The US cricket team orchestrated a shocking defeat of powerhouse Pakistan following a dramatic Super Over victory at the Men’s T20 Cricket World Cup on Thursday in Dallas.
I think that language is more referring to the fact that nobody in the United States gives a shit about cricket. Like most (99.999%+) Americans wouldn’t have the slightest idea where to find a cricket field.
Edit: I did a quick Google and it’s more like 99.942% not playing, so astonishingly, it’s probably fair to say that only 99.9% of Americans cannot locate a cricket field. I would have thought it’d be significantly closer to 100%.
It looks like they won fair and square. “Orchestrates” is such a strange word choice.
I think they mean in the sense of a quality play but yeah weird title lol
I think you’re right. Kind of like how in India every insurance plan or pension is called a “scheme” which to my American ear makes it sound sinister.
Well we are talking about insurance,
That’s a holdover from the UK. They also use the same terminology.
They committed a conspiracy to win. Schemed it ahead of time and everything.
