No - I am saying me, Richard Dickinson, who watches every cricket match he can possibly get his eyes on, with great attention-to-detail, taking in every moment judiciously and recording it both in his mind and in personal match-reports where he feels like it, often recording footage where he can get highlights, sometimes just setting a tape to record a whole one-day match or Test-match day when he gets a feeling that the match is going to be a good-'un, and watches that whenever he is bored (common, when at work or not getting drunk with friends, either out or in), and who finds professionally-produced videos of famous games, or montages, and watches them time and again when eating.
I am saying he, and people similar to him, are every bit as likely to be able to analyse live cricket with punch as someone who happens to have been a reasonably good player and has been lucky enough to get himself into the TV or radio com-box or a job with The Express.
