Loading ...She’ll totally fall in love with it. My believe is that cricket by nature is a female friendly sport, the most female friendly sport of all. The only reason why each and every girl on the plannet doesn’t like cricket is because like every other good thing, men tend to keep their cricket to them selves, if they didn’t we would have ruled.
The essence of our addiction

“Test Match Cricket is like guided meditation. The cricket purist will be riveted, the rest will just find it boring.”
Wise words from someone here (there’s a video too). I don’t know if he ripped it from someone else, but it’s rather accurate, not to mention splendid. In fact, my soon-to-be-famous filmstar friend – who won’t appreciate me putting her name here – is sheepishly adamant* that, given my job, she will eventually not only learn cricket’s rules but learn to like it.
Both of us remain unconvinced.
* Can adamance be described as sheepish? Discuss!

So much so that she might even bump you off this blog and take over and may even turn the colors here into the pastel shades of the pinks, lavenders and purples, and have RSS feeds from the Oprah show!!!:)
Jokes aside, as in most ‘male’ sports, women are not expected to understand what is going on. And since they do not understand, how can anything they say make any sense at all, anyway!
I have watched games with a few cricket-intelligent women and the conversation and discussions were far from ‘ignorant’ or ‘unintelligent’. Credit where and when it’s due, I say
me two penny bits!
ta very much!:)
