CRICKET
(as explained to a foreign visitor)
You have two sides: one out in the
field and one in.
Each man that's in the side that's
in goes out and when he's out he comes in and the next man goes in until he's out.
When they are all out, the side
that's out comes in and the side that's been in goes out and tries to get those coming in
out.
Sometimes you get men still in and
not out.
When a man goes out to go in, the men who
are out try to get him out, and when he is out he goes in and the next man in goes out and
goes in.
There are two men called umpires who stay
all out all the time and they decide when the men who are in are out.
When both sides have been in and all the men
have out, and both sides have been out twice after all the men have been in, including
those who are not out,
That's the end of the game.
HOWZAT!
