Have a good day as well. The fervor ever-present in sports is exhilarating. Every country has its popular sport with rules that evolve within its society. There are those that play the sport and those that enjoy watching the sport get played. Cricket, like soccer, is a sport embraced by multiple countries. I enjoy learning about the sport in the time to come.
Thank you @scholaris.sports :)
Yep, most people in India, follow Cricket and as you said, most like to play and there are even more like me who just enjoy watching it than playing it :)
I agree with you that Soccer is the number One sport in many countries, but Cricket is a game played in some countable countries and unlike Soccer, Cricket is a game played in 3 different formats as below:
T20 format: In this format, each side will play 20 overs and each over will have 6 balls to be bowled(I guess it's almost similar to Baseball). So, in total, 120 balls to be bowled and the match will be completed in approximately 3 hours.
One Day Cricket (ODI) format: This format will have 50 overs a side to be bowled and this format got it's name because, it takes almost one day's day time(now, this format is also being played in day-night format starting in afternoon) with match getting completed in almost 8 hours including breaks.
Test Cricket format: This is the format which will run for 5 days with each side playing twice with a stipulation of 90 overs to be bowled in a day and this is the First format which used to be played and now, ODI and T20 are the popular formats.
That's a brief info about formats of Cricket and each format has it's own charm and attraction and test cricket is considered to be the classic one :)
Happy to know about your interest to learn about Cricket sports.
Good day again to you :)
