I do not understand cricket

[Haris]

Dry compared to what? If you mean soccer, then you are setting the wrong benchmarks. Its a different game.

*football (not soccer)


Well it does compete with snooker and golf on my list of dry sports




I don't mind playing it but watching it is a harder endeavour....but as you can see from this thread I am trying!

As I said, its a subjective thing. I understand that someone who hasn't grown up playing it, cricket would be a very tough game to enjoy.

Would you get a chance to play it? That might make you understand the game or perhaps even like it!

Khalsa is right, real cricket is test, that is where you see the quality of the game. To many it is boring, but to others it is a real treat. However it has been awhile since I have seen one, and I miss the Ashes. If anything Ashes is the among the few cricketing events I really look forward to.
