That's just not cricket!

I'll be the first to admit that i just don't understand the sport. Cricket to me is as alien as it gets, I have no idea what the players do, nor the way the game is scored or what the rules are.

And it would appear that I'm not alone, unfortunately for those playing in the World Cricket Championships in Barbados even the officials seem to have a handle getting a grip on the game.

As this story from the International Herald Tribune shows, chaos and crisis are the words of the day as the championship match deteriorated into high farce today.

A day which provided a collection of misadventures that will give us cause to ever question and NHL or CFL referee ever again.
