I watched my first ever game of cricket this week. A friend of mine on an Australian football forum has been trying to get me into the sport, knowing that I am a baseball fan, so I downloaded the first Australia v India T20 match (it's obviously not broadcasted here).
For a fan of baseball, it really isn't hard to appreciate a game of cricket, despite their very significant differences. However, that's the T20 version of the sport I'm talking about - it lasted a little over 3 hours. The idea of a test game going on for 5 days (and a test series lasting nearly a month) is still pretty nuts to me.
That Indian batter, Virat Kohli, he's pretty good, isn't he!
