England almost lost to Uruguay last night in a pre-World Cup friendly match. Losing to Uruguay would been like the time the Chicago Cubs lost to the Davenport, Iowa, Cubs.
By mid-afternoon Dubya, who in an interview in the Times of India last week had confessed to being a "cricket match person", had, I am told, been kicked off top spot on the bulletins. "It's a great pastime," he had said. Yeah, George. He probably thinks it's hoops, mallets, tea and crumpets. Want to swap for the day?
Calling cricket a 'pastime' in India is tantamount to an insult.
