Wont be many Cricket fans here <:( but I'll mention about it all the same :cool:
Starts Saturday in India, Sri Lanka and Bangladesh. England of course are in it :)

The main website for the tournament is here with information here as well.

Discuss your favorite top players and who you think will win this year. For me India will be the force to reckon with, especially being in home territory. I also fancy South Africa to finish strongly. Honestly though, quite a few good teams this year.
 
I wanna play with crickets! Are they cute? Do they make a lot of noise? How do they compare to grasshoppers?
 
Kick a grasshoppers ass any day. They just sound meaner and they know what the score. On a serious note the world cup starts Saturday :)

Grasshoppers would win. They would just hop away!

Sometimes the grasshoppers scare me, they look like green penis's with legs.
