Nothing beats a close test match though.

Cricket's so boring you've ended up talking to yourself.

I used to go to the Trent Bridge test every year. Loved it. Used to play as well.
It`s way too subtle for most folk to grasp whats going on but the coverage on TV is helping hugely.

It's true I'll not be remembered for my cavalier batting.
None better at running between the wickets.

But I am just a weak and feeble woman, and I am awaiting a big, strong man to move the cooker and washing machine so I can clean underneath.
There's only Adam here, so I've got a long wait.

Grab Adam by the legs, turn him upside down and use him as a mop.

Trent Bridge is my favourite ground .Traditional set up.I am lucky as I live similar distance away from Old Trafford,Trent Bridge and Edgbaston.

It's probably my abiding memory of being a junior playing senior cricket, you standing in the middle of the wicket setting your field as if directing traffic, as Stennys already fairly mad captain was trying to take guard.

Anyway, he's not got enough hair for that.
Intrigue - over to Monster....
Final suggestion - get him aroused and use him like a hoover tool. (I'll leave you to judge how far back you'll reach).

I love listening to test matches on the radio though, its so soothing! I did loads of project work last year with the ashes playing on the radio to keep me company through the night. Its such a good sport for radio, what with the calm commentary, the fielding positions (silly mid off??) and suchlike.
On tv though, I much prefer 20twenty, just because of the excitement. Really got into the world cup this year, and there were some great matches!
