2007 T20 Cricket World Cup, South Africa

posted by Paul
There's been great excitement over the start of the 20/20 Cricket World Cup. Twenty overs a side makes for a really quick-paced game - fun to watch for cricket-lovers and non-cricket-lovers all round.

We spent the day first watching Bangladesh and Australia slogging it out (with the men in yellow winning comfortably), and then seeing South Africa getting off to a slow start, but ultimately beating England.

It hasn't been a great weekend for English sport, but on the other hand it's been an absolutely wonderful weekend for us Springbok and Protea supporters.

Congratulations Albie on winning Man of the Match!

Wow. I thought this was a country fair with all the people. I am surprised to learn it is at a cricket match. Nice photo.

I just began a new site about Japan in the early 1950s when we were there. You can get to it from my Brookville daily photo blog. Times have changed a lot there too over the 50-plus years since we were there.

Thanks for the visit, Paul, and I hope you appreciate some of the pictures there. I will keep adding them until I run out of time. Most of the old fellows get tears in their eyes when they see these pictures. It reminds them of those days when they were young and wandering the world even if in uniform. Thanks again.
