Australia v Pakistan, first Test, Lord's, 1st day

Soaking up the history and rivalry

Rain can't dampen the spirit when there's some competitive cricket at Lord's

England v Bangladesh, third ODI, Edgbaston

Broad delight, and Bangladeshi bishops

Making it to the big screen and watching Strauss go nuts somewhat make up for not getting to watch Anderson bowl

Australia v Pakistan, second Twenty20, Edgbaston

Never mind the vuvuzelas

Pakistan and Australia bring their A game; the fans bring their noisemakers

Australia v Pakistan, 1st Twenty20, Edgbaston

Going, going, gone green

It's not as sophisticated as Lord's or thrilling as Karachi, but an under-renovation Edgbaston will do for this Pakistan fan looking for an Aussie defeat

England v Australia, 5th ODI, Lord's

Speed, sixes, and tennis reports

A full house at Lord's watches Tait undo England. Meanwhile, Bolly gives it back to the crowd, Swann entertains and Hopes nearly knocks the scorers' heads off

Sussex v Middlesex, Friends Provident t20, Hove

Ticket confusion, and super entertainment

This fan dared to support Middlesex at Hove. A good thing the rowdy young fans sledging the visiting side didn't get hold of her

England v New Zealand, 1st women's Twenty20, Chelmsford

Heigh-ho? Please no

Some good cricket, some highly annoying music, and an "ow" moment kept this England women's fan occupied at Chelmsford

England v Australia, third ODI, Old Trafford

Beating up the old enemy

Sunshine, a fine ground, a tight match with the right result - what's not to like?

India v Pakistan, Asia Cup, Dambulla

A face-off in Dambulla

This Indian fan gets interviewed on TV and tells everyone Pakistan are going to win, while secretly hoping for quite the opposite

Ireland v Australia, only ODI, Clontarf

They had a dream

The biggest day of the Irish cricket season arrives, and nearly becomes the most memorable one for its fans

England v Bangladesh, 2nd Test, Old Trafford, 2nd day

Swanny, Jimmy and Tuffers galore

Taking your son to his first Test is special. So much the better if there are a century and a five-for on offer

England v Bangladesh, 1st Test, Lord's, 3rd day

Joke blazers, and the height of difference

What do you do when rain interrupts play for most of the day? Read the newspaper like never before, take photos, and enjoy the MCC hospitality

England v Bangladesh, 1st Test, Lord's, 1st day

Don Quorneloni, and a question of pedigree

The first day of the English Test season? Time to drink Pimms, gorge on pork pies, and do Godfather impressions

England v Sri Lanka, World Twenty20, St Lucia

Pietersen and Piton for a good time

Plenty of food, booze, music and friends make this one-sided semi an enjoyable experience

West Indies v India, World Twenty20, Barbados

Short balls and a loud crowd

This Indian fan watches his team duck and weave into submission, learns the secret to a successful Mexican wave, and enjoys a good Caribbean party

Pakistan v New Zealand, World Twenty20, Barbados

There's nothing like cricket in the Caribbean

Steel bands, soca music, and a game that was decided off the last ball. Fun? You bet

West Indies v England, World Twenty20, Providence, Guyana

Scotch and tonic and plenty of advice

Lots of rain, lots of entertainment, lots of noise

Mumbai Indians v Royal Challengers Bangalore, IPL, Mumbai

Cheers, jeers, and expensive doughnuts

A crazy-loud crowd, a beautiful girl, and Tendulkar can make you forget the team you supported lost

Kolkata Knight Riders v Mumbai Indians, IPL, Kolkata

The Eden dance floor

Ganguly explodes, a cheerleader falls, and there's Bengali music to jive to. A pity Tendulkar didn't show up

Royal Challengers Bangalore v Mumbai Indians, IPL, Bangalore

Pollard's power and Kannada songs

The home team rolls over, and no Tendulkar show either. There's disappointment for you
