Can somebody explain to me how cricket is played. I am really dumbfounded about this sport and I heard that players take a tea during the middle of play. Can somebody clarify

I have never gotten it. My husband loves it (he is not from the US, lol) but really it is too much for me. Check out this funny writeup about cricket, from Bill Bryson in his book "In a Sunburned Country" (my all time favorite travel book!) http://www.cs.du.edu/~leut/quotes.html scroll down to the bottom where the title is Quotes from Current Culture...
