Thought for the day: I think the cricket ball is the most beautifully crafted item in all of sport. Internally, it is 2 halves of spherical cork that are then covered with 2 pieces of leather and sewn together.

Oh, and none of your Kookaburra shit nostr:nprofile1qqsw8fveyjfne8ul9hurgjg9t6ectrc5sr7ap30dh9wlpzlde5hxvfqpzpmhxue69uhkummnw3ezuem4wf6sz9thwden5te0v35hgar09ec82c30wfjkccteqy88wumn8ghj7mn0wvhxcmmv9uav570d😬😜.
As a spin bowler im fond of the Dukes County International Red Cricket Ball.
The stiching holds up real nice for extra turn off the pitch.
But it's bloody hard to get anything other than a kooka ball down here....

Oh wow. It's like the luxury version of a baseball. I love the stiching on it.
I like cricket 🏏 but dont think 🤔 most people in America even know what the sport is let alone how much skill goes into creating a 🏏 ball.
