And not just any sport, but a sport where a single test match lasts FIVE DAYS and they stop for tea ... in other words, a civilised sport :-)

Unlike, say, American Football, which is a 60 minute game that takes four hours because they stop for advertisements! (or so it seems), and for cheerleaders (which I heartily approve of!) and to move the cameras down markers, and for nachos and hot dogs and beer ... (while a lot of beer is consumed during a cricket match, I'm guessing there's more wine consumed during an hour of cricket than an hour of American Football!)

:-)

Cricket is a game where you'll never see a seventh inning stretch (hey, Australia barely had time to start a second inning before the game was over!)
