I had been told that Americans were no good at sex because they will not delay gratification.Not simple enough! Any game that complicated would never fly here in the States, especially one so drawn out and dependent on delayed gratification. We don't do delayed gratification.

Cricket is a game not a sport and is a social event above anything else. The contest is between bat and ball, spectators go to watch the game and admre great performances, the loyalty to any team comes second to any individual performance. I like it but I understand why some don't, some just see it as organised laziness.
