ince childhood, I was crazy about any outdoor sport. As I am
from India, I love to play cricket. But sad part is I can’t play it
here and I miss it a lot. Here in USA nobody knows how to play cricket. As I love this sport a lot, I had joined cricket academy in India. Cricket is a sport where every Indian played this sport in their entire life. No matter how old are people they treat cricket as a religion in India. Cricket was Invented by Britishers in 18th Century and has developed globally in 19th and 20th centuries. Cricket is a sport which played by two different team.
I chose Cricket as a passion, It has a lot more than I thought about any game. Cricket is one kind of outdoor game. It is played between two teams. It is played with a ball, a bat and wickets. It’s same like Baseball but played differently. The ball, the bat and the wickets are properly sized for this game. They are called cricket-ball, cricket-bat and cricket-wickets. Cricket is the national game of England. Its origin is traced back to 13th century. Cricket is very popular in England and its popularity has spread to other parts of the world. Now it is a game of international status and now matches-games of cricket are being played in international tournaments. Cricket is played between two teams. One is the bowling side and the other is the batting side. There are eleven players in each team. The players of the bowling side play in different positions such as: Bowler, Wicket keeper, first slip, second slip, point, gully, long-off, long-on, long off boundary, long-on boundary, third man boundary.
The players of the batting side come to play as: two openers, first down, second down, third down, fourth down, fifth down, sixth down, seventh down, eighth down, ninth down. also, there are two umpires, one stands just the back of the wicket of the bowling side and the other stands some yards away, left or right of the wicket of the batting side. Cricket is played in a round field. A cricket-wicket is made of three stumps and two bails. Two wickets are correctly fixed in the middle of the cricket-field. There is a pitch between these two wickets.
