I went out to watch some matches on Saturday. I was surprised how much a cricket bat is a cross between a ping pong paddle and a tennis racquet. The ball is about the size of a hardball but it is covered with spongy rubber and has slits cut in it.
There was lots of beer, teams from all over the island and few spectators.
The event was on Xiang Xang behind the post office, I went to support my co-workers in the tournament and I learned everything I ever wanted to know about cricket.
