CRICKET BLOWS!!! Why do you gotta dress like a fuckin retard? hahaha

[irishgodfatherchris]

they've been dressing like that for about 150 years why would they change their uniforms, cricketers wear white so they can see the ball

[qwertyzook]

i didnt say WHY they would change it.. i said why the fuck do they dress like a retard, why couldnt they make it look better!?

[irishgodfatherchris]

@qwertyzook anyway thats only the standard uniform in different countries and different formats of the game the umpires wear a different uniform for example in most 20/20 games in Australia the umpires wear red but they do sometimes wear blue, white I have seen an umpire dressed in yellow before so he didn't look like a player.

You have the 'leg-bye' and 'penalty runs' signals wrong.

Leg bye is signalled by tapping the leg, but there's no need to signal a bye with your other hand.

Penalty runs are signalled by either tapping or placing (depending on whether it's to the batting or fielding team) one hand on your opposite shoulder.

Other than that, a jolly good show.

[irishgodfatherchris]

in local cricket games in Australia we signal a leg bye by patting our leg and also putting our hand up
