Cricket enthusiasts can grab their own quirky 'World Cup Special- The Book Cricket Notebook' to play the game by merely flipping pages.

The quirky notebook with a built-in cricket game has been designed inhouse by The Bicycleman & The Geek Company and is available on www.whysoserious.co.in, a portal for cool and fun merchandise.

The 'book', best suited for seasoned couch potatoes, gives you a chance to play a match sitting where you are.

It has pages marked with runs, some pages marked as 'Out', some are 'No balls' and some pages even have commercials. Play the game with your friend -- open the pages, see how many runs you make and how many your friend makes, who gets out and who gets to make a century.

With a stylish and attractive hard bound cover, there is a scoreboard too to keep a tab on your scores.

The book, priced at Rs.899, can be sneaked in and can become a great piece of entertainment during long conference calls or long drives.
