I visited trinity college and watched a team practicing cricket. I had no idea how the game worked, but it looked enjoyable and I saw some athletic catches. Also, I could tell one pitcher? (ball thrower guy?) had a much smoother form.
I like watching sports I don’t know about and trying to figure out the rules and scoring system. I also rarely look it up after the fact.
Cricket was tough. Still have no idea how many of the rules work or how you score…or what those sticks are.
I was even more confused by hurling. Insanely fast paced game. But the way they advanced the ball up field was something I couldn’t really figure out and the scoring options. Those guys may be the best conditioned non-track athletes in the world.
