Following an exchange with Mick on another thread, I am reminded that some years ago I was listening to a particularly exciting one-day cricket match on the car radio.

I think we needed 13 runs from the final over against the Aussies with Lamb batting.

I was so engrossed with the excitement of it all that by the time that the match finished, I had absolutely no idea where I was. :shock:

Hmm! Just googled it and found it was 1987 so not quite so old then!

Memory let me down on the number of runs needed from the last over though. It was 18, which he achieved with one ball to spare.

I didn't know that you could use the words 'cricket' and 'exciting' in the same sentence without also using the word 'not' . . . :gmc:

I remember saying to my Mum re: Cricket "I'd rather watch paint dry" :stirer:

I was met with a rather stern stare and "I loved stopping by the cricket ground and watching the matches on my way home from school" :em:

Funny really, I've been watching the 20/20 matches just recently. And No it's nothing to do with the cheerleaders!!
