Marvelous game, really. You see, the bowler hurls the ball toward the batter who tries to play away a fine leg. He endeavors to score by dashing between the creases, provided the wicket keeper hasn't whipped his bails off, of course.

I love when there's an LBW and the umpire just raises his finger and calls the guy out, all calmly. great sport, i wish i could watch more. its very, very english

Can you even find yon game on American TV? This year's Ashes sounded spectacular, but it's not the same watching web updates.

Back to describing baseball: it's like cricket for those with short attention spans.
