was that sri lanka - new zealand? I turned on some cricket match on watchespn but they were in a lunch break so I turned it off before it got boring (they were going to start playing again soon, you see).

Australia vs India at the MCG, you never have a Test Match without the home country playing, One Dayers and T20 matches tend to be whoever is touring.


Also here's a family Christmas tradition of drunk feats of strength, this one done while wearing a farmers hat:

One Dayers

Reminder that this term exists because matches that only take a single day are in fact the exception, not the rule.

To hell with cricket.

It can be entertaining to read about matches on BBC though, I can read an entire article about a cricket match, while having a good command of the English language, and still not be able to tell you who won.

That's called a draw, and tied tests have happened too. Back in the day tests didn't have a day limit and just played until a result, where one test in the 1950's had to be ended "prematurely" because Australia had to get on the boat to go back home from South Africa.

T20's are the new form of the game, takes about as long as a game of baseball, garbage cricket.

yeah, once you stay awake through an entire match you tend to realize how horrible cricket is.

these guys are dick-cunts and assbutts of the finest order, and they're really good at cricket as they are at every other sport, but right now they're in disarray so hopefully they don't rear end the butt gently caress out of a win in this horseshit.
