Pakistani Cricket Madness
Today is the last ODI (one day international, for you less cricket savy readers) and my dh and his best friend Yasir are watching in the living room, while I am chilling in the bedroom. I am definitely cricketed out after having watched every match in the last series. For those of you who don't know, a one day cricket match lasts approximately 8 hours and when they are playing Pakistan, the game starts at 1 am and goes until about 9 am. So you have to stay up all night and watch. I will say that I am a secret fan now, even though I complain about it. And of course I cheer for Pakistan! I even know most of the players. My faves, Shahid Afriidi (he hits all those sixes!) and Inzamam (the captain, I think he looks like a big teddy bear). I don't like Shoaib Akhtar because he had such an attitude and his hair is always long and greasy, lol. Sorry if I butchered any of their names. Well, it is 3 am now and England is batting, and I am ready for sleep. Can't wait till January when Pakistan plays India, I am sure that we will be up all night for that too!
