Cricket fans only. Commentary is good. Will only find favour with cricket fans. Others will find it insanely boring. Peter Oliver A Brief History of Cricket.
Cricket isn t exactly the most thrilling of sports.
Basically England and old English colonies. Probably because they were invaded 200 years ago by strange looking blokes with muskets who said play cricket, it s fun. Someone probably tried to argue somewhere along the line and got his head blown off. So the colonies took to cricket straight away. If you'd just been stuck in a ship for 6 months you'd probably want a game of cricket when you arrived at the place you were discovering.
