So, who's up for a game of Mornington Crescent?? (come on Greg, it'd be right up your street).
Hi Matt!

When the first man in is out he goes in and the next man in goes out and goes in. When the men on the team that is in are all out, the team that was out comes in and the team that's been in goes out and tries to get those coming in, out. There are also men called umpires who are always out and they decide when the men who are in are out.
Sometimes men will be in when their team goes out. They are not out, but they are out.
When both teams have gone out twice and been in and all the men are out twice, including those who are not out, that is the end of the game.
And this is why, despite having lived in England for nearly all of my 37 years (barring holidays and the odd month for work) I still don't, and doubt I ever will, understand cricket.
