Taylor Swift's Cricket Confusion on the Graham Norton Show
Taylor Swift, the famous singer, was on a talk show with former cricket player Kevin Pietersen.
They talked about cricket, a sport that Swift admits she doesn't fully understand.
She hilariously got some of the terms mixed up, like thinking they play 'chest matches' instead of 'test matches'.
Pietersen also talked about a scandal involving text messages he sent, which caused problems for another player, Andrew Strauss.
Swift found this all quite confusing, showing how different sports can be for people who aren't familiar with them.
Taylor Swift appeared on the Graham Norton Show with Kevin Pietersen.
Swift expressed her confusion about cricket, humorously misinterpreting terms.
Kevin Pietersen discussed the 'textgate' scandal, regretting its impact on Andrew Strauss.
The 'textgate' scandal involved Pietersen sending critical texts about Strauss before his 100th Test match.
