WRITING- ENGLISH SPORTS

Cricket is a sport which has the second largest population in the world. In another words, it means that it is worth thinking about cricket. Now, what cricket is, the history of cricket and cricket will be shown.

  Depending on the format, a game of cricket can last hours, a day, on a case of test cricket up to 5 days. Basic rules called rose do not change in a case of each format. Cricket is the sport that 22 players use a bat and a ball on the grass big field called the “oval”. Cricket is like baseball. Each team takes its turn to bat attempting to score runs, while the other team fields. Each turn is an inning same the baseball. However unlike baseball, generally one team bats once. The aim is getting a lot of points while batting. Over is the same as out in baseball. One team can bat while counting 20 overs.

  The history of cricket began in the 13^th century. Shepherds played as a play at the first time. Cricket became a major sport in Britain in 18^th century and MCC which stands for Marrieborn cricket club made the basic cricket rule. Professional cricket clubs were established. In the 19^th century, cricket spread over the world. Now cricket is played in Australasia, England, New Zealand ,the Indian subcontinent, the West Indies and Southern Africa.

  Cricket is not popular in Japan. I searched the book about cricket written injapanese, but I could not find. I suggest that the association of cricket of Japan would write books and videos in Japanese and in English classes, text book introduce about cricket. Japanese should play cicket.
