>cricket is objectively the most intellectually demanding sport in the world
not saying you're wrong im just curious in what ways?

Hello Mr Brian Wilson. Like your masterpiece "Smile", a cricket game will take an extended period of time to complete. This means that the game is subject to variables that don't come into effect in any other sport in the world, including but not limited to: >player stamina >ball condition >pitch condition >changing weather and atmospheric conditions
In addition, cricket has significant complexity involved in the mechanics of the game. There are multiple different types of bowlers, each of which has dozens of variations that are used to trick a batsman into making a mistake. This coupled with the extended playing times makes cricket as much of a mental competition as it is a physical one.
Of course I've only scratched the surface of the depth of the game as I only have limited time, but I will be more than happy to answer any of your questions!

Do you have to be so reddity about it? I hope this is a ruse to keep cricket away from ameeicans because you're doing a good job of making it seem like a sport for faggots

Hello friend!
Not only will you find that this statement is wrong, but it's entirely natural for India to be ranked highly. I'm sure you're used to India being terrible at sports, but that's because the entire focus of their 1 billion strong population is on cricket!
Michael Johnson
I knew Australians were top notch shitposters but this is taken to an entirely different level.
This looks like something that would be stickied to r/cricket.

you forgot to mention the legions of insecure, friendless homos who desperately pander to the BSA. Not pointing any fingers here.

Any "sport" India is good at cannot be considered a sport. Shitting in the street is the pinnacle of Indian sporting culture. Oh.......and competive littering.

Mugabe did nothing wrong. He made zimbabwe into a nation of millionaires
Reminder that cricket would be confined to the history books if not for the advent of T20.
Connor Richardson
No, Test Cricket is as popular as ever. It's just that your Nation is shit at it.
John Adams

Joshua Hill
are you saying it was never popular, because I think that's wrong
Anthony Edwards
Cricket is less of a legitimate sport than esports
Hudson Gutierrez
How so Pajeet?
Carter Phillips
Cricket is manly
Parker Jackson
Reminder that if T20 was the original form of the game 140 years ago, Cricket would be played in over 70 countries, be the dominant summer sport in the USA and would be almost as popular as soccer globally.

The pinnacle of American Football is viewed as the ad break. Every rule in the entire game is geared towards maximising the amount of ad breaks that can be attempted within an hour. Its great viewing. What a thrilling sport. Cricket is OK but I can't deal with all that sport. Sometimes several hours can pass without a single break! Can you imagine? I hardly ever get to sit and watch advertisements for eight minutes while commentators frantically create stats to read out in cricket. If cricket wants to compete they need far more of it. Also, there's far too much strategy in cricket. They bowl in too many areas in too many ways and they preplan their intricate game plan for the next four days far too frequently. What cricket needs to do is make the game shorter, so less time is spent actually watching the sport. Did you guys see the latest Broncos vs 49ers game? 15 television breaks to 34! The 49ers had no answer to Bronco's tactics of constantly ending plays to cut to an ad break. Its this level of corporate support that is missing in cricket, where as you rightly point out, its just a bunch of athletic guys playing a sport against eachother for five days. Yawn
