Referring to NatWest Series [India in England] - 4th ODI 2007

1. It kills a whole day. Most games are finished, showered and changed in 2 hours or less. Cricket bucks the trend of modern society and meanders at its own pace. An evening game is crammed into around 3 hours and weekend matches are at least an afternoon. Who cares if you have better things to do? Playing cricket is like a tiny holiday every weekend. Except you get to play a game as well as top up your tan.
2. It’s a mind game. Is any sport a greater challenge to patience and concentration than cricket?
