Yup. Ive got accustomed to most of it but occasionally I have a “wait what?” moment.

I'm sure it's much easier to understand if you have grown up with it. I don't have to ever watch American sports to have a clear idea of what is going on. They all have pretty standard (if not algorithmic) play-by-play.

Cricket's play-by-play reads like Shakespeare.

Happy to help out. Not sure about updates for the game today. It’s a 10 pm start and tomorrow is a school/work day for me.

Mostly yes. I did get a chance to see them and do some highlight watching.

I would also like to nominate the following emojis for the taking of a wicket

🥢 the chopsticks are the only actual sticks by themselves
👋 the good old wave goodbye
💥 always solid explosion as the wicket just blew up your plans

We also have the gloves for our wicket keeper 🧤
