I love cricket because of how different it is too football

Its much more a tactical game, the individual battles are much more obvious, but its also more relaxed in many ways.

Quite acceptable to applaud the opposition, and enjoy good examples of skill regardless of who they come from.
Except the Aussies of course.
Unless its Warne, or even Brett Lee when batting, always looks like he's down the local park with his mates when he's got the bat in his hands. Never stops smiling.
