Well, the Canadians are in it too! You're not one of those foreign agents suggesting that there's a world outside of North America, are you?

Alright, there's a fair cop. Don't have an answer for that one. At least not one that makes sense.

Well, we can't really call it football, can we? That's bound to confuse folk. Would injury performance arts do? ;)

Now if you really want your head to go full scanners....

I'll bowl you a few googlies, a full yorker and a dibby-dobby just for fun and put you on a sticky wicket.

For those wondering what the heck I'm on about.

The rules of Cricket explained.

You have two sides, one out in the field and one in.

Each man that's in the side that's in goes out, and when he's out he comes in and the next man goes in until he's out.

When they are all out, the side that's out comes in and the side that's been in goes out and tries to get those coming in, out.

Sometimes you get men still in and not out.

When a man goes out to go in, the men who are out try to get him out, and when he is out he goes in and the next man in goes out and goes in.

There are two men called umpires who stay out all the time and they decide when the men who are in are out.

When both sides have been in and all the men have been out, and both sides have been out twice after all the men have been in, including those who are not out, that is the end of the game.

Simple really.

As a cricketer, I can assure people this is correct in its entirety, despite sounding more like a team version of the hokey cokey! ;)

I thought canada was just the cold part of the USA. Like mexico being the hot part, but in reverse.
