Cricket Reaches A Plateau (Literally)

Everest Or Bust

A group of cricketers is heading to Mount Everest to play a record-breaking high altitude match on 21st April. The teams will play on an artificial pitch when they reach the Gorak Shep plateau in Nepal. They hope to raise £250,000 and the match will be broadcast live to an audience watching at Lord's.

FOOTNOTE: Another Lord’s prayer.

Verse And Worse

Random Wit, Errant Rhyme. Not A Literary Crime

Such a gentle pursuit is the game of cricket
You bowl the ball but never kick it
If you get a googly and just can’t pick it
Coarse mid-wicket will tell ya where to stick it
