The experience of Sea Witch, a yacht, in traversing the Suez Canal might give some context on this big brother version.

What context does your link provide?

I'm not being snarky; can you just make it explicit in your comment instead of leaving a vague comment linking to something that takes 15-20 minutes to read?

It’s a report on a cruiser yacht’s experience passing through the canal, which among other things concludes the level of baksheesh and Marlboros involved is excessive compared to elsewhere nearby.

Not really. Currently watching a good cricket game. Take it or leave it.

Is there a good resource that could make someone not knowing anything about cricket understand it to a level that watching a game would be enjoyable, without spending ages on learning what it is about?
