It's a much better spectator sport when you know all the technicalities and details. I find it absolutely fascinating, but I compete and coach fencing so I have an eye for it.

Yeah it just seemed hard to follow and get into when I didn't know much about it. The people watching at the venue were going mad for it so maybe there's more to it than I thought :tongue:

If you were watching the BBC coverage, that doesn't help.
The commentary is absolutely shocking. It doesn't really help out people who've never done the sport.

Only people who are crap at cricket think it is boring to play. What is boring exactly? Batting is exciting, bowling is exciting, wicketkeeping is exciting.
