I never understood that game. Being an old baseball catcher I can't relate to a game where every pitch has to bounce in the dirt.
I think few people really understand all the "laws" of Cricket. We do, though, understand enough to enjoy it. A proper test match takes five days, which might be considered excessive, and sometimes I puzzle over how the final score works out.

FWIW, I don't understand American Football. Does the ball even matter? laugh
