Cricket
Cricket is a bat-and-ball game played between two teams of 11 players on a field at the
centre of which is a rectangular 22-yard long pitch. Each team takes it in turn to bat,
attempting to score runs, while the other team fields. Each turn is known as an innings.
Cricket can be traced back to Tudor times in early 16th Century in England. However we
can find a form of cricket in the 14th century, with the sport called Creag. Its first name
was creckett. But it became a sport in the 17th century. It started in the south-east of
England. By the end of the 17th century cricket had become an
organised activity being played, and the first professionals appeared
in 1660. The game underwent major development in the 18 th century
and became the national sport of England.
In the middle of the 19th century it became well established in India,
North America, the Caribbean, South Africa, Australia and New
Zealand. In 1844 the first international cricket match took place
between the United States and Canada. In 1859, a team of England players went on the
first overseas tour to North America.
