No brain cells for cricket


A conversation between me and my colleague about cricket. Please note this country don't have any cricket team and they don't know much about cricket except that it is played with a bat and a ball :)

ME: You know Pakistan smashed England in test match(wide opened eyes)
HE: Oh great, but I don't know much about cricket.

ME: Ya, I know many Swedes don't understand this.
HE: So, what is a test match?

ME: (Stressing my brain) Ummm it's a 5-days long innings and played between two teams. And rest there are so many rules.
HE: Ahhh quite long.

ME: Yeah, but it is fun too (passing little smile)
HE: Umm so, how long is the real match then?

ME: (Little confused) What you mean by real match?
HE: Yeah, if TEST match is 5 days long, then real match must be very long.

ME: Taking a long breath and unable to say anything more :P


Keep Smiling,
