Cricket and no, this is not the bug
In Africa, cricket is a sport... as well as a bug. Similarly to baseball, cricket is a bat and ball game. Each team has 11 players, and there are two teams. The goal of the game is to get the most runs. This sport is basically the same game as American baseball. The biggest difference is that some games can last 3 or 4 days. You may be thinking "Well there are baseball tournaments" but you're wrong. This game is just straight days of playing only 4 innings. YES! Only 4! This kind of tournament leads to bigger games and soon the Cricket World Cup. So, will you go home today and play some Cricket?

I agree that cricket is just like American baseball. It's crazy how one game can last three to four days. I wonder how much time in that day do they spend that day. Also why does Cricket take so much longer that American Baseball. I have never thought about playing Cricket because I didn't really know how to play now that I know what it is I might actually try to play it. But of course I wouldn't have the patience to play for three to four games for only one game!
ReplyDeleteThat's really crazy to think that a cricket game can last that long. I wonder why if there really isn't a big difference, but it could last that long? Good job.
