A light-hearted piece about cricket (Tim Rice's favorite sport), with character names being cricket terms.

The Queen's son, Edward Windsor, was working for the Really Useful Group (Andrew Lloyd Webber's producing entity) and commissioned Lloyd Webber and Rice to write a piece to be performed as part of a pageant put on for the Queen's 60th birthday.
