I wasn’t even going to watch it. I was happily cooking dinner watching an old baseball game when I decided to catch up on the score of the England v West Indies Test. Last time I checked, they had lost 2 early wickets, but it looked like the game would peter out to a draw.
Funny old game, and all that …
It got me thinking about how incredibly hard it is to replicate something like this in a cricket board game. I seem to recall in one game of International Cricket I once played, England were out for around 100 or so, so I would guess that with the right roll of the dice.
As I continue to plough forward with my cricket board game folly, it does reinforce and idea I have around a team becoming dominant, and what would be needed to ensure that that escalates or not in a real kind of way.
That thought should keep me busy for another 3 or 4 years at least :-)
