Yesterday was couch potato day here. We did get out for a walk around the lakes, but the rest of the day was spent slumped in front of the Brazilian Grand Prix, the Rugby World cup Final (on 24 hour delay here) and some cricket.
The Twenty20 World Cup provided such wonderful entertainment that I was very sorry I was stuck in the UK when I could have been watching it with Kevin (although of course he was in Japan for much of the event). I was very pleased, therefore, to discover that the whole tournament is still available on streaming replay from Willow TV for just $10. That’s a full 26 3-hour matches, many of which are very close. Remarkable value.
Because all of the matches are listed it is possible to tell from who is in the later stages of the tournament what some of the results must have been, but there are no actual scores listed so the material is relatively spoiler-free. If any Americans fancy taking a look at some cricket, this is an excellent way to do so. You can watch a complete game in the time it takes to watch a baseball match, and the action is seriously high octane. If you’d like recommendations as to which games to watch, just ask.
