TBH, the use of technology in Cricket for umpiring has done a lot of good to the game than any bad. I personally have no objection to Hawk-Eye or other computerised umpiring. MLB should implement it asap.

I've never watched a full game of Cricket. Any tips for a newcomer watching?

Listen to the commentry, you'll enjoy it. Cricket is the most unpredictable game and this is what makes it super fun.

You can also participate in Cricket pool to give you a kickstart with your understanding about the game.

I am all for it. A bad umpires call potentially cost the Blue Jays a chance to go to the World Series in 2015. I am still bitter about it.

Let's get MLB closer to Cricket. In a cricket match a team gets two challenges which it can ask for the decision they think isn't correct. If the challenge is correct, two chances remain. If the challenge is false, 1 challenge is lost.
