- Baseball is king in South Korea - but for a few weeks at least, there’s a new sport in town.
Cricket is being held at the Asian Games in Incheon, and as hosts, the Koreans are putting out a team.
Most of them had never played cricket until a year ago, but their baseball careers have helped them adapt - while their skill with chopsticks has been an unlikely aid to spin bowling.
Paul Rhys reports.
Learning spin from chopsticks is the most creative method to learn something. Best of luck to South Korean cricket.
A good thing indeed.
I can't wait for the WHOLE world to be playing the incredible game that is CRICKET ! 😃❤
♥️♥️♥️♥️✔️✔️✔️🔥🔥🔥
That young man hitting ball there has prove my long held belief that it's a crime to bowl near legs of any Asian. Asian batsmen are so good on anything bowled around their legs.
playing Cricket with Baseball's skill killed Korean team. They lost many wickets because batsmen lift the bat too high like Baseball bat and swing. Cricket batting is not just swinging bat. It requires Swing, knock, long drive, sweap or defensive shot......
+Le NGuyen what is the future for the Korean team now ?. I want to see them in the world cup
Le NGuyen well said bro
Right

The similar way India never played Baseball in professional level. "The Million Dollar Arm" is a different story :)
Black King I never understood one thing, given the wider range of shots needed for batting in Cricket, and that too against so many types of deliveries, why did they not try to find a batsman ( whatever they call it in baseball) from India. It could have saved them a lot of trouble. Visiting one city would have been enough. But then chose find bowlers instead, and the bowling techniques are completely different in these two games
Koreans should hire a good coach from Test playing nations. Most preferably from India, Australia, England, South Africa or Pakistan. Cricket is a beautiful game and I want to see South Korea playing CWC in next 10-15yrs. Good luck!
Vikas Baruah they have not enough money to hire a coach.
seen creater
If Afghanistan could hire Inzamam, South Korea would have more than enough funds to hire a decent coach. They are just not passionate enough.

Unfortunately, Cricket is one of the most technical and sophisticated game. It begs the necessity to be run like a Gentleman's club. Otherwise, matches would be highly one sided and existing fans would lose interest. It would hurt the game more than it would help. Have you seen matches of Zimbabwe vs the likes of Australia, India and South Africa? Zimbabwe rarely puts up a wining fight. Some people don't even bother to tune in. It's the same case for the other nations you specified. Well, at least be glad Ireland and Afghanistan were given Test status. When countries fulfill the necessary stipulations and show some results, ICC will definitely reward them.

Don't compare football with cricket. Like I already said, cricket is one of the most technical and sophisticated game, that results one sided matches, when there is a difference in experience. It cannot expand as quickly as football did. I agree that the ICC does not have the best management and are definitely not impartial. But it's not the only factor.
Wow same hear
I like to see s Korea, China , Japan will be come strongest competitors in cricket world soon ...
If that happens Cricket may overtake football/soccer in popularity. But probably not. I wish t20 world cup could be at least with 32 teams instead of just 8 or 10 like we currently have.
The Caribbean have the strong players so look out
blasttrash
Yup!👍 agree with u
@@blasttrash you are right definitely cricket will gain global popularity
It's my dream to see a CWC with 32 countries and obviously India winning it. Just huge dream for us that whole world will start playing the sports that we Indians are soo much Passionate about it.
In future this can be possible because cricket is going to be include in olympics 2028 so many countries will take interest in cricket
there is no game that could be played for 5 days...cricket is amazing.
Golf plays four days, baseball players everyday for six months, and playoff series are 7 games.
Not all team can play those 5 day cricket match . For test cricket they have to be top teams.
Good luck, don't make anything let you down , hold your head high and keep moving forward. someday you will be a great cricket team.
good luck south Korea
I love cricket from Pakistan
I want south Korea team qualify for world cup
Koreans are very hard working they will learn cricket in very few time♥️
cricket is a magnificent sports and I am sure with the t20 format in another few years the game will be more popular
Indians really gonna support this team if they ever debuted on international plateform after our national team especially kpop lovers💜💜💜
Let Cricket flourish in Korea.
0:42 the guy ran to the crease was way too much fast 😍
That bowler at the end had good technique, and fielded well on his follow through
Their batting technique is rubbish. No footwork, just slogging across the line. If one of them can play a cover drive I'll be slightly impressed.
You can tell they're used to playing baseball by the way they hold their bat quite high up.
I really appreciate it.
Baseball is more different sport than cricket they just need to organise domestic 4 day Match tournament so that they can perform well is international matches to become best you have to play the hardest format of the game that is test match so that these fresh korean player can handle the pressure after wicket get fall
Why r we even comparing cricket with baseball! Cricket is way more technical and difficult Nd baseball, my friend, is for the burger bellied, fast food butted americans' sport, naturally can't blame them bcz they can't be so technical n skillfull
Abhishek Rocko comparing to it because if you know the true origin of baseball the English created the game.
actually you are the one who is comparing and degrading another sport as well as your nationality. no wonder you are an Indian (you talk like one)
@dropout's production, u also sound like an Indian.
Monkey D. Luffy yes I am
You wanted sound like you weren't from India. And that's a common thing in some Indians. They aren't proud of their country. Truly so.
Good to see More Asian teams coming in cricket.
Amazing!!
Time to switch Cricket in China , Japan , Indonesia , USA , France , Germany
Good luck team Korea... looking forward to watch you guys play against India someday..👍👍

The Gay Version of Baseball
Grand dad of baseball.
really are u that ignorant.In cricket a bowler/pitcher has the right to knock off the batsmen head whereas in baseball the pitcher can throw only where the bat is.Try facing a fast bowler and i bet you will piss your pants becoz u not only have to hit the ball you u have to protect yourself from it.there are no catching gloves in cricket
baseball itself is a whored out version of cricket,read its history.
your baseball have no chance against cricket ..stupid yank
+Professional Pussy Petter hmmm in some West Indies countries, to teach the basics of cricket, children learn a game called rounders. Rounders is very similar to baseball; in fact you could say baseball is a "glorified version of rounders". This is the reason why some people in the West Indies see baseball as a child's game; while cricket is a man's sport.
Praying to Allah God Bhagwan 🙏 ♥️ for the growth of cricket in world 🌎
