Fauxku Choo Choo (the play's the thing)

Note: all this falls within the rules of Fauxku Choo Choo. See rule 8, and the definition of "TINY" in rule 4.

ambrosial revelation said: For those unaware of the rules of cricket they are simply as follows - 
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 that's 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. Usually takes about 5 days and the result is usually a draw.

They have a sports segment which, among other things, reports on world cricket matches.
I've always been a bit confused by the reports; but thanks to your explanation, I think I've
finally been able to grasp the gist of the thing. Thanks.
