    You should only solicit a response from people in countries who play the dammed game, US for instance does not play it and I'd bet less that 5% have any idea about the game. 5 days for a test match - :zzz: :zzz: 1 day matches - these can be fun to watch. 4 hours for 20/20 - I've never actually watched one of these

        Not really that I would worry where a person lives in. I was curious to know how many are there in our community, who doesn't give a crap to cricket. :)

              I used to watch cricket ever since I knew about it. Later, when I learnt that it was all about gambling/match-fixing, I gave up watching it.I still play cricket and basketball with my colleagues to keep fit.

                    It and I have reached a gentleman's agreement: I won't watch it, and it can go about its boringness without me.

                      The only good things about cricket are Pimms and Lemonade and Cucumber sandwiches. Of course, it is an ideal game for drinking and eating as a spectator, as very little actually happens. Its just an excuse to sit in the shade of a tree in the English summer and get slowly drunk woth your friends while the occcasional something happens on the pitch.

                                        What kind? Single? Double? Skeet? I haven't done any in years. My maternal uncles are really into it and I'm thinking of taking it up.

                                        I'm primarily a sporting shot but shoot almost everything else. Shot sporting, skeet and all-round for the county. Sporting, FITASC, and Compak for Wales. 90% of my shooting is sporting and shoot skeet, skeet doubles and flushes the most.

                                          Elephant Polo, Man! Thats the one true sport! ;P

                                          Let's think the unthinkable, let's do the undoable, let's prepare to grapple with the ineffable itself, and see if we may not eff it after all.
