It's great, especially when Test matches are played to a high level.

How can you not love the sight of a fast bowler knocking over a batsman and sending the stumps cartwheeling back 20 yards?

It's the most boring sport of them all and takes about 2 weeks to finish off a single match. What is a test match anyway? Do they ever play real matches?

Stupid sport, they don't play in rain, at night, or when it's windy. Bollocks to it I say.

Cricket should cease to exist.

They do play at night, to be fair. But yeah, it's not an accessible sport. T20 is though.

Probably.

But it is, at least for me, because, and this may come as a shock, everybody has different tastes.

Plus whenever I see cricket it is usually accompanied by an interview from that **** Flintoff, who I detest.

No one really knows the rules to cricket.

I watched about ten minutes of the 20/20 thing. Something weird was happening, and the "Floydd Davidson rule" had been instigated, or something. Sky had a bunch of experts sitting in a studio, arguing about what this actually meant, none of them actually knew. Then suddenly, someone shouted out "England, forty runs from six overs" or something, and they all shut up.

Nobody had a fecking clue what was going on

Can't we just take over the transfer forum for the cricket?

Nobody's using it.

This is a bizarre point of view, even if you like or indeed love cricket (weirdo). The Olympics has 301 events. If you can't see how a sporting tournament with 301 events contested by countries from all over the world needs it's own forum forum and a sporting tournament with 1 event contested by the same two countries every time doesn't need it's own forum, then you are the stupidest person who has ever lived and you need to get off the internet and indeed the planet as soon as possible. More or less.

I was once forced to go to a 20/20 game and I didn't have a clue what was going on. But it was a sunny day and I had sunglasses on so I was soaking in the sun instead, very WAG-like..

I go dragged to a game once. I didn't know who was winning, which side was which, or what was going on in general. Some of the fielders were sitting down, and nobody in the crowd was even paying any attention, because they were all too busy getting drunk.

Then, for what appeared to be no reason at all, the players all got up and went inside. It turned out because the game had finished. Nobody knew. Nobody even cared

Hold on, why do we need a cricket pavilion when there's a perfectly fine Big Brother thread in the entertainment forum that we could use?

It's a no brainer.
