Cricket -- the name of the game




Here are the results of my formal introduction to cricket.  Turns out you aren't allowed to 'throw' the ball (ie bend your elbow when 'bowling').  Tough to unlearn 34 years of conditioning!


Here I am trying my hand at Bowling.  Not so bad as to choke a dog!

You can go to the following link to learn a bit more about cricket...just like I did!"

These are the grounds at Worcester College where we had the game.  Pretty cool!
