    @dabbuji1 So golf, not a hard sport to learn? the conclusion you draw is hard to backup with fact.
    FACT: the reason Cricket is not the #1 team sport worldwide ( it is #2 though) is due to the fact that the British commonwealth countries wouldn’t let anyone else into the elite levels to play until 1965.

    The physical form of that swing is the strangest form I’ve identified in any other sports.

    The main reson why cricket is not big in USA and many more countries is becasue it is one of the hardest sports to learn. You have to start at an early age to properly learn cricket. It may not be the most tiresome game as compared to soccer or basket ball, but you need a lot of skill and talent to play this sport.

    @ThisVideoAnnoyedMe
    You are mistaken my friend. If the ball hits the bat and THAN the catcher (wicket-keeper) catches it, than it is considered out. If the batter missed the ball, than there is no such thing as STRIKE 1 etc.

    So it’s basically one base baseball, but what the hell are the wickets even there for?! Batter could just be out if he swings and misses like in baseball with the catcher behind him getting the ball.

    @aussiefox Thanks for the good words about baseball. I think there are similarities between both games, and differences as well. Cricket looks like lots of fun, and I like the freedom in hitting.

    he did not say he preferred anything to anything. did not say “i think”. did not say “in my opinion”. so your point is null. now get off my back, you look like a fool.

    @BeefPapa what he said is his own opinion about a general subject. What you said is a targeted opinion against an individual. Now, if he said “I bet most people agree that baseball is the most boring sport in the world,” then you would have a right to disagree. That’s like yelling at someone for saying they prefer italian salad dressing over ranch. It’s not your choice what they think or prefer. How about YOU think about other people’s opinions before mindlessly assaulting someone’s opinions.

    he said baseball is the most boring sport in the world, and i’m the one thrashing? just because he doesn’t understand baseball doesn’t mean it’s the most boring sport in the world. that is not a fact and it’s far from wide acceptance. so it was a moronic thing to say. so i can bash it if i choose to. so you sir better think things over before sticking your nose in other people’s business.

    Mia

    @BeefPapa It’s not moronic at all. Just because somebody thinks one way does not make them a moron. I could say that, due to you judging Myiuth145, you are a moron for having your views. Quit bashing people. This isn’t your toilet. You can’t **** on everyone for no reason.

    @Myiuth145

    @nobulto17 You don’t want to accept the fact that I am right. How would you even know my age?
