Cricket...

Yo, its Mr.Mercutio.

Hehe, that rhymes :)

Cricket. What a strange game. I love to both play and watch cricket, and i am currently watching Hampshire vs. Yorkshire, with Yorkshire 233 all out, and Hampshire 39-0. Hampshire seem to be doing well, so hopefully they will win.

So cricket, it's a great sport, and despite the enjoyment i gain from playing it, i must say it's a very tedious game. Not just because of the stop-start sort of effect it has, but because over how much cricket player's are wusses. I mean the tiny of bit's of rain, and BLAM the players run off, the covers come on and they don't play another ball. How stupid? Why can't they just play a little in the rain? I mean, i play hockey, and we literally play in any weather. Whether it's freezing cold, or pelting it down with hailstones, we still played! So it angers me when they don't play if the conditions aren't perfect.

But the people who must get most annoyed-Whoop SIX, sorry watching cricket, a fine shot i must say,- But the people who we should feel sorry for is the people who pay fifty pounds to watch one day of a test match, then have the whole day cancelled due to a tiny bit of rain. I mean, how would you feel if you spent all the money, then arrived at the rose bowl or where ever, and the smallest bit of rain cancels a whole day of test cricket?

OH! What a match! Came right down to the last ball. Hampshire managed to win after a nail biting last five overs.

Anyway, read the blog. Now. :)
