This practice originated in the Byzantine Empire and later spread to the West.

LMFAO.

You prolly should look up the cricket term "No Ball" cuz directly above your slow response is the best joke ever (if you are an aussie). I am fully aware what a castrato is. I was just setting up the joke.

Also, Roman Catholics were compromised centuries ago... I know, about 20 centuries ago. Thanks for admitting it gumby.

Serious question as someone who’s seen maybe 10 seconds of cricket:

Do the pitchers have to move like effeminates or is it just a byproduct of Brits being absolutely clipped?
The run up to bowl is so routine to them, they have to land their feet in exact places along their run in otherwise they'll either overstep the line causing a "no ball" and giving the batting team a free point or understep and their intended "line and length" is off and the batter can punish him for it.

From that they just look funny as they run in [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

(similar to 110m hurdles if anyone watches athletics, its gotta be right!)

Too serious mate. And you are absolutely right though.

Its funny how 'mericans laugh at cricketers. Have they even seen a basball uniform? And they canny catch a ball without a babyball, im sorry baseball mit. How effeninate is that?

Anywho, Swish nailed it. Youd be the only one here capable of getting my "no ball" jape.

No ball castrato joke knocked the bails off the wicket, leaving them stumped!

The very good bowlers are said to be great with the ladies. Many a time they are known "bowl a maiden over".

Endless jokes here. Yanks just wont gettem.
