Now for some great ninja turtle wisdom "Cricket? Nobody understands cricket! You gotta know what a crumpet is to understand cricket! "

I was in South Africa last year and was able to catch a game live and saw a couple on TV. Having never watched cricket, understood cricket, and going into it with the expectations of a terribly slow, boring, dated game I was pleasantly surprised. The games don't last overly long, it's easy to pick up, and there is always action going on. Twenty20 cricket is a sport that hopefully does catch on. I really enjoyed the games and all the conversations I have with cab drivers now are not as awkward.

Go Delhi Daredevils!
