The game which was originally played in the UK has now became one of the most popular games in Asia. In countries like Pakistan, Sri Lanka, India, Bangladesh, this sport is played at school level. Kids started playing this game at age of 8 and became polished world class players at the age of 16 and onwards.
Number of cricket clubs has increased in all these countries where one can improve their cricketing skills and can perform better. When a country won a series or world cup it gives a lot of boost to the nation, they started thinking that if our team could beat rest of the teams by doing hard work than we could certainly complete our work by doing hard work.
This game is very exciting, one can never predict the end. People who have heart problems should not watch this game, as in the past certain cases were registered where people have heart strokes while watching an exciting match.
Many match fixing scandals have come up which is really heartbreaking for those fans who like to see a fair game. As this kind of news badly injure the nations pride. Strong actions should be taken to avoid any such activities in future.
Another problem which is present in this game is that senior players who are not in form are playing because they have good terms with the management. This really needs to stop, there are a lot of young players whom should be given a chance. Players should also be mentally fit because they have to handle a lot of stress, which could only be done if they have practised enough to handle it.
