...now what Jim didn't mention was during this dream (the dream where England ruled the cricket world), Jim was wearing an Indian national cricket uniform, a tutu, swimfins and a snorkel, whilst eating a large curry. Meanwhile, Steed and Mugabe were riding a pink unicorn, taunting Jim's cricket outfit.

Okay, since nobody but the English intelligenzia understands the rules of cricket and the tamtam all around it, for us unworthy outsiders: what does 4-0 mean now? Has England won or lost? And when will the bodies be burned this time?

England took over half of the world to spread this weird sports. When those countries finally, after countless decades, managed to understand the rules, they were given independence.
Today, cricket is played in a global tournament which consists of England and India. The winner is declared world champion.
