Not really, all that weird terminology is annoying:
Africa 663/5 -8 NZ 432/2 -64.8 Windies need a short leg and a pickled egg to draw - 4 from 7, 8 balls from -41 overs, wind speed 21mph, stop for tea if it doesn't rain before Tuesday and all out for 9 if no wickets for the remaining 71 overs and a bit plus vat

Ye can get confusing at times as too many rules and alot of different terminology.
Quick game like t20 or t10 cricket might be up your alley. Fun format of cricket.

I don't mind watching the actual game.
If they could just score like football or rugby it would be great: Lancashire 131 Yorkshire 108.
Lancashire win because 131 is a bigger number than 108.
No they cant do that, it's always a pile of crappy numbers so no one knows who's won until the commentator explains

Lol ye I get where you coming from. It can be confusing not just for new fans even older fans alike.
Especially with stupid rules they have brought in over the years and modern technology has made the game more confusing at times.

Remember that game and brilliant spell.
Malinga in his prime with that slingy action was a nightmare to bat against.

England legend. Doesnt get enough recognition imo.

One of the best winning finishes I have seen for long time. Watched it live last year and was legendary then as it is now. One man carried them to victory and with only one wicket left as well. Amazing.

Best cricket world cup final ever imo. Dramatic all the way through. Twists and turns and both teams had chances throughout to win it. Some may say England were lucky or even cheated. But Umpires messed up with the crucial decision at the end not england.
Either way that super over was something else.

The India Pakistan Rivalry is something that millions of cricket fans from around the world love spectate. There are some really amazing and historic moments that happen in the past matches.

Yep for me thats the best rivalry in cricket. I would put it above England/Australia.
There is serious tension and dare I say it hatred when both pakistan/india play.
No doubt India has dominated the matches in ICC tournaments over the last 15 years or so thats for sure.
Also a travesty both dont play bilateral series all because of BS politics of both countries.

if the political tensions end somehow, it will be great to watch the series between both teams...

Sadly that wont ever happen.
All we can look forward to is them facing each other in tournaments.
