No one cares or knows anything about Cricket. It's a sport for pussies and twinks. I would bet :10bux: that none of you even know the rules. Which makes Cricket the perfect game for goons to add their own commentary. Make it up as you go along. Add anything you like. Sound effects, music, player voices. It's all up to you. You get to work with a blank slate to perform your comedy magic. So to do this I took some footage of a Cricket match and removed the sound. I then recreated the audio of a Cricket game minus the commentators. Here is what it sounds like.

Take this blank slate version of the Cricket game and do with it what you will. You can download the video file HERE

Cricket is a gentleman's game and a real mans sport.

Baseball is called rounders here and its basically played by girls in school.

Hit it this way it's like 4 points. Hit it over the ankle fence and it's like 6 points. Wear huge shin pads because you're a giant bitch that is scared of a ball.

Seems like there are a good number of heart attacks in cricket.

Cricket balls are like rocks, and people are hurling them at up to 100mph. That dude died because his artery ripped open. :gibs:

Struck on the head. Hence tremendous lower-body padding. LOL @ Krkt

Imagine if in baseball when a player gets hit in the head he was told to man up, as opposed to being allowed to walk to first base so the nasty man can't throw things at him anymore. As a result it would be a legitimate tactic to deliberately throw the ball at the batter's head to physically intimidate him right? This is how cricket is actually played.

A batsman got killed recently after he got hit on the head. You'd wear pads too if someone was hurling a ball at 90mph at you with no small designated zone.

One wears a helmet. You can be hit anywhere!

Umm there was a bit of misinformation in that video. Virat Kohli didn't start playing cricket at 22, he was playing in youth leagues etc. and has never been in a movie.
