Have we decided how you can take a wicket in thread cricket? I can only see being caught out as working...
Also, which team are people on? Or is a la French cricket, with the batsman ( last poster ) against all comers?

Don't be silly. A reasonable person could belive in Santa Claus, but nobody would ever believe cricket is actually real....

To call cricket shite would be kind! Cricket is the most dead boring bloody game there is, and could bore the bollocks off a brass bull, but me 'usband loves it. I mean, 'e loves watchin' it! You wouldn't catch 'im playin' it anymore, but 'e tells me that in 'is youth 'e was the champion of 'is entire district. Roight! And I'm the Queen of England! I fink cricket is a good fing becoz it keeps stupid blokes wot might otherwise be roamin' around committin' public offences in front of their telly, and that carn't be all bad.

Yes

Or to be more specific, compared to football --- No.


BTW do many Brits try understanding baseball or American Football?

Spasms of action interspersed with advertising time-outs, injury time-outs, time-out timeouts.

Apart from the crashes one could describe Nascar in a similar vein, it is the nature of things that if you are not interested it IS boring.

Dare we take a vote on F1?

Nothing like Rugby Eric. Rugby is payed by MEN with ATHLETIC ABILITY and COURAGE, not overpaid Big Girl's Blouses who can't run for more than 5 seconds without needing a rest and who're scared shitless of getting a few bruises.
