this is why i don't like cricket...this is why i LOVE it

this link is for a video. The commentator is England batting legend, Goeffrey Boycott. He is describing a radio presenter that he was talking to earlier. The radio dj is quite young and 'hip'.

The cricket commentating team are so funny, and this is just one of hundreds of funny moments. If you need help understanding him, let me know.

This picture shows that the game revolves around food...a nice tea interval.

 

This moment was captured on my phone. This is called a beer snake. Cricket fans are so considerate that they do the cleaners' job for them- they collect the plastic cups and make a long a 'snake' as possible until the crowd stewards stop the fun. As you can see, though, the snake breaks and may spill on someone. The chant then starts up, 'feed the snake and it will growww!'
