For The Best Friend, to drive her nuts.

The rules of cricket:

You have two sides, one out in the field and one in. Each man that's in goes out, and when he's out he comes in and the next man goes in until he is out. When they are all out, the side that's been out comes in and the side that's been in goes out and tries to get those coming in, out. Sometimes you get men still in and not out.

When a man goes out to go in, the men who are out try to get him out, and when he is out, he goes in and the next man in goes out and goes in. There are two men called umpires who are out all the time, and they decide when the men who are in are out. When both sides have been in and all the men have been out, and both sides have been out twice after all the men have been in, including those who are not out, that is the end of the game.

PATTOTE: Catch up or be caught out.

well excsuse me but i actually do understand the game of cricket but i think it is a bit boring, i mean at least rugby allows the spectator a view of spectacular male physiques (In general; anthropological speculation on the homo erotic displays of masculine affection and bonding and its generally over in 90 minutes allowing one to get on and do other stuff. Also if it rains it just makes it more interesting and there is none of this stupid light business and the win by light/rain default.if im going to watch a game involving men and their favourite toys- balls, then at least let those men wear tight shirts and shorts.
