So different people go in for sport for different purposes but sport unites people all over the world. There is a category of people that like not to play football or basketball or any other kind of game but watch it on a big screen. Many people support their favourite sport team and watch all games of their favorite team. But let’s take a look at Cricket more apart from baseball and basketball. And checkout its history, rules and so one.
Knowing the History of Cricket
Previously
cricket games are as similar to the new one there is a bit little different. So, in cricket there are eleven numbers of players in each team. The main goal and the winner is announced only when opponent team score more. How to score? There is a person who throws a ball and person who should bit it with a special bat for cricket. It’s the main action of the game.
The team whose player throws a ball has 11 players on the ground while team who tries to bit the ball back has only two people who are named as batsmen. So the general way of scoring is to throw ball so that batsman can’t hit it or to break a wicket that is behind a batsman. It should be said that rules are puzzled and it’s not so easy to understand the game.
This question is quite uncertain because some centuries ago there existed games very similar to cricket however that might be other games. However it is known that Englishmen were first people who played this game.
At the first time the cricket was mentioned in 1598. In 17th century the game became widely spread at the south-east of England and in 18th century the game became a national sport in England. Of course, during the centuries it was developing and changing.
Present Situation
Nowadays cricket as a sport is played in many countries and like in other kinds of sport in cricket there exists a Cricket World Cup and also organization named International Cricket Council controls all rules and innovations in this game.
In general cricket matches can have different duration from one day to three days.
Cricket World Cup is a championship where one day cricket matches are played.
In 1912 and there were 6 countries which participated. So first three countries of course were present at the championship and also other three countries joined them. These countries were India, West Indies and Pakistan as a test playing nations. Africa and Sri Lanka joined this Championship too but not as a test playing countries. That championship had a great success and that’s why it was hold again four years later in another country.
Firstly the championship or the first world cup was held in 1975 and the England there was hold an International World Cup. and since that it has been holding for every four years. Every year country that hosts championship is different. The last cricket matches were held in New Zealand and Australia in 2015.
However it’s not as popular as football. But maybe it will develop and in future all people will play cricket in their yards. Because really this is a kind of game everybody can play the only difficulty is in understanding the principles of the game and rules.
