Yeah Cricket is on -

[noknojon]

It must be almost summer - We have the first cricket test between Australia and West Indies -

Not the type of insect that makes noises , but the Gentlemans game of 'baseball' -

I know the Americans will not care but it is OUR World Cup of Sport - and we love it - Even though we can sleep for an hour and then come back and watch the next session -

woohoo that's awesome!!

Go your team/country! (I apologize, I am not sure which is competing for this, a team or a country).

[noknojon]

As in my 'Origin" - Australia - The teams are full country based - Selected from the best in the country - State and local teams are the base for the selection of players

A bit hard to pick 11 or 12 men from 25 million - Imagine India trying to pick a team from ???? million -

Go country!
