Ah, not test cricket.
Get to sit 2-3 days and get pissed in the sun with your mates mates, my Mrs will normally come for one day on the ale.

I can watch the final part of a test match, when they need 150 runs from 30 overs or something. But 5 ****ing days of it? Not for me.
Test cricket is about sunshine and an all day bar isn’t it?
Darts is sound when you get into it, better now that massive dog nonce Taylor has retired like.
Yeah this is what I mean bro. 20/20 cricket is good, because you know they've got a limited amount of time and overs to rack up some runs.
Any game that takes 5 days to finish can ****ing do one though.
Spend 4 and half days watching a match and then it rains so they call it a draw. Brilliant.
Like snooker but can't watch it, like football can't play it anymore. cricket no, golf no, tennis no. Rugby no.
Darts... just no

Must admit I've been tempted to go to the rose bowl recently just to sit in the sun and drink beer.
Do you not have the stamina for 4-5 pints a session and a swift couple of ciders at lunch. India, Pakistan or Australia and the grounds are banging. Trent. Bridge is great, then Leeds and old Trafford. Stick lords and oval.
Just find a nice beer garden and watch some Totty instead.
It’s on my list, it’s almost Portsmouth so have family can use as visit excuse.
Test cricket is a thinking man's game. It's the sporting equivalent of Shakespeare, in a world largely geared to Geordie Shore and Towie; so ironically, given it's sometimes soporific rhythms, it doesn't appeal to the slow witted.
I can't drink 5 days in a row. Not a good idea for me.
Seen plenty of Test matches and if you've grown up on it, it's as interesting on Day 1 as it is on Day 5 especially because it all matters to the end result.
Some excellent matches I can recall, some good, some poor but like any team sport depends who you're watching.

Cricket is an all day session. Starting at opening at the nearest spoons. That’s what makes Trent bridge a great ground, the boozer just outside is a spoons.
