Well, Canada did try to do what their trans-Atlantic cousins did yesterday. The blueprint was nicely printed. But there was nobody to read the same.
Oranje went the much-travelled route by the Associates. Allow the full member to score over seven an over and then fold meekly. They said that the meek shall rule the world. But I don't know which world?!
Today was a day of three leg spinners. Tahir, Balaji Rao and Boom^2.
Between them they took ten wickets and life seems to be full of roses for the leggies. Just goes on to prove that all you need is good control (as if it is easy to achieve!) and big heart to go and perform.
Funny thing is that two of the trio are from Pakistan and the other one is from Chennai, India :-))
Interesting.
Heard that all of Pakistan is wishing NOT to play the QF in India. Sensible and by current form, they seem to be on target to achieve that, i.e., first in their group!!
By the way, our dear umpires had a field day - all the first four referrals in the Canada innings had to be pulled back... eeeesh!

That was really an easy question. The gentleman in question was St Patrick, the patron saint of, who else, Ireland!!!
Raghav, Siva* and AdarshB got the right answer. Good show, folks.
Now for the next easy one.
Whose voice is this?
