I walked into my study to check email.
Looked out the window and there are kids all over our front lawn – ‘fielding’. On the driveway across the street is a batsman and set of stumps. We are approximately ‘long on’.
I hear them running in and out of my garage to get their balls. I have tossed one back over the fence. They are about 3 metres from me and having a great time.
My first ‘basic instinct’ was to go out there and tell them to go play in their own yards. Why?…
Our street isn’t like that. The kids have one great long cricket pitch / football oval / basketball court. I think its meant to be more like this.
Might go field for a while and see if I can make it to bat!
