The trouble is in the UK attending 1st Class cricket of any sort can be a bit elitist!
That can mean zero atmosphere at many ODI games, with tennis clapping, strawberries and cream for lunch! Cricket for Marvin the Paranoid Android!
I appreciate some fans despise the Vuvuzela type activity, I'm probably in the same boat, but a bit of colour and noise go a long way to making a enjoyable ODI spectacle!
Inversely, I loved going to watch county cricket, picnic atmosphere, close up to the action and players even discussions with the boundary line fielders. Usually there is a pub or two or three across the way that everyone attends after the game!
