For cricket, world cup too can help. My dad taught us some basics of cricket from the 2003 world cup

Yeah world cups come with the big hype - Cricket World Cup currently underway in India (remember to support πŸ‡ΏπŸ‡¦πŸ˜‚).

They actually play the shorter version called 50 Overs. I think there are 3 formats - all day cricket, 50 overs & T20 (which is the shortest version).

Of course, like any other game, the winning team has to score more goals than the other playing team.

Other than that, I just see grown men chasing after a ball like little boys.

So my fellow South Africans, please forgive me...πŸ˜…πŸ˜…πŸ˜…

That cricket no mean anything to me even when I try to understand it... Rugby is more easy and I'm yet to learn all about it. Maybe cos African teams (Nigeria) don't partake in it that's why.

Rugby Yes!
Because of it's similarity to American football.

Cricket on the other hand...
Despite my loads of Indian and Pakistani friends who literally live and breathe Cricket, for some odd reason I just can't get the concept of Cricket, even though I have been told it's baseball in a different way.
