True, you do have to be dead before you win the "Saint'' gong, meaning you'll never enjoy the gentle pleasure of bumping some hapless traveller out of first class and taking your rightful position at the pointy end of the plane. England has enough saints to form a celestial choir complete with roadies but not one Australian passport holder has formally had "Heaven'' stamped on their last earthly page. And while ordinary Australians might prioritize cricket over canonization this, frankly, rankles. True, the majority of our first European settlers were convicted criminals, but given God is firmly on the record as loving sinners it's a genuine puzzle why this place wasn't crawling with Saint Sheilas and Beatified Bruce's by the mid-19th century.

Of course, no self-respecting curler would ever covet their record. However, there are some things about these characters that's endearing. Take Roberts' unique broom, for example. It's a combination of a cricket bat and a curling brush. "It's the most expensive broom in the world," Roberts boasts. "The bat cost me $550, and the brush was about a buck. No, we wouldn't embarrass the country by trying to attempt to do it ourselves," said [Munro-Smith]. "We're not here to terrorize anyone.

Team member Amjad Malile has a background as a professional cricket coach and was instrumental in organizing the game in Brandon and said it's great to see the sport he's passionate about turning heads. Businesses we go to say, 'Oh, if you're a hockey team for sure we'll give you funding, but cricket, we don't really know, it's not for us.' Funding or not, Britto said the Brandon Cricket Club will forge ahead with its plans to develop the sport in the Wheat City.

We've had nothing but sunshine for the last six weeks," said a visibly distraught [Ron Dipchand], who is also executive director of the Manitoba Cricket Association. "Last year the entire field was under water. "Especially if it's plus 30 out here, you need a lot of physical endurance and mental endurance to concentrate for that long," he said, adding that the best players are skilled at catching (without gloves) and throwing, and have outstanding eye-hand co-ordination. "The team is pretty young, and (Dipchand) thought they needed someone with more experience to show them how things were done," said [David Hakes]. For today's finale, Dipchand and his team only want to avoid one thing -- bad weather.
