Who says cricket's boring?
Posted by: Komet on 19 June 2015
2,676 runs scored at 7.3 an over, two wins each, records broken. So who's gonna win the decider tonight?
Cycling is very boring to watch Bert - I can go to the next street & watch people catching the bus, but I don't really find that interesting as sport either. I'm sure it is great for competitors, but as a spectator sport - no. The guy who crosses the line first is not even the winner. Not that you can see the finish.
Sorry - I'll never understand the attraction of the TDF as a spectator sport (though our news report said not that many people watch it anyway).
Still - agree with your last statement
Lol, that made me smile even at prework time of the morning. International bus catching on Sky Sports 1, I can see it now. The Germans will win, although from memory the Turks are brilliant at it.

You should try getting on a bus in India, it's at least as exciting as Rugby.

Cricket is just pants compared to Bus Catching!

I once got on a bus from Jhansi (UP) to Khajuraho (MP) and a chain gang got on it together with their armed guards.

Cricket IS boring whilst the Australians are doing so well! Pull finger England!
Pulled the plug, more like. Oh dear, oh dear. 
Cricket is a very simple game.
To win you simply need to play less rubbish than your opponents.
Cricket only becomes less boring when both teams are equally inept.
If cricket was played naked, this would put new dynamics on the game and probably attract a certain new type of audience

Only in case of female teams, with a lot of breaks with close ups...., that would get me excited for cricket...... under all other circumstances......., forget about me....

Haven't you seen Women's beach volleyball?
Hope you get to see some action on Saturday, Bruce. Weather permitting I think you should as I can't see the Aussie's being so careless in their second innings. While England are now only 3 runs behind, two of the three wickets were rather given away, so more discipline will be needed on Day 2 if the first inning lead is going to make the Aussies sweat. I'd settle for a lead of three hundred before the Aussies bat again.

It looks like England are in a pattern of winning every 2nd test this summer. Winners sequence is England, New Zealand, England, Australia, and presumably England again. This means that England will lose the 4th test and triumphantly win the deciding 5th test. So well done in anticipation!
