Hoorayyyyyyy.................!

Much like my problem with baseball & what you chaps call football. I never got my head around why they call it that.

I posted a simple explanation of cricket for 'furriners' on the previous page. [quote]The rules of cricket are quite simple really:

You have two sides: One out in the field and one in.

Yup Doug, I saw that.

I think it explains marvelously American's stance on the game

[Hagar]

It's actually nowhere near as complicated as that. Quite a simple game really. I think it's the tradition that goes with it that makes it difficult to understand. A lot of Americans over here in the UK are great cricket fans. I think this includes a former US Ambassador. Or maybe it's the current one.

Well done England. Some evening up after years of torture.

Well done to the Kangeroos though as well - they played very well too.  8)
