Some sports are very popular worldwide,some sports are very popular in some particular country and some are famous in a small regions. Actually I love watching sporting events in tv and going to a stadium. There are two types of games such as Indoor games and outdoot games. Badminton, Football,Cricket,Moto racing , Athletics,Diving and chess are my favorite sports but I like Cricket the most among all the games as most of the Indians do. Cricket is a outdoor game consists of 11 players in each team and is played on a oval shaped playing ground. This is not as much popular as Football or Athletics around the world but it is rapidly gaining popularity in South Asia and South - East Asia day by day. Australia, England,South Africa,West Indies, Zimbabwe, Afghanistan, Bangladesh, Pakistan ,Sri Lanka and India are very common cricket playing nations for the cricket lovers around the world. The popularity of cricket is increasing in middle east ,europe and American country. Cricket actually originated in England and it was imported to the countries where they colonised before first World War and India was no exception. It is very excited game and the uncertainty of this game makes it more interesting, wonderful and competitive. There are three formats of this game such as : Test cricket : This cricket match is played for 5 days and 2 innings are allotted for each team. ODI Match : This cricket match is completed in one day that's why it is called one day international. Each team has to play 50 overs then winner is decided in this format . T20 match : This is the latest format to be introduced in cricket and in this match every team has got the chance to score as much as possible in 20 overs to win. It takes around 3.5 - 4 hours to complete this match. Cricket is a team game which learns team- spirit in ground as well as leadership skill, friendship, co-operation, competition mentality, sacrifice, discipline,taking responsibility, respect opponents,obeying rules and confidence. Cricket is very intense game and tight schedule in National level makes this game more physically challenge and skills. But in this fun and excitement, sometimes many unwanted and unfortunate incidents occur during the game. There are two types of World Cups organized by ICC such as Cricket World Cup and T20 World Cup in every 4 and 2 years respectively. There will be Cricket World cup in this May-June 2019 and I hope Cricket lovers like me are eagerly waiting for this tournament. Apart from the World Cup and various ICC tournament,there are always international tours between cricket playing nations through out the year. I love this game from my heart and I always eagerly wait for watching Indian National Cricket team playing and demolishing opponents ruthlessly on field. Virat Kohli is living legend and he is my favorite batsmen. It is also said that Cricket is gentleman's game and it is going to be one of the most popular games in the world soon..... Thanks @skymet
