Hello Brian,

A British friend of the family, pressed for the rules of cricket, under 
duress finally admitted that there are none: The British, he confessed, just 
pretend that there are rules and always make sure that they sound terribly, 
terribly complicated so that everybody else thinks that the British are so 
much more intelligent than they are.

To that we replied: Well, if that is so, why does India keep winning?

Cheers,
Y, Scot
