Not that far north C-man still get daylight especially in summer it is only dark for about 4 hours so maybe cricket could come up here more light more play. :p :D :p :D :p :D

have they got a tea towel with the off side rule vorlon it would have to the size of a beach towel LOL

Must say having watched the closing part the other day shame Flintoff didnt get the last wicket.

Yes there is in the rules a BOWL-to-single-stump rule to tie-break games but think it only used in one day cup games where there has to be a winner

if one side have batted and the other side dont have enough time to finish because of rain or bad light etc ,in the one day or 20/20 matches then the duncan lewis result comes into play... the first batting side have runs or overs deducted ,,,,causes all sorts of grief.
