Of course it does Brian.Ordinarily as someone who regards Cricket as our No 1 Sport....I would be riveted to the screens and delighted at any England progress...but there is so much sh*t going on with Cost of Living...potential War...threat of Covid getting automatic promotion back to big league status, and other demics lurking...that I really can't take the current Tests that seriously..it really doesn't matter who wins!

They're so predictable now, getting a bit boring..
There's always something that matters more more than sport. That doesn't make sport any less important. It was a massive morale booster for many during the pandemic. And look how much Ukraine's sporting victories mean to them right now. Sport is a healer and a great bridge builder too.
Sport is not really very important is it....it's just a distraction from essential Work...you can enjoy it when in a frame of mind to do so.
This is weird and typical Forum clique reaction without proper analytical interpreting !
...I have at No Time said I 'didn't like sport'...I merely said ' it's not important...when considering some other things going on ...words to that effect.
It’s amazing what a change of mindset and attitude can achieve - Ben Stokes kept mentioning the change to a positive , more jovial attitude both in the dressing room and on the pitch , going after teams rather than the timid containment and fear of failure style that went before ….Written off yesterday, seems like we've now got a team of fighters. Well done England!

Yay, I had "Forum", "clique" and "random capital letters" on my Brian Bingo card
