I did that about 2.30pm. After I spade and hedge clippered the edges first. And cut back the wild nasturtiums under the apple tree.

no just keeping an eye on it. Cricket scores app on your phone or in an open window on the computer. Maybe the TV on with the sound turned down while you do something else.
That kind of thing.

Ah, in this room there is cricket on the TV. The grass is quite green. A man just picked up a bit of litter. Now a man is running and throwing a ball.

Many people (such as I) don’t actually understand cricket scores. It’s always “three for eleventy nine trailing by twelve, with six wickets in hand” and suchlike.

For Bubblecar (he must have seen it before, but apparently has forgotten):
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 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 been out, and both sides have been out twice after all the men have been in, including those who are not out, that is the end of the game

All this ‘fucking’ and ‘offing’ is very delayed. Are you posting from the Moon Sibeen?
Every run is vital, inching along, if they can get a lead of 150+ it will be interesting.

Can’t be much of a commentary team if they don’t fill you in on basic info like that.
I’m betting the Indian team settled down to a Kashmiri Lamb Rogan Josh…

…while the Australians tucked into a pork loin roast with apples & pears.

A Maz Ing!
ABC News:
‘There was something surreal and unexplainable about the way India capitulated to Australia’s unrelenting pace attack to fall for a record-low score of 36 and lose the first Test, writes Russell Jackson.’
Unexplainable = ‘taking a dive in the second round’?
They’ll be better in Melbourne with a proper ball.
