The Americans haven't adopted cricket so I miss the Ashes and internationals, only time we hear anything is if someone gets a cracked skull from a new demon bowler. Maybe it's just as well though because I left England when cricketers wore white and didn't need face masks and crash hats. Trueman was our demon bowler. Do the village matches still follow the old fashion of cricket?
Hope your husband gets out of hospital soon they are such depressing establishments in my experience.
