2. HISTORY OF CRICKET
Cricket grew out of many stick-and-ball games
played in England 500years ago, under a variety of
different rules.
The word ‘bat’ is an old English word that simply
means stick or club.
By the seventeenth century, cricket had evolved
enough to be recognisable as a distinct game.
5. PECULARITIES
One of the peculiarities of cricket is that a test match can
go on for five days and still end in a draw.
No other team sport takes even half as much time to
complete.
A football match is generally over in an hour and a half.
Even baseball completes nine innings in less than half the
time that it takes to play a limited-overs match, the
shortened version of modern cricket
6. Another curious characteristic of cricket is that the
length of the pitch is specified 22 yards but the size
or shape of the ground is not.
7. Grounds can be oval like the Adelaide Oval or nearly
circular, like Chepauk in Chennai. A six at the Melbourne
Cricket Ground needs to clear much more ground than it
does at Feroz Shah Kotla in Delhi.
8. • Cricket was the earliest modern team sport to be codified. The
first written ‘Law of Cricket’ were drawn up in 1744.
They stated, “the principals shall choose from amongst the
gentlemen present two umpires who shall absolutely decide all
disputes.
9. The stumps must be 22 inches high and the bail
across them 6 inches. The ball must be between 5
and 6 ounces, and the two sets of stumps 22 yards
apart”.
10. The world’s first cricket club was formed in Hambledon in
the 1760s and the Marylebone Cricket Club (MCC) was
founded in 1787. The Parsi team was also one of the well
known olden teams.
11. During the 1760s and 1770s it became common to
pitch the ball through the air rather than roll it
along the ground.
12. This change gave bowlers the option of length, deception
through the air, plus increased pace. It also opened new
possibilities for spin and swing. In response, batsmen had
to master timing and shot selection. One immediate result
was the replacement of curved bat with the straight one.
13. The weight of the ball was limited to
between 5 ½ to 5 ¾ , and the width of
the bat to 4 inches.
14. IN 1774, the first leg-before law was published.
Also this time, a third stump became common. By
1780, three days had become the length of a major
match, and this year also saw the creation of the
first six-seam cricket ball.
15. TOOLS OF CRICKET
Cricket’s most important tools are all made of natural,
pre-industrial materials.
The bat is made with leather, twine and cork. Even
today both bat and ball are handmade, not
industrially manufactured.
The material of the bat changed slightly over time.
Once it was cut out of a single piece of wood. Now it
consists of two pieces, the blade which is made out
of the wood of the willow tree and the handle which
is made out of cane.
17. Unlike golf and tennis, cricket has refused to
remake its tools with industrial or man-made
materials: plastic, fibreglass and metal have
been firmly rejected.
The invention of vulcanised rubber led to the
introduction of pads in 1848 and protective
gloves soon afterwards, and the modern game
would be unimaginable without helmets made
out of metal and synthetic lightweight
materials.
18. ORIGIN OF INDIAN CRICKET
The origins of Indian cricket are to be found in
Bombay and the Indian community to start
playing the game was the small community of
Zoroastrians, the Parsis. They came into close
contact with the British because of their
interest in trade and the first Indian
community to westernise.
19. First Cricket Club
The Parsis founded the first Indian cricket club, the Oriental
Cricket Club, in Bombay in 1848. Parsi clubs were funded and
sponsored by Parsi businessmen like the Tatas and the Wadias.
The white cricket elite in India offered no help to the
enthusiastic Parsis. In fact, there was quarrel between the
Bombay Gymkhana, a whites only club, and Parsi cricketers
over the use of public park.
The Parsis complained that the park was left unfit for cricket
because the polo ponies of the Bombay Gymkhana dug up the
surface.
21. When it became clear that the colonial authorities were
prejudiced in favour of their white compatriots, the Parsis
built there own gymkhana to play cricket in.
The rivalry between the Parsis and the Bombay Gymkhana
had a happy ending for these pioneers of Indian cricket.
A Parsi team beat the Bombay Gymkhana at cricket in 1889,
just 4 years after the foundation of the Indian National
Congress in 1885,an organisation that was lucky to have
amongst its early leaders the great Parsi statesman and
intellectual Dadabhai Naoroji.
23. Modern cricket
Modern cricket is dominated by Tests and One-day internationals, played
between national teams. The players who become famous, who live on in the
memories of cricket’s public, are those who have played for their country.
The players Indian fans remember even now are those who were fortunate
enough to play Test cricket. C.K. Nayudu, an outstanding Indian batsman of his
time. Palwankar Baloo, the greatest slow bowler of his time. Sir Donald
Bradman, the best ever batsman in the history of cricket.
24. India’s Entry in the World Test Cricket
India entered the world of Test cricket in 1932, a
decade and a half before it became an independent
nation. This was possible because Test cricket from its
origins in 1877 was organised as a contest between
different parts of the British empire, not sovereign
nations.
The first test was played between England and
Australia when Australia was still a white-settler
colony.
25. Emerging Trends
The changes are: the replacement of the gentlemanly
amateur by the paid professional, the triumph of the
one-day as it overshadowed Test cricket in terms of
popularity, and the remarkable changes in global
commerce and technology.
