Sri Lanka vs. New Zealand - who will you be rooting for? - Page 3

Gone for the kiwis. Mainly 'cos they're the underdogs from here (although 20 off Fernando's last over has helped), but also because I'm a Union fan & feel an affinity with the country who shares my love for the sport. So it's a ego thing, really...

I'm going for the Lankans.

I like to be on the side that's winning.

That's why I don't support Australia.

As i've mentioned before, picked SL to win the tournament from the outset so...yeah.

Richard · 24-04-2007, 03:13 PM

Thought you were a Kiwi.

There's really no need for that line on you're specific cricket related posts...as it's obvious they're not to be taken seriously...but yeah, on the one line banter, it's ambiguous.

^ At almost a fifth of people supporting Hitler during the match. I didn't even know he was playing.

He wasn't. He died 62 years ago.

Going above and beyond to support him then eh? I was personally going for New Zealand.
