Cricket Result

India win despite Tremlett blows

Chris Tremlett took three wickets to knock some of the gloss off India's inevitable triumph over England on the final day of the Trent Bridge Test.
Starting the final day on 10-0 needing just 73, India were comfortable before losing Wasim Jaffer with the score on 48 and Dinesh Karthik on 55.
Tremlett bowled a snorter at Sachin Tendulkar to have him caught at short leg nine runs from the winning post.
But four byes finally took the tourists to victory after 94 minutes of play.

I thought it was crystal clear - the former colony beat up the former colonizers despite one of them being taken out by a "snorter." Even I don't know what that is.

Just wait, in 400 years the Iraqis will be beating us in baseball.

Does the "94 minutes of play" include tea-time? Also, how come these articles never mention who cleans up the horse poop? I assume any sport played on horseback must require a lot of poop-cleanup breaks.

Tea Time's like 4:30 in the afternoon or something - 94 minutes wasn't enuff 2 get 2 lunch.

Da Horse poop guy ain't important. There are probably some famous groundkeepers (Willie comes to mind), but nobody gives a $#!+ about the horse poop cleaner. BTW, he's called the equine manure manager (EMM), thank you very much.
