Following the recent announcement of Australia and Australia ‘A’ playing a warm-up match prior to this summers Ashes series, I’m having a look at the time two Australian cricket teams faced off in an official competition.
This is a mid-90’s story of cheeky player swaps, parochial supporters cheering against their own national team, and no one rating the Poms: all against the colourful backdrop of pyjama cricket
Cricket:
Cricket is one of the most popular sports Worldwide. Played predominantly in former British colonies, Cricket is a largely Summer sport that see’s elite matches being played in a varied climates, conditions and locales ranging from Karachi to Dublin, from Durban to Providence.
Involving two teams of XI playing against each other, Cricket has developed from humble beginnings since the 1600’s to be a serious world-wide sport involving Googlies and gullys, silly-mid ons and Irish swing, flippers and fine-legs.
In its simplest form involves a 22-yard pitch in the middle of an oval. At one end stands a 'batter,' who protects his/her 'wicket' while holding a bat. The batter protects their 'stumps' from the 'bowler' who sends down 'deliveries' or '[balls](http

I'm surprised it hasn't decade.
For context I'm a Refuse Driver (Garbage man) & today I was on food waste. After I'd tipped I was checking the wagon for any defects when I spotted a lone pea balanced on the lifts.
I said "hey look, an escaPEA"
No one near me but it didn't half make me laugh for a good hour or so!
Edit: I can't believe how much this has blown up. Thank you everyone I've had a blast reading through the replies 😂
It really does, I swear!

Dad jokes are supposed to be jokes you can tell a kid and they will understand it and find it funny.
This sub is mostly just NSFW puns now.
If it needs a NSFW tag it's not a dad joke. There should just be a NSFW puns subreddit for that.
Edit* I'm not replying any longer and turning off notifications but to all those that say "no one cares", there sure are a lot of you arguing about it. Maybe I'm wrong but you people don't need to be rude about it. If you really don't care, don't comment.
When I got home, they were still there.
What did 0 say to 8 ?

So What did 3 say to 8 ?
" Hey, you two stop making out "
I won't be doing that today!

This morning, my 4 year old daughter.
Daughter: I'm hungry
Me: nerves building, smile widening
Me: Hi hungry, I'm dad.
She had no idea what was going on but I finally did it.
Thank you all for listening.

Nothing, it just waved
I don't want to step on anybody's toes here, but the amount of non-dad jokes here in this subreddit really annoys me. First of all, dad jokes CAN be NSFW, it clearly says so in the sub rules. Secondly, it doesn't automatically make it a dad joke if it's from a conversation between you and your child. Most importantly, the jokes that your CHILDREN tell YOU are not dad jokes. The point of a dad joke is that it's so cheesy only a dad who's trying to be funny would make such a joke. That's it. They are stupid plays on words, lame puns and so on. There has to be a clever pun or wordplay for it to be considered a dad joke.
Again, to all the fellow dads, I apologise if I'm sounding too harsh. But I just needed to get it off my chest.

Me grabbing a soda from my (what I thought was) half full 12pk...
Notices there's only 2;
Me: "Awe man... This is a damn bird box!" Her: "What the hell does that mean?!" Me: (Pulls both cans out & shows them to her) "It's only got Toucans."
I'm not ashamed to admit the look on her face was glorious.
I was just sitting there doing nothing.
“BOOM”?!
"That's what they're fighting about."
