Never understood Cricket. Play a Game for 5 days and it can still be a draw? No thanks.

Cant imagine wanting to pick this Game up either, still there will be loads that do, no doubt.

er if you don't understand the concept of cricket, nor have the inclination to try then why post about a topic your not interested in only to tell people your not interested in it?

Cause' there making a Game out of it and what with this being a Gaming website.

I felt it was appropriate to comment on this story, as I would expect anyone who comes on here to be able to post whatever they want (within reason) when they want. OK?

Which makes your commentary on our commentary what exactly? Brings to mind the saying, "Who's the bigger fool? The fool or the one who follows him"? As StoncoldMC has already stated this is a games website intended for news and discussion. We are contributing to the discussion of this game by expressing our points of view. Freedom of expression is a wonderful thing as I'm sure you can attest to having just exercised that right by criticizing our right to do the same. Aren't you glad neither of us mentioned "double-standard"? Oh wait...

Oh man, I'd love a decent Cricket game! The best sport in the whole world ever (after football, obviously), and it is time that someone would make a fun home version of it.

To all the doubters, or those who 'don't get cricket' I laugh hard in your face!

Oh yeah, just called you all out, and there's nothing you can do about it! Me and cricket FTW!

On the wii, with motion plus, this could be really fun. Admittedly, probably for cricket fans only.

There's something awesome about cricket - I like a sport where it feels like it would be perfectly acceptable to stop play, have a cigar and a brandy while parading around St Johns Wood in a dashing white ensemble.

Oh and CVG, the first test was a draw (just), so it can't be a whitewash!

Saw the headline on the homepage and thought I might be getting to play as Gene Hunt! But it's just cricket. I'm with the guys above, never got cricket.
