Day 29 - Ch... Ch... Ch... SA!

They CHallenged.
They CHased.
They CHoked - for a change not their own jugular, but the collective jugulars of 20 million and change Sri Lankans!

Everything that could go wrong, went wrong for SL.
Except for the bad neck that Steyn got after that Dilshan-dismissal-celebratioon, everything went right for SA! Quinton de Knocked today. Bowlers planned well. That over by Morkel to Angelo somewhere around the 30-over mark kind of summed up the entire effort from both teams.

And to top it all, SL lost out 70% of their batters to spinners. A Duminy hat-trick? What has the world come down to ??

Good-bye Sanga, Mahela and Dilshan! You entertained us all. Thank you very much!

Finally, SA got that monkey off their back - losing every knock-out game in a World Cup until today! Still feel that they are not yet ready for the final fling!

G-Section:

Someone told me that if I had taken part in the G-Section myself, I would have been -3000 credits just based on my Sri Lankan bias yesterday. He has a point though!

And the default entry worked ;-)




So for tomorrow's game:


India vs Bangladesh @ Melbourne by 1100 SGT

And the default entry will be as follows.

India wins by 1-30 runs / 1-3 wickets / India takes max wickets / 4-7 sixers in the game

So, if you don't want to follow my guess and lose points, send that guess now!

Q-Section:

That was an easy one. 

Schrodinger's Cat


Watch it. Quite interesting.


Of course Schrodinger's Cat is a Linux distribution code under Fedora (the hat!) Operating System. That version went out of support in Jan 2015. The yellow implement is a Gieger Counter and HCN is the deadly poison that the cat would be consuming if even an atom decays in that chamber!


AngelAsh, ManiacG and Raghav got it right. Good show folks.


Today's question:


Who is 'Plum Light Dazzle', orientally speaking? Famous personality. [ 3 points]


Answers and guesses to the usual place.
