MLC: Schedules, Lines ups, Games and Stats

[Dilscoop]

^ yup. This is getting interesting. Now TT will have the home field. Can they make use of it this time? They hit their stride and showed their true colors in the last two games. But their middle order and defense is still an issue.

Can't believe LA couldn't close this out at home!

Holy crap, didn't expect this. Yeah, I was going to play the same team in this game as well.

Anyways, home advantage doesn't mean anything in Toronto. I deliberately neutralized the effect of the pitch on my home games so I could compete with teams based on the raw capabilities of my (and their) players. To put it bluntly, if Tendulkar and Gibbs fire again but the duo don't, I'm Canadian French toast.

In any case, there will be changes in the line up for game 6.

No line up from LA. I'm off. So no chance of game tonight. I don't if I can tomorrow either. Tuesday is my busy day.

[Dilscoop]

And the series is TIED!! What.A.Comeback from Toronto!! Ahh!! From 3-0, Kings have slipped, slipped and slipped farther! They had the chance to close the game at home, and now they will be playing the shoot-out game in front of screaming Canadians!!

Toronto Tyrants' middle order finally came alive! LA Kings would've thought they'd won the World Series, after getting rid of the duo under 2 overs for 2 runs! But Tyrants' middle order played their best game of the season to deny that!

[AsifTheManRahman]

Thilan played the game of his life. Identical figures for Paul in consecutive matches.

The fix is in by the broadcaster in collusion with the two teams. Trying to maximize both turnstile and media ad revenues. Tsk. Task.

lol I knew some one would question integrity and all, therefore I was PRAYING that LA Kings would just win the damn thing already! But wasn't to be!! It would've been better for me if the series was over before game 5. I just got way too busy. And BC's being very distracting, and MLC keeps bringing me back here.

[Dilscoop]

LA lost the game when David Hussey went for 21 runs

[Maysun]

@#?!%&# come on!

Brilliant comeback ATMR. People who put their money on you winning the WS when you were 3-0 down are going to be rich if you win it.

[Maysun]

Dilscoop, when is the final clash?

[Maysun]

LA lineup:

Sachin Tendulkar (c)
HH Gibbs
Kumar Sangakkara (wk)
Paul Stirling
Ryan ten Doeschate
Abdul Razzaq
David Hussey
Samit Patel
Irfan Pathan
Chaminda Vaas
Sohail Tanvir

[Dilscoop]

Waiting on Canada. The nation awaits...

[AsifTheManRahman]

Which nation?

Same team as last game. Let's go let's go - Toronto is holding its breath in anticipation. Everyone is wearing a Tyrants jersey today.

Quotes from King City

When I grow up I want to bowl like Hamid Hassan
- Clara Nguyen, 6 y/o

How many goals do you reckon Hamid Hassan will score today?
- Binh Nguyen, 80 y/o, Clara's grandfather, likes cricket

Did you notice Sachin looks like Justin Beiber from that angle?
- Sana Taha, 14 y/o, goes astray as she crushes on the opponent

Big par-tay at my condo on Bay St. after the game to celebrate the win - free booze for all
- Chris Rotenberg, hopefully of legal age

[Dilscoop]

No one's talking about Kohli or the Duo?

I hope Bond does something, he's been sooo quite. This could very well be his last season.

Also hoping AB does something special. Wait, he isn't even playing! Ah!

[AsifTheManRahman]

What the celebs are saying

This is it yo, this is what I was sayin' when I sang "Wavin' Flag"
- K'Naan finally manages to get the message through, thanks to the MLC

I was going to stick to hockey, but you never know...playing for the Tyrants is quickly turning out to be an early adulthood dream
- Justin Beiber isn't satisfied with just a hockey contract

I think it's going to be David Warner
- Sidney Crosby, when asked who he thinks will win it for the Tyrants

Come on come on let's go, let's go, you go, I'm waiting...........I'm waiting
- Russell Peters whips out the Indian accent as he gets fidgety before the game

[AsifTheManRahman]

Can I get Justin Beiber as my local player next year?

[Dilscoop]

I think he will be busy with NHL. But sure why not.

[AsifTheManRahman]

Beiber is ma brotha' from the hood. Stratford - two exits from Waterloo. He's the kid who left town, went to the big city and made it big.

[Dilscoop]

kool! Last game of the season, last game of the WS is coming up!! aahhh!!

[Dilscoop]

ahh fuZZ! He missed me by a min last time. Now I missed him.
