140 BIRTHDAY OF CRICKET

Cricket : It is a sport played all around the world . The second most playing game in the world . But cricket is never included in the olympics so far . Because this game took more days to complete whole tournament . Cricket is an dangerous game ever i seen , sometimes cricketers atacked by ball heading towards them and face to death


Nick name : Gentleman game


Eventhough cricket was a dangerous game , for longer period of time cricket   is considred as an "lazy sport" .  Because most of the time players are inactive and stand at constant place due to the way the game played . Today cricket is entering its 140 birthday . Google also designed their homepage in a way to wish cricket's birthday
