Anyone cricket fan here?
I like to watch cricket matches on tv. I remember that, one I left my exam to see india pakistans match.

I've never even seen it played, but I would like to know more about it. It looks, from what little I have seen and heard, pretty interesting. Plus the cricket bat looks pretty cool.

As one American said, after watching a match for an hour, 'great game, when does it start?'

Haha, I am hearing for the first time one do not know about cricket games. Anyway its just like baseball. One throws ball targetting the wickets and other hits the ball preventing the wicket.

It said trying to explain cricket is impossible, and I must say, I never believed it untill i tried exp;aiing it to people.

I love the game, all forms of it. Saw SA play Pakistan this weekend (which, b.t.w. we won, ofcourse!)

Great game. "I don't like cricket, I love it' as the great master sang!

AH

When I was in Sinapore I went to a cricket match and as a naive American I was totally confused, especially when everyone stopped for tea. I do not know if that is standard, but I was amazed that a break like that was taken.

I used to work with a couple of guys who always talked Cricket. One was from Pakistan, and the other was from Guyana. I must admit, their enthusiasm made me curious about the sport (Though I'm not a baseball fan), and I find it interesting that people from different countries can find a common interest like that.
