The Ashes

England are likely to win the Ashes for the first time since 1987.

No I don't understand Cricket, and neither do most of my English friends - but we're going to celebrate tonight anyway.

There's a quite brilliant experiment on Radio 4 in which a Frenchman tries to explain the rules of cricket to an American. You can listen to it here (it starts 15 minutes in.)
