Cricket is gay. Euro pricks say it takes more talent. Baseball players hit harder, throw harder, and have boundaries so we have to do everything with precision. cricket pitchers have to take a running start to throw anywhere close to what pro pitchers throw, and its not hard to spin a ball and make it break, especially if its bounced and has the ground to make it bite. 5th graders can do that. cricket is only more popular because it can be played with a 2x4 and a rock in 3rd world countries
Cricket players have to bowl with a straight arm, unlike baseball players. That is much harder to throw. Cricket players don't get 3 chances to hit a ball. And you try spinning a ball a metre or more when bowling 100 km/h, with a straight arm. Batters also have to judge how a ball will bounce. Cricket players don't need gloves to catch a ball even thought cricket balls are harder.
Also, don't come on a cricket video just to pay it out.
@Thag20 Cricket is such a better game then baseball -- hence why its much more popular on a global scale. Anyone can go play a game of baseball and pick it up straight away, cricket requires so much skill and concentration. Cricketers don't use gloves to field and baseball batters don't have to concentrate for up to 10 hours at the crease and there are many more ways to get out. Pitchers don't have to run in all day in the sun and bowl up to 20 overs in a day. You don't know anything
Hahahaha, in cricket players hit it harder and throw harder. Cricket you must stay concentrated in the middle for up to 8 hours for one innings, and no you don't get 3 strikes you get one and your back in the pavilion. Cricket you bowl with a straight arm which is much harder than simply throwing it, players have to be better in the field, faster, stronger and mentally tougher, where a baseball game goes for 4 hours a cricket test goes for 5 days............
My gosh, the baseball vs cricket arguement is so stupid, I'm Asian and American and I like both. UK cricket fans just act like pompous snobs and US baseball fans act ignorant. Their both sports, just enjoy them.

@0engima0 England are better at the moment. Australia were better then and for over 30 years prior to that. Stop making yourself look like a stupid dickhead by saying crap like that.
@0engima0 You are a complete and utter idiot. Are you that stupid that you can't come up with an intelligent response that you have to say something ridiculous like that. You are are sad, petty, pathetic person. You said England are still better in response to the game that the dickheads were annihilated in. You absoulte tool.
@85Aheadstix Swann is an excellent bowler, possibly the best spinner in world cricket at the moment. If your arse has more talent, I suggest you leave it to medical science so it can be examined.
@zingzangspillip1 Well i dont know, but certainly not a average casual spinner like Swann!, Our latest spinner Nathan lyon who on debut got 5/34 could be a good start though.
@85Aheadstix Nathan Lyon is certainly very talented. Let's hope he can do well in our summer on our pitches. He did very well in his first Test, but that was a very spin-friendly pitch. He'll be lucky to find a pitch like that again soon, given that the ICC gave the pitch a reprimand.
@zingzangspillip1 Hmmm well i dunno, the story behind him is quite amazing though, he was a grounds keeper at adelaide oval and they saw him do fiew bowls and decided to get him in i think.
@85Aheadstix Yes, he came to South Australia from the ACT in a bid to play state cricket. He couldn't get a game for one of the club sides, but was given a job as ground staff. Pretty amazing, but he still needs to prove that he's good enough. South Africa will be a good test.
to all americans! cricket is a bit like baseball but with more hitting freedom and more frequent runs it's fast paced but it can be incredibly slow paced (just like baseball) if you ever come down to australia in the summer go check a game out and if you want straight up non stop action watch a 20/20 game
I understand how you feel nanothequex. I didn't care about cricket until my mom said she wanted to see the cricket world cup. So I put it online for her and I started watching. she told me the rules and everything, and I was addictid into cricket. Man I hate the fact that I was born into the U.S.
@vai570 Same with me. I didn't use to like cricket but after the world cup, i'm crazy about it! I'm lucky i'm an indian and you must be knowing that a majority, almost all indians are cricket fans and i can play cricket here everyday! I feel sad for you.Good luck finding a nice spot to play.
@MyChris202 No it doesn't rock....It sucks...just like your mom when she was givin me a blowjob for 20 bucks...why dont all of you cricket people just go and start lickin eachothers penises....bye...
This game isn't popular in the US because Americans consider themselves distinctly non-European and this game is definately European. Goes back to our early roots. I would like to learn how the hell this game is played though. iT looks interesting.
@enriqueee121 Sorry to be anal, but, erm, it come at that speed in cricket. And its not all about power and speed. Theres something that americans know nothing about; its called intricacy...
@etonchavs sorry to be anal too, but not all off baseballs pitching is about power and speed. Yes, there are fastballs (4 seam, 2 seam, cutter) but there are also all the breaking pitches (curveball, slider, sinker, screwball, knuckleball, palmball, change-up) There is a huge difference between trying to hit a 94mph fastball and a 76mph curveball that breaks several feet. i love baseball, but i have watched cricket and would enjoy to watch more. it is hard to find out here in california though.
@enriqueee121 Pfft!, cricket balls are bowled faster than that!, the fastest bowler ever was Australias own Jeff "Thommo" Thompson, he bowled at over 160 Kmp, thats like 120 mph!, no base ball pitcher can bowl that fast!, not even roid head drug cheat Rodriguez!, infact you guys imported an ex aussie fast bowler with an average delivery of 99 mph for one of your baseball leagues.
Your comment is ridiculous mate. In baseball the pitcher doesn't have a running start, he just stands there, winds up, then pitches the ball. In cricket the bowler has a running start, then bowls the ball at the ground. The speed of the baseball is recored just feet in front of the plate, the speed of a cricket ball is registered before it hits the ground. Of course a cricket ball is going to be faster. Running start+earlier speed radar+heavier ball=more speed. Simple Science.
My gosh, the baseball vs cricket arguement is so stupid, I'm Asian and American and I like both. UK cricket fans just act like pompous snobs and US baseball fans act ignorant. Their both sports, just enjoy them.

as a Thoroughbred englishman, i have to say, cricket is the shittest game ever, fuck knows how i got here. i'm off to sip tea and eat crumpets while mining for coal. good day.
@0121zero Naw, a majority of people probably never heard or seen cricket on sports channels, its mainly about baseball, basketball, and football. I'd be pretty cool to see the 20/20's live.
@nanothequex I think New Zealand are touring the US again soon? I think they're playing a couple 20/20s in Florida.... Im lucky i live in England, i watch county 20/20 alot live.... When its not raining lol
@nanothequex Dont worry , u will B there in around 20 years , though u wont be one of the stronger teams ( eg , rankwise : Australia , India , Sri Lanka , South Africa , England , Pakistan , New Zealand & The west Indies )
@nanothequex I'm Indian, and I set up a league type thing at my high school. All of my friends born in the US play as well. They've actually gotten good!
@nanothequex ... if you just wanna learn cricket, there is cricket team in every state in U.S u go to.. the city area i live in now, we got about 5 teams arnd it. and many throughout the whole state. its good to try cricket out.
@longbendy81 Hahaha, your just jealous, and so what!?, the only reason you guys won so easily is because our best players retired!, but we have a new spinner, one who took 5/34 on debut, hes gonna kick swanns average arse.
We have a game here in the UK that is the same as baseball. Its called Rounders and it is played by girls that are still in school. So i think that is enough said about baseball.
Play LIVE ! Play FREE ! /watch?v=SKteGpQwaHI and /watch?v=eeNuYtwU0YA The game allows players to perform exaggerated, gravity-defying action moves, including wall running, stunning, tumbling, and blocking bullets with swords, in the style of action movies and anime. ! It has over 1 million registered users ! Over 10 different game modes, from fighting with and or against other players to fighting against monster ! website is gunz.ijji.com
God, hahaha. i can understand why people should fight over these things. haha. and some would say some sport is better then the other. darn. anyways, wish i could play this sport in my country. looks kinda interesting and maybe i might find it fun. i find baseball fun but i play softball. im starting to like these bat and ball sports. the only sport i really know how to play is football (soccer).
@ShadowNeonKid no i'm not trying to justify it in that way. what i'm saying is, in australia's case, they had so many good players they were dominant. u take out one player, another new guy comes in and has experience as if he's played at that level before. but if u see what's happening now, most of them have retired, and aus aren't finding their rhythm. that's not saying they're an ordinary team, any team can beat any other team when it is their day.
@50RpJ obviously...take tendulkar and sehwag away from india and they are ordinary, take cook, peiterson and anderson away from england and they are ordinary, take murali and sangakarra away from sri lanka and they are ordinary. Australia had 5 or 6 players like this and that made them extrordinary.
@50RpJ . Thats the dumbest thing Ive ever heard. Basically what you're saying is, if you take all the good players away from a team they arent as good as they were before. No shit, you are a dickhead
Maybe you should have a look at the people behind them? Stuart Magill, Jason Gillespie, Darren Lehman, Andrew Symonds, not to mention all the guys like Martin Love, Phil Jaques, Brad Hodge that couldn't even get a game. A full strength 2nd XI in 2006 would have looked like Phil Jaques Michael Divenuto Brad Hodge Martin Love Simon Katich Darren Lehmann Brad Haddin Andy Bichel Stuart Macgill Jason Gillespie Michael Kasprowicz That team would have rolled England in 2006-7 and 10-11.
Best cricket game ever? Obviously not old enough to remember Headingley 1981(Botham and Willis), or you've chosen to forget the 2 run England victory at Edgbaston 2005. They were GREAT matches which could have gone either way until the last ball!
How good was the Aussie team then, Warne, McGrath, Glichrist, Hayden, Lee all firing. Some great summer times spent watching Warnie bowl. A true legend, but that team was just unreal
@ReggieRhoden how am i pussy? Also sorry, im not stupid enough to waste my money and time watching a 3 hour nfl broadcast for only 12 minutes of actual game tim. But i can understand how a dumbass like you can fall for flashy nfl marketing ploys.
@ReggieRhoden mate take off the pads and watch rugby pussy. btw truth is, Baseball is sissy version of cricket. I know baseball bro and all those innings is just plain bullshit. In cricket we dont play that bullshit we have one inning and we make the MOST of it.
@UgaBugaWoga Ya, well I hate both baseball AND cricket so suck my dick. And who cares if they wear pads in football? HAVE YOU SEEN THESE FUCKERS!? You got a 5'10 200lb. guy running like a fuckin gazelle and smashing into a 6'8 420 lbs. block of pure muscle. and these guys use their pads mostly as weapons rather than personal protection. Rugby is a bunch of middle sized guys throwing each other around fighting over a ball. Football takes a lot more strength and skill.
@ReggieRhoden nope, there is on average 70 plays in an nfl game. On average they are 10 seconds each. Due to the fact nfl players can't handle attacking and defending at the same time that is 6 minutes per game.
@nabilion Well its still better than cricket... which aint saying much. And there are about 60 plays in a single quarter. fucking troll, get yor facts straight. 70 plays in a GAME!?.. such bullshit nonsense
@ReggieRhoden nope, google ''average nfl playing time, wall street journal''. Click the wsj article result and you will see the playing time. if you say they are a possible 280 plays in a game. That means that on average each play is only 2 seconds. Doesn't really make sense?
@ReggieRhoden mate you lost cricket smashes NFL which is a sport for such pussies that they need protective equipment that can withstand a car crash. Look at rugby league and rugby union. I think you american pussies should learn from those sports
@TheNertsae Maybe you should actually PLAY football before opening your fat mouth. We played cricket during our P.E. hour. Its no fun. just lots of rules and regulations with no fun. Its even worse to watch. Id rather watch golf or pool, or rugby.
@ReggieRhoden haha can't wait to play a stupid pussy american sport and put my body weight of padding on so I can watch someone throw a ball or get head butted. And if you play cricket for 1 hour and learn everything n that hour it wont be much fun because there are lots of different rules. Maybe you should actually play cricket properly before opening your "fat mouth". Btw i have played NFL and in my opinion it is a poor excuse for a sport. I would much rather play any other sport in the world.
@TheNertsae The field we play one is nothing but packed dirt and a few uprises of grass, complete with rocks and gravel all over it. The pads you wear in the NFL are so you can hit harder without injuring yourself or others, its SMART. And someone gets hurt almost every football game. We wear no pads around our ribs and a friend of mine took a sprinting helmet straight to the gut and broke six of his ribs and his lung almost collapsed. You aint seen shit until you've seen real grit football.
@ReggieRhoden i think american football requires great strength and skill, however, the idea that a player can fulfil their position's requirements and contribute to the team, without even touching the ball during the game, is quite bizzare
@sec24 what? your an idiot. If Cricket is so great than how come football is more famous, has more viewers, more players, and is all around more loved than any other sport when they only play 6 minutes per game. I think thats rips the game of a cricket a new "arsehole".
@ReggieRhoden hahahahha you just proved what an ignorant american you truely are with that statement... way to live up to every stereotype about americans
just cause american football is popular in the states doesnt mean it is everywhere else, cricket would actually be the worlds second biggest sport in the world after soccer... and american football, way way down the list
@ReggieRhoden yet cricket is the 2nd most popular sport in the world. You see money made from cricket is used to buy land make new cricket grounds, clubs coaching facilities and overall infrastructure. American football, has no place to spend the money except within america. Hence why nfl players get paid so much and Universities have 100,000 seat stadiums. The amount of assets cricket has over the world is light years ahead of the NFL.
@LightPrecursor63 Because I wanted to see what all the fuss was about. My Australian friend always talks cricket on facebook and I want to learn what he is saying.
@85Aheadstix Popularity does not equal greatness. It is not surprising that an English sport will be more popular than an American one due to British imperialism.
Baseball didn't come from cricket. It came from townball.
Saying that baseball doesn't require skill and that it isn't a real sport just shows everybody that you are 1)ignorant about baseball, 2)prejudiced against America, or 3)insecure and make yourself feel better by insulting others
@85Aheadstix Bringing up football is a rather obvious attempt to deflect attention away from the topic. I am an American but I am not a football fan. I am a baseball fan. It is my favorite sport but I do not tell people that my sport is better than theirs.
@TKDLION Are you kidding?, thats all you yanks do!, all i heard was how good the superbowl is and thats its wastched by the most people on earth!, but thats bullshit!, more people watched the world cup!, Hence the "world" bit, but you yanks think you are the world!.
Hell the deconf most watched show was Top Gear UK.
Have fun playing cricket in the next Olympics as its replacing baseball, you'll need it.
@85Aheadstix First of all, yank is outdated and you are not using it correctly either. A Yankee is someone from one of the northen colonies (New England especially.) And the terms 250 years old. Can't the British come up with something fresher. If you are going to insult someone at least do it with some style.
anyone else think it is interesting that in the first innings both teams got over 500 and in the 2nd neither made 200?

u cant just say, they had good players so they didnt deserve to win
ShadowNeonKid 1 year ago
@ShadowNeonKid no i'm not trying to justify it in that way. what i'm saying is, in australia's case, they had so many good players they were dominant. u take out one player, another new guy comes in and has experience as if he's played at that level before. but if u see what's happening now, most of them have retired, and aus aren't finding their rhythm. that's not saying they're an ordinary team, any team can beat any other team when it is their day.
50RpJ 1 year ago
@50RpJ obviously...take tendulkar and sehwag away from india and they are ordinary, take cook, peiterson and anderson away from england and they are ordinary, take murali and sangakarra away from sri lanka and they are ordinary. Australia had 5 or 6 players like this and that made them extrordinary.

@UgaBugaWoga Ya, well I hate both baseball AND cricket so suck my dick. And who cares if they wear pads in football? HAVE YOU SEEN THESE FUCKERS!? You got a 5'10 200lb. guy running like a fuckin gazelle and smashing into a 6'8 420 lbs. block of pure muscle. and these guys use their pads mostly as weapons rather than personal protection. Rugby is a bunch of middle sized guys throwing each other around fighting over a ball. Football takes a lot more strength and skill.

ReggieRhoden 1 year ago
@ReggieRhoden nope, there is on average 70 plays in an nfl game. On average they are 10 seconds each. Due to the fact nfl players can't handle attacking and defending at the same time that is 6 minutes per game.
nabilion 1 year ago
@nabilion Well its still better than cricket... which aint saying much. And there are about 60 plays in a single quarter. fucking troll, get yor facts straight. 70 plays in a GAME!?.. such bullshit nonsense
ReggieRhoden 1 year ago
@ReggieRhoden nope, google ''average nfl playing time, wall street journal''. Click the wsj article result and you will see the playing time. if you say they are a possible 280 plays in a game. That means that on average each play is only 2 seconds. Doesn't really make sense?

TheNertsae 1 year ago
@TheNertsae Maybe you should actually PLAY football before opening your fat mouth. We played cricket during our P.E. hour. Its no fun. just lots of rules and regulations with no fun. Its even worse to watch. Id rather watch golf or pool, or rugby.
ReggieRhoden 1 year ago
@ReggieRhoden haha can't wait to play a stupid pussy american sport and put my body weight of padding on so I can watch someone throw a ball or get head butted. And if you play cricket for 1 hour and learn everything n that hour it wont be much fun because there are lots of different rules. Maybe you should actually play cricket properly before opening your "fat mouth". Btw i have played NFL and in my opinion it is a poor excuse for a sport. I would much rather play any other sport in the world.
TheNertsae 1 year ago
@TheNertsae The field we play one is nothing but packed dirt and a few uprises of grass, complete with rocks and gravel all over it. The pads you wear in the NFL are so you can hit harder without injuring yourself or others, its SMART. And someone gets hurt almost every football game. We wear no pads around our ribs and a friend of mine took a sprinting helmet straight to the gut and broke six of his ribs and his lung almost collapsed. You aint seen shit until you've seen real grit football.
ReggieRhoden 1 year ago
@ReggieRhoden i think american football requires great strength and skill, however, the idea that a player can fulfil their position's requirements and contribute to the team, without even touching the ball during the game, is quite bizzare

@ReggieRhoden yet cricket is the 2nd most popular sport in the world. You see money made from cricket is used to buy land make new cricket grounds, clubs coaching facilities and overall infrastructure. American football, has no place to spend the money except within america. Hence why nfl players get paid so much and Universities have 100,000 seat stadiums. The amount of assets cricket has over the world is light years ahead of the NFL.

So deal with it!. Americans just changed cricket because cricket requires skill and baseball is just an over rated half time show.
Just like their "football".
85Aheadstix 2 months ago
@85Aheadstix Popularity does not equal greatness. It is not surprising that an English sport will be more popular than an American one due to British imperialism.
Baseball didn't come from cricket. It came from townball.
Saying that baseball doesn't require skill and that it isn't a real sport just shows everybody that you are 1)ignorant about baseball, 2)prejudiced against America, or 3)insecure and make yourself feel better by insulting others
