How very (sub-)continental of you. The secret of Aldra's "half-Asian" origin is officially confirmed to be that he's "Asian" in the British sense (Indian).
Grass can easily get on the wickets as a result of the bat transferring grass from it to the wickets during the swinging of the bat...assuming there was grass on the bat.
Only niggas I've known who cared about cricket enough to understand what a wicket even is are brown dudes. Like black people with basketball/crack dealing and the hood, you either gotta get good at cricket or software development to make it out the subcontinent.

it's popular here for some reason
I'm convinced the only people who follow it are either accountants who get really into the statistics side of things or people who just want to go get drunk and eat pies
people say its a game for the upper class and to rip up the fields and grow crops there instead but it seems like a cool game to me and that the workers would enjoy playing it with common materials out in the grass behind the factories and then eat a sandwich
I used to play cricket and watch it too...live only though.
Cricket is one of those games where it's more fun to play than watch...although it's cool to chill out on a summers day with a cooler full of beer and your friends to bullshit with at a cricket match...the watching of the game is really secondary though to the atmosphere.
