Sri Lanka v England virtual first test



Remember when computers first came out, c1980, my mate has a Sinclair ZX Spectrum.
He had some bizarre cricket thing, whereby you put in names of 2 teams and then waited whilst it told you what happened ball by ball.
No graphics or owt fancy like that.
It just come on the TV screen something daft like 1,2,3, 4,6 and added to the score.
We thought it was incredible going back to my mate's house after a session and "playing cricket".
Still remember according to the teleprompter my mam clean bowling Viv Richards!

I guess computer games have moved on a bit since then....
