| Cricket: Latest: India 600 beat Pakistan 224 & 245 by an innings and 131 runs. India completed a historic series victory by beating Pakistan by an innings and 131 runs in Rawalpindi. ie. gave them a thorough beating They picked up the last eight wickets for 196 to win with more than four sessions to spare. Leg-spinner Anil Kumble was the most successful bowler with 4-47 and he was well supported by seamer Laksmipathy Balaji, who took 3-108. The main resistance came from Asim Kamal, who battled his way to 60 not out despite an elbow injury. Sport once again acts as a unifying influence upon nations. I can just see the Marines and the Jihadis playing |

| #10 High Scores? Gotta be like the "health suppliments" like Barry Bonds and Mark McGwire were taking. |

| #9 Don't be snarky about cricket- the love of the game has kept the desire for communication open between the people of Pakistan & India. And what about Lara's 400... |

| #4 Cricket actually seems like a real American kind of sport. I mean, what's more American than high scores, 131 runs for God's sake! That's why we hate soccer, an hour and a half for a score of 1-0. If only cricket had rules. |

| #2 What's a pitch? Who in the Marines would play soccer? Seems as if the jihadis had an opportunity to get 11 Marines with no weapons, no effort would be wasted to kill them. They're infidels, after all! Hardly human beings. Contrast this with the attitudes of the Europeans who slaughtered each other during the Great War, doing so largely at the behest of their rulers. Jihadis really believe that the enemy needs to die, as opposed to Franz and Bill, who just want to get the thing overwith so they can go back to their girlfriends and drinking beer. |
