[edit] Final
The showpiece of one day cricket was afforded the respect it deserved by the ICC. Was a reduced overs game despite them having a reserve day, at one point Sri Lanka did not know what target they were chasing despite every county game ever being able to do the duckworth lewis calculations really quickly. Lastly, but not least, there was the utter shambles of the sri lankan batsmen accepting the offer of bad light with 3 overs to play. australia rightly thought they'd won (the innings being more than 20 overs old), the stadium announcers thought they'd won, the scoreboard told everyone they'd won, but Rudi Koertzen inexplicably told the teams they'd either have to finish the final 3 overs tomorrow, or play them out in the PITCH BLACK. cue michael clarke and andrew symonds bowling in the most not-giving-a-shit way possible to get the overs done as quickly as possible and the aussies celebrating twice
[edit] Aftermath
- Diz is headhunted by the ICC and given the task of coming up with a more convoluted format
