... It has been one month since the tournament began and one month since we started this journey. Thanks to one and all for making this one a memorable one...
There was a sense of inevitability that could be discerned very easily at the Barbados ground yesterday. The wicket had so much that all the bowlers had to do was to 'put the ball in the right places'. (God! I hate these cliches...) And the Irish obliged very nicely to finish the game before lunch. Still I maintain that the Irish are a fighting lot; it took 27 balls for the powerful Ozzies to get their first boundary! Some great fielding efforts all around. (It is a different matter that Gilly pounded the next three balls to the boundary!)
Now for the Can-You-Do-It-Without-Googling Trivia...
(Just to show that there is life outside cricket, however small! No points; Pure quizzing!)
Answer to yesterday's question: All are comic/literary characters; All except Belle are cats; Belle is Snoopy's sister; Arlene used to be Garfield's girlfriend before Penelope came along; Dinah is the pet of Alice of Alice in Wonderland; Hot Dog from Dennis the Menace.
Aditya K, Anand Re, Guru, Rohit got it right. Guru managed to get the pedigree behind the canine and felines; others, I guess, resorted to guesses!
