Cricket is awesome

I used to strongly dislike cricket
but in the course of soundly mocking my mate who loves it I have accidentally learned loads about it.

My girlfriend hated cricket until we started seeing each other
Now she comes down to every game (when she's not working) has learnt to mark the score book, has bought some kit and started playing for us.

The one thing I never thought I'd hear a woman say "Hi honey, you're here just in time - the cricket highlights are on."

It's one of those games that loses a lot by being on television.
It seems much more enjoyable when you're blind drunk and suffering from sun-stroke.

I still don't intend to go and watch any.
The issue I have with sport is that I appreciate displays of skill, but have absolutely no interest in who wins.

I don't particularly care if the national team wins in any sport, as long as don't lose to the Welsh at anything.
