Have you ever wondered what would happen if a game demanded inaction? Have you ever wondered how whacking a ball with a stick could be made un-fun? Have you ever listened to the sound of ten thousand minds shutting off for the night?

  • I'm sure you can find "a lot" of "meaning" in something simple if you try hard enough.

  • 1:38 Hahahah. I'm sorry, that just isn't entertaining. Any yank that agrees with me is OK in my books. America is, after all, the entertainment capital of the world.

  • @Nizzleson no i think cricket is englands greatest crime to the human race

  • @MattHXIV The catcher does, coz he puts his body behind every pitch. In cricket, the ball can be legally bowled at a batsman's face, legs, groin, throat. And not just once to milk a walk. A good cricket batsman can face hundreds of deliveries in a single innings. Hence the protection.

  • @MattHXIV. Sure. Don't need to tell me about post collonialism. But with all the bad shit the English took around the globe come some good things too. Like Cricket. Tertiary education. And sitcoms that don't have Charlie Sheen in them.

  • @kinkongization who are the ones wearing padding? baseball players dont even wear face guards

  • @ashwinmssuv no many english people and europeans hate it too, simply because it is boring

  • @Nizzleson most of them live in countries pillaged by the briitish empire

  • Respectfully disagree. Cricket is a game of subtlety. If you don't know what you're looking at, if might seem boring. But once you understand what you're looking at, it becomes an enthralling battle of wits, skill, fitness, concentration, finesse, and tactics.  There is a very good reason that billions of people love cricket: It is awesome.

  • Americans don't have the patience or confidence to play cricket so they hate cricket.That's called sour grapes
