Downunder by Bill Bryson

This book by Bill Bryson talks about his travels and the people he meets. He is very comical in his outlook and description of local life.

Here is a listening clip from the book.

This talk is about the English game of cricket. Do you know anything about cricket ? Have you ever watched a game of cricket ?
