Sometimes in life you find something that just makes sense. Well, actually kind-of-sense.
Like, the sense that when you are at a dinner party and someone starts talking about a particular subject you can finally join in without having to:
a) make an exit to the bathroom;
or
b) pretend to be interested when in fact you would prefer to stab yourself in the eye with a fork for fun;
or
c) nodding like a yoyo while actually having no understanding of the garble they are speaking of.
The abovementioned reactions are me.. and cricket.
Look, I know it’s the Australian sport. I am meant to like it. I just don’t want to get it.
Anyway the clever folk at Buzzfeed have thrown together an explanation of cricket that even I get. It kinda makes sense now. Plus, it is funny and makes me see men with bats as superheroes.
Here is the link -> ‘Cricket explained by an american who has never seen cricket’ (Catchy title right!?).
Well, what’s the worse that is going to happen – you might actually surprise the hubby with your new found awesome cricket knowledge?
Happy cricket watching Nesters!
