It's a game that requires five days of uninterrupted good weather and it was invented in England. It was not made to be understood, only marvelled at.
That is perfect.
I just reread that recently. It's a good thing Sayers points out when a cricketer has done something wrong.

Just finished a reread of The Nine Tailors. Oh, my god, the bell ringing.
In the Google cricket game. I (that is, the cricket) turned into a duck. Like a rubber duck?
Did you reach a certain score? But I have to say, Lord Peter Wimsey never turned into a duck, so I'm not sure you're doing it right, -t.
Oh, I was fascinated by the bell ringing! I have no memory of cricket in Murder Must Advertise, though. It's been a long time since I read it, though.
Oh, I'm clearly not doing it right. I was bowled out at the first wicket when I turned into a duck. Or something like that.
Hey, guess how much interest I have in working on a Quarterly Business Review today!
Look, if we're all going to be held to Lord Peter Wimsey standards of doing it right, I just might as well give up.
Timelies all!
I realized that, while I am a fan of many things, I'm not in the Fandom of most of them. I like what I like.
