Every time I post something here about cricket someone (usually a crumpet-type person) whines that cricket stories are boring and that, anyway, no-one understands the game.To save me from (again) pointing out the name of the fucking blogsite, which is one reason there aren’t a lot of fashion tips or recipe ideas here, I present the following which I hope will be useful to the few of you still living in blissful ignorance.
Please note that there are only 7 rules to cricket, the batsman and the bowler wear protective gear, and you must run having hit the ball. Oh and India will win the game, which is pretty much the case. Apart from that, I think I know less about the game than I did before I watched this rather dreadful video.
But hopefully this will explain the game a bit more to the women, Americans and Scotchmen among you. Enjoy.
Pip pip.
I’d like to know how the bowler gets that much movement on the ball. I hope he’s English!
Hmmm…. maybe an Atherton XI. Or that lot that often get caught for ball tampering and match fixing. Can’t remember there name.
