Isn't it when the Australian guy, the Indian guy, and the English guy (have I covered all the major cricket countries?) get dressed up in odd suits and then go out in the backyard of the Canadian kid and rub their back legs together producing a half pleasant/ half annoying sound that keeps the Canuck kid up all night on his hot, humid summer night? Cricket brings up very different memories for me. No exciting wickets and effective bowlers (look I'm trying to sound like I know what the hell I'm talking about!!)-just "Please shut up I'm trying to sleep" reflections....

Bill, there is the West Indies too...
From Jamaica to Guyana, including Antigua, Barbados and Trinidad & Tobago. It's their national game too...

A test match here involves relaxing under a Caribbean sun with a tradewinds breeze, drinking Red Stripe for 8 hours a day, for 5 consecutive days watching men in white do very little...

The perfect spectator sport....

We'd better not forget Pakistan, Sri Lanka and South Africa. And the Kiwis of course!

I'm with you Wints... a mate of mine did a tour of the West Indies during the last Aussie tour. He reckons it's an absolute must!!
