twenty20, all that cricket and a bag of chips!

So the rugby world cup doesn’t provide enough action for you! No need to worry, just switch channels and watch the first twenty20 world cup! This dynamic form of cricket seems to be the direction that the future of cricket is heading towards. In a nutshell, pro 20 cricket is a 20 over cricket match that provides a whole lot of 4’s and 6’s. This form of cricket doesn’t take as much of your precious time as traditional cricket and it provides more than enough action!!
South Africa is hosting this world cup and doing a good job of it. There is a lot of action at every game and something for everybody, dancers, a DJ and an atmosphere of excitement and fun. The games are all being held in Cape Town, Durban and Johannesburg. They seemed to bypass P.E. for some unknown reason. I would have loved to go to a game and experience this twenty20 world cup; it is a moment in cricketing history and we get skipped, anyway, I’ll still support the Proteas!
As for our South African team…we seem to be doing relatively well, but our performance needs a bit of a boost. I really hope that we make it to the final that is being held at the Wanderers stadium in Johannesburg on Monday the 24th of September. The final promises to be action packed and the fact that it is being held on a public holiday(Heritage day) means that the stadium will be packed with keen supporters and winning the cup will mean even more to all South Africans.
