NEVER TRUST A CRICKETER, WHOEVER HE MAY BE!
Come all ye fair young maidens and harken unto me, Never trust a cricketer, whoever he may be. Randier than a sailor who's been six months at sea, Never let a cricketer's hand an inch above your knee.
First let's take the paceman, pure speed from first to last! My darlings do be careful; his balls are hard and fast.
Then there's the medium pacer, his balls swing either way; He's really most persistent and can keep it up all day!
And watch for the off-spinner, girls, another awkward chap. If you leave him half an opening, he will slip one through the gap!
Then there's the wily 'slowy', pure cunning is his strength; He'll tempt you, then he'll trap you with his very subtle length. So ladies, do be careful, your mothers would agree. Never trust a cricketer, whoever he may be.
And what about the opening bat, his struggles never cease! He has only one ambition, to spend all day at the crease.
The number three is a dasher, he seldom prods and pokes. When he goes into action, he has a fine array of strokes..
And do beware the slogger, not content with one or two; When he arrives at the crease then only six will do.
Then there's the real stonewaller, girls, he knows what he's about; And if you let him settle in, it's hard to get him out!
We come now to the last man, I hope this will not shock, He doesn't mind if he's last man in, as long as he gets a knock. So, darlings, do be careful, and be well warned by me: Never trust a cricketer, whoever he may be.
And watch the wicketkeeper, girls, he's full of flair and dash; And if you raise your heel, he'll whip them off in a flash.
If you take the field with the captain, you had better know the score; Or he'll have you in positions that you never knew before!
The cricket commentator is a nasty sort of bloke, He watches all the action and describes it stroke by stroke.
Even the kindly umpire, who looks friendly as a pup; You'll quickly find you've had it, when he puts his finger up!
So, darlings, please remember and repeat it after me: NEVER TRUST A CRICKETER, WHOEVER HE MAY BE!

But seriously, folks..as I'm going to be headed over to my birth country next year, I probably should try to at least figure out how the game works. Any suggestions? Serious answers only and nothing negative...right. :rotflmao:
