Ashleigh Barty, French Open champion. What’s she doing on a cricket site?
A press conference ahead of a women’s tennis exhibition match in the United States is probably way down on the list of settings for a nuanced discussion on cricket. And yet when reigning French Open champion Ash Barty – not long ago a cricketer in Australia’s Big Bash League – addressed journalists in the company of American teen sensation Coco Gauff, that’s exactly what happened.Gauff’s casual remark asking Barty to explain cricket’s rules was followed by the Australian making a good fist at explaining a sport that’s often dismissed by its own followers as too tough to break down for the uninitiated.
It's sounds like the beginning of a joke.
Two players hold a news conference and start talking about.

So, how do you rate Barty’s explainer to Coco? And how would you explain cricket to a newbie? Let us know by tagging us on Twitter or mailing [email protected]
