Reminds me of what I think about baseball, and the one country "world series".

There's very few rules, and the ones there are, are very straight forward. It's about as simple a game as you can get.

I really enjoy watching it when Ireland are playing but wouldn't have too much interest outside of that.

Real shame they couldn't finish the job against the Windies tonight. In a great position. Those bangs on the heads of McBrine and Balbirnie proved really costly in the end.

Know nothing about cricket or the rules or anything like that but have seen the 1st two episode of this. Fascinating documentary. Never knew anything of this story before. What an absolute spoofer this guy was. But it just goes to show in life if you have a big character and can talk you can go a long way. Sometimes without any substance behind it. 
Well, it certainly didn't do Boris Johnson any harm getting into 10 Downing Street. Unhappy
The nation holds it's breath...YES, WE'RE THERE!!!
