How ridiculous would I be if I was to actively seek to play cricket? I'm Italian and nobody but Indians play it

How ridiculous would I be if I was to actively seek to play cricket? I'm Italian and nobody but Indians play it.

I obviously don't have half of an idea how the fuck you play it

You have two sides, one out in the field and one in. Each man that's in the side that's in goes out, and when he's out he comes in and the next man goes in until he's out. When they are all out, the side that's out comes in and the side thats been in goes out and tries to get those coming in, out. Sometimes you get men still in and not out.

When a man goes out to go in, the men who are out try to get him out, and when he is out he goes in and the next man in goes out and goes in. There are two men called umpires who stay all out all the time and they decide when the men who are in are out. When both sides have been in and all the men have been out, and both sides have been out twice after all the men have been in, including those who are not out, that is the end of the game

Just play and follow baseball instead. Then you’ll at least seem like a wannabe American and not some blowhard piece of shit with his wickets and Paki friends. Italian-Americans have been some of the finest ball players (athletes in general, really) for a century now. You would be continuing a proud ethnic heritage from across the pond.

You are a paedophile, you are a nonce, you're a perv, you're a slot badger, you're a two pin DIN plug, you're a bush dodger, you're a small bean regarder, you're a unabummer, you're a nut administrator, you're a bent ref, you're The Crazy World of Arthur Brown, you're a fence vole, you're a free willy, you're a chimney bottler, you're a bunty man, you're a shrub rocketeer.

Yeah nah

Forgot to mention that baseball is a thousand time more fun than stupid ass cricket

Where would you play it? Unless you move to another country you will struggle unless there's a decent Asian subcontinent population around you.

>wanting to be associated with Italian Americans in any way

lol no

it's not a game you can just pick up and play desu. all of the skills take quite a bit of training just to achieve basic competence.
for this reason it's not really suited to casual social play in the way that football or volleyball or baseball are unless you grew up playing it.

I happen to be lucky.
There is a cricket ground in my city. Or I could play street cricket.
Or beach cricket! Is it even a thing? Like beach soccer?

Been there Saturday and Sunday, it's locked. Perhaps for summer holidays?

T-this true senpai?
Is it ogre already for me?

>The game of cricket in Italy dates back to 1793 when Admiral Horatio Nelson organised the first-ever recorded game in Naples

Well try googling that club to find out when you should go down for nets or whatever.
But like says, you will probably just be able to make up the numbers and contribute as a fielder that bats number 11. Bowling is a strange action to learn and takes practice to be effective. Batting too really. You'll need someone willing to bowl at you a shit load just to get used to it.

>implying Italian- and Irish-Americans didn’t build the US into the modern country it is today, despite every bit of resistance from Protestants and WASPs still achieving far and beyond what any dreamed possible over time
All of this in spite of the sad caricature of Italian-Americans you choose to buy into and perpetuate
You’re clearly too much of a fag to play any sport. Give up

hey man give it a try, maybe you'll have fun with it. i love watching the sport but i personally found it pretty horrible to actually play.

Based European brethren
Seething yanks irrelevant sport btfo

Nah you can just play Sunday cricket to start off with which is mostly for fun and even mixed gender. You only need 1 friend to practice with too

>it's not a game you can just pick up and play desu.
Disagree with this, at least when it comes to entering cricket casually. Any one of my family members who doesn't follow cricket can join in a casual game of cricket easily. Stand there and field, or stand at the crease and be ready to defend the wicket using your bat against the ball. Go out when others tell you you have. Easy.

>btfo
How? Because you recruited yet another homosexual to your trash sport?

>ANYONE makes a thread

>How ridiculous would I be if I was to actively seek to play cricket?

Who cares if it would be ridiculous? Just Google if there is any way to join a cricket team in your City and go for it, sure it Will be a minority sport but if you are having fun fuck it, i did the same when i joined rugby, had Just finished my american football college elegibility and didnt felt like joining an old fag team full of uncle ricos that couldnt let go of their playing years, so i found out there was a rugby club here and went, like half the people here dont even know what rugby is but is still fun

I thought this buffoonic behaviour was a meme of Americans related to /int/

Are they all like this?

Yeah waiting in a field, so difficult.

Yes, it’s how we fuck several Italian chicks every time one of us visits your country. They find it refreshing, endearing really

>italians taking up cricket
unfathomably based
6 nations of cricket when?
