I'm not a cricket fan in the least and think that in general it is pretty dull (I never got a bat or bowl at school) but I did end up watching the last bit of the test.
I suppose if it was like this all the time it would be ok but what can you really say about something that takes 5 days to play and ends up in a draw.

My entire cricket career in full (at school, years ago)

First ball - straight where it shouldnt go (and I wasnt wearing a box) :shock:

Second ball - miss ball, ball sails into wickets, walk off dejectedly :oops:

Spend rest of afternoon fielding in a spot about a mile away from the batsman, dont see the ball for the rest of the day :wink:


Never get picked for team again.

I'll stick to surfing.... 8)
