Interesting Facts And Records  About Cricket !!! - Page 2 Stacks_cricket_mcc

Cricket is a bat-and-ball game played between two teams of 11 players on an oval-shaped field, at the centre of which is a rectangular 22-yard long pitch. One team bats, trying to score as many runs as possible while the other team bowls and fields, trying to dismiss the batsmen and thus limit the runs scored by the batting team. Here are some interesting facts about this game

1. The game of cricket is the second most popular game in the world, second only to soccer. Cricket in its early days in England was considered a child's game, not to be played by serious adults.

2. The longest cricket match in history occurred in 1939 between England and South Africa. The match lasted for 14 days and finally ended in a tie.

3. Finally in the year 1788 the "Laws of Cricket" were born. The Laws were written by the Marylebone Cricket Club.

1935 Women's Test Match


Women’s cricket…


Although much is known about men’s cricket, information on the women’s game is less well publicised. Women started out as tea ladies serving at the cricket grounds and from this position began to play the game themselves.
It may then surprise you to learn that the Women’s World Cup was established before the men’s version of the competition
