Howard...
You didn't finish your excellent ,clear and descriptive explanation..
Please continue...

"When both sides have been in and out, including those not out, and no longer in - that is the end of the game. (Five days later)
Of course, the side that is in (To be continued..)"
As a Canadian brought up in hockey,cricket makes no sense to me at all..
I have watched it and tried to make sense of it but can't make hide nor hair of sense of it..
As I see it a guy with a stick trys to keep a guy with a ball from wailing on a bunch of bowling pins behind home plate...
Scoring is unfathomable..
I'm sure a guy with a Enfield could make a dent on them pins from the pitching mound..but that probably wouldn't be "Cricket..""
Carry on with your excellent description of the game..We are listening...

To me cricket ranks one small step above that game that has people walking around a paddock chasing a little white ball just to get it in a hole. What's even more shocking they are usually so enthusiastic about it the silly buggers will play in all sorts of bad weather as well! But I gotta admit the only Golf I really like is the GTi made by that german company VW!..... But I'd rather sit and read a good book with a but everyone too their own I guess.....you know some folk even like CMP's!
