so i received my first lesson in cricket, purely educational with no hands-on experience required. the big series has been on-going for a month, pitting the best of pakistan with the formidable indian team. anybody with a sense of national pride is watching the games, and seeming as we're one of few people who own a tv, it's convenient for people to drop by. no worries though, it's an entertaining break from our regular routine. anyway, based on my experience of how the scores are displayed on tv, i was under the impression the score was 245-8. quite an overwhelming deficit to work your way out of... potentially a point where perhaps some sort of mercy rule should be considered to spare the embarrassment of such a prolonged whippin'. apparently, the second number isn't the score, but how many wickets have been made (outs for us north americans). the other teams' score? you're just supposed to remember that, you are rooting for them aren't you?
