    Cricket is Garbo. Who wants to bet an ALL DAY event?

    That was pretty cool seeing the tradition about cricket especially that little urn trophy haha imagine lifting up that tiny trophy compared to the Stanley Cup hahaha. Cool to see Francisco Lindor talking about his technique too

    They've got the option of 5 days as well. With added excitement that those games are easily a draw!

    I knew about cricket before but never what the actual rules or play was like, but 5 days for one game? Yeesh...it must be split into sets or innings or rounds so that can have at least a break for a meal or something during the day through to night. As for betting there must be bets can be placed on the first/middle/last/etc set or inning etc just like baseball.
