1. Appeal after every single ball that is bowled.
2. If wicket keeping, taunt the batsman but so no-one else can hear you.
3. If you are batting, tie your shoelace when they are just about to bowl it.
4. When bowling, run up then stop to re-bowl.
5. Pretend to faint in the middle of the pitch.
6. Start clapping louder and faster every time the bowler is running in.
7. Pretend to faint in the field.
8. Giggle to yourself and don’t tell anyone what you’re laughing at.
9. When fielding the ball do a weak throw back , having to re-field it.
10. Hum louder and louder till someone says something.
WARNING: If the person looks angry, stop as cricket bats DO hurt when hit with one.

Those things are just not cricket! Mind you, I can see the funny side of it, and when England plays Australia again I’ll be sure to let our team read-up on this article.
Nice to have you back.
Interesting article. I really enjoyed reading it.
Very interesting. Fun!
Been wondering where you were! I like #8 the best.
You left out sledging..:)
He he. I would do all of these. I’m a trouble maker.
Hi denus, long time, no hear. Just watch it when we play you next, we’re finding our form now! Great list.
If even one of these things happened during a cricket match it might actually make it interesting to watch!
Well, I do declare Alina. Go wash your mouth out with soap! lol
Lol! I can’t help it – my grandparents were avid cricket fans and used to take me to matches sometimes when I was a child. I had absolutely no idea what was happening and used to while away the day reading a good book, only looking up to join in the occasional smattering of light applause!
Heck… -you found a game even more boring & uninteresting than curling!
Your advice just might add some interest to the game!
Very good advice … I’ll definitely give some of these a try
very funny lol and true
Great article Denus I was wondering where you were
Haha very creative!
I have never played cricket but would love to learn looks like a little baseball game to me.
