A CORRUPT CRICKET WORLD CUP

BRITAIN WINS CRICKET WORLD CUP

Or did they?

Not on my reckoning they didn’t; it all depends on how the results are counted to determine the ‘WIN’.

 

You can discount the runs scored; both New Zealand and Britain scored equally, 241 runs.

Whereby, the corrupt ‘counting’ method determined, that it was a ‘tied match’; requiring a, “SUPER-OVER”. Which was not necessary at all.

 

On the estimation of ‘best performance’ which in a ‘tied’ circumstance should prevail; New Zealand won the match because their overall performance was better.

 

EVIDENCE – Getting the batsmen “OUT”.

Britain only got “five’ New Zealand  Batsmen, “OUT”.

New Zealand got “eight” “OUT”.

And, on that basis, NEW ZEALAND won the Cup. Or, corruptly; doesn’t this “getting the batsmen out” performance count?

 

The very criteria of the game of cricket is based upon the, “Best runs Scored”; and, “Getting the Batsmen “OUT”.

The sheer ignoring of this in determining the winner of the “Cricket World Cup”; besmirches the very name and game, of “CRICKET”

There was one other corrupt incident during the, “SUPER-OVER” that took place, to New Zealand’s corrupt disadvantage.

One British batsman hit the ball high in the air where it was ‘caught’ fairly and squarely, by the New Zealand fielder. He ‘caught the ball’, without any doubt whatsoever; whilst, he was standing upright fully upon his feet. But, then, he fell backwards; his back crashing into the ‘boundary’ fence. However,, before his body even touched the ground and as he was falling, he threw that ball to another New Zealand fielder. Who caught it.

That ‘ball’, in that circumstance, never ever touched the ground at all; nor did it cross the ‘boundary’ of the pitch. Yet, wholly corruptly; it was determined and decided that the British ‘batsman” was not, “OUT”. Who, then went on to score more runs?

All Britain, and all British News Media, now with sheer ‘hype’ and false patriotism proclaim the “Victory” – But, for me, I see nothing to celebrate at all. In my eyes and for what I had witnessed, NEW ZEALAND WON THAT GAME.
