or tomorrow. and you can't really have 3 overs bowled and ceremonies tomorrow
 
Out stumped possibly but it was too dark for Dar to see, so decision goes to the 3rd umpire.
 
Reminds me of the 1975 final, which also ended in farce, with half the crowd on the pitch.
 
i remember when pak played ireland and everyone was saying they couldnt come back tommorrow
 
Now the muppets are trying to decide if this is out. Out!
 
They should throw their wicket away. No point in keeping on playing.
 
I am surprised Aleem and Bucknor don't just wanna go home and just rest!
 
LOL they just showed how dark it is at the Kensington Oval without the cameras enhancing the light - it's bloody DARK.
 
aleem dar let himself down... eevry1 has has right to make fun of aleem.. so fking stupid
 
Finally comes to a close! OZ "officially" win by 53 runs.
 
Nice exchange between McGrath and Vaas - two great exponents of line and length.
 
Honestly they deserve it. I am just thinking that. Even though it sux for the game, they are just a terriffic team. Very, very proffessional.
 
cuz aleem was the one who was telling every1 what to do... bucknor looked like his assistant lol ....I think bucknor was abit embarassed
 
I think umpires in future realise that sometimes rules & regulation needs to be altered for the good of game
 
Sux to be an Aussie at the ground right now. Can't celebrate enough.
