It just is cricket


I can imagine the bouncing shoulders, being very amused when he met batsman Salman Butt.

How delighted I was to see that US President George W. Bush experimented in something other than the usual experiments politicians get themselves into. While this just shows the lack of knowledge in the world regarding cricket (I should know), it was nice to see the Americans using the longtime favorite cricket expressions for – cricket: Bowled over, stumped, it's just not cricket etc.

Cricket probably suits President Bush very well – it's a sport for gentlemen combined with quite some banter, plus he loves baseball.

I have one question left unanswered – Inzaman, who the hell bowls President Bush a bouncer?!
