RULES

  1. This is a kid's show, keep it PG. No ifs or buts.
  2. Keep it Bluey focused, meta discussions will be considered.
  3. No discussion of piracy or unofficial means of watching the show. The internet is vast, I'm sure you can figure it out without our help, fair dinkum.
  4. No politics — again, this is a kids show. No need for 'em, mate.
  5. Follow the site-wide rules and code of conduct.

Great episode, though I feel like it's a little on the nose. That said this episode did enough for the sport of cricket that I think they'll make rusty the official mascot.

I'm more of a baseball fan with a very basic understanding of cricket rules. From my point of view, I did get the references as a pitcher/bowler to induce the general direction in which you want the hitter/batsman to hit the ball (preferrably to an area with fielders), use the ground/ballpark quirks to your advantage and the skill needed to hit a ball to a specific fielder. That last hit for Dusty was just enough for her to catch it without being too easy.
