I can say that video at start was way wrong about hitting cricket is easy than baseball.no the very player test and cricket player itself was not proper.Bat circumference is not all a tough thing because you expect a full toss bowl only.That too your eyes are fixed on that ball till the contact of bat.while in cricket there are speed variations,pitch variations,air variation, moisture variation,pitcher variation he can bowl from left ,right spin or fast from either side of wickets and it is not that simple in that test of that baseball guy would simply hit that ball he would be easily out at the boundary line as the ball can be bowled from head to toe to any angle and speed and length and line.plius when ball pitches your eyes has to shift the focus from release point to pitch point then from there judge all those factors mentioned above keeping in mind fielders,runs required,wickets in hand.then you select a bloody shot.
Baseball: finding different variations to ball fulltoss.
Cricket: fulltoss is just another variation among others.

For Baseball fans looking to try out cricket - IPL [ Indian Premier League ] plays 3 hour games akin to baseball, and starts this Friday May 23rd.
I mention the IPL, I love watching it (Nick)
Three hours is too long for Americans. We have better things to do.
@@doreybain Isn't an NFL game 3 hours on the broadcast? And an MLB game is ~ 2.5?
Maybe east coast US just has more time?
@@Scholarstorm Yeah but those are interesting games.
Baseball is past time game. Cricket is a lethal sport, need stamina, skill, brain, power.
Endurance and stamina is the key,,test match is the correct way
@@Osman_badrul3482 Baseball players play almost every day. When they aren't playing they are traveling. It's a real grind. Little injuries pile up. You are in a different city every four days.
@@doreybain that's because the tournaments needed to,test match the way of play itself is like I'm said need the endurance,no matter u are pro,or not that's how it's gonna play,even u got test match that is play after a match,but that's didn't matter,the way of play cricket is all day,,don't be looser ok,,
Lethal in respect to the audience. It bores them to death.
@@Osman_badrul3482 Standing around doesn't need that much endurance.
In baseball you get big celebrations for runs because they don't happen often, and outs are just something you expect; in cricket it's the other way round.
The wicket keeper wears gloves (and leg protection) for the same reason as the catcher - he's receiving a *lot* of high-speed balls that would do a lot of damage to his hands.
What often gets missed when comparing the speed of a baseball pitch and a cricket ball being bowled and talking about how long the batter has to react is that a cricket batter has to react to the ball moving off the pitch so doesn't have as long to make the final shot selection as a baseball hitter has to decide whether or not to swing. You also sometimes get people talking about the baseball moving through the air (and let's face it some guy's sliders and sinkers are *nasty*), but a cricket ball will also do that and curve before it hits the pitch and goes off in a different direction. See videos of Jimmy Anderson and Shane Warne for details :)
Great comment, really appreciate your input 🙏🏼
Except in baseball you need clean contact. Cricket rewards fluke contact by having a 360 degree playing field.
@@RyanSheppard-tq4pg it also punishes fluke contact by having multiple fielding positions behind the bat to catch those edges, and a baseball foul tip for a first or second strike is an immediate out in cricket.
Different games, different plusses & minuses.
@UKJesterVids Fouls tips in baseball are a result of the smaller cylindrical bat, they wouldn't exist in the same form if batters used Cricket bats.
Additionally, while the Cricket batsman may seemingly have less time to react because of the bounce, the reality is that they would still have to track the ball from the hand of the bowler, just like a baseball batter would. The bounce also slows the bowl down and narrows its range of (practical/useful) motion by starting the movement of the bowl closer to the batsman.
@@UKJesterVids How is there a foul tip put out, with no foul territory? I think you mean "whiffed" or lightly contacted balls, maybe?
In cricket almost ANY contact will suffice. That's my point. Doesn't matter that fair play areas are protected by defenders, it still rewards unintentional contacts by a way further margin.
There are 11 ways to get out in cricket but 6 of them are quite regular
1 Bowled Out
2 Catch Out
3 Stump Out
4 LBW
5 Run Out
6 Hit wicket
The 4 which are rare are
7 Retired
8 Hit the ball twice
9 Obstructing the field
10 Timed out
The 11th is almost Obsolete
11 Handled the ball (From 2017 it is considered under Obstructing the field)
Cricket is played between 2 international teams or clubs ,
American play baseball against each other and call it world series
The players come from all around the world, despite the teams being US-based (sans the Toronto Blue Jays).
@@HPSmugscraft That doesn't matter. International cricket players play in IPL, and other cricket leagues also. League games are always at a lower level than International games in any sport. There's always the chance that an underdog team can upset the best teams in International games and that makes it more interesting and competitive.
@@guilzd5836 Yeah but cricket is boring.
@@doreybain baseball is worse.
@@guilzd5836 Cricket=zzzzzzzzzzz
It's a dumb comp. Cricket has way more factors about it then hitting a ball. Who's bowling a fast bowler or spinner. What kind of spinner or what kind of fast bowler. Literally every bowled delivery does something different.
Yes, baseball, on the other hand, only hs the factor of hitting the ball, hahahha.
@@RyanSheppard-tq4pg He's never seen a shortstop go deep into the hole, twist his body in the air and throw a perfect strike to the first baseman.
I think it is very juvenile to think that any sport is less than, or better than another. Each sport is different! Yes, there may be similarities, but they really are different. Different goals, different rules, different moves, different tools......you cannot judge them the same. People who think and talk like this are really just being petty and close minded. Lastly, it is ok to like one sport more than another, nothing wrong with that! I have my personal preferences as to what sports I will sit and watch and which ones I won't, but I would never say those that I don't prefer to watch have any less value.
At almost every baseball game a fan in the stands catches a foul ball or home run with one bare hand while holding a beer or baby in the other hand. The exit velocity (speed of ball off bat) of baseballs are significantly faster consistently than cricket balls.
Exit velocity => lunacy
I was 1 seat over from this scenario at the Astros/Rangers playoff game this past year. Minute Maid sent over a liability waiver and release of any claims for the gentleman who caught it. I never knew the MLB did that. I wonder who actually tried to make a General Liability claim for catching a foul ball…
Major League Cricket is a thing in the US. The Texas SuperKings are one team, no joke
I saw some promotional thing on here and it was started by billionaire Indian immigrant tech guys. Immigrants from Cricket playing countries would like it but Americans would be a really hard sale.
We know more about US cricket than most Americans
The US is hosting some of the T20 World Cup this year(?). MLC is a small league that played its first season last year. The first two weeks were held in the DFW area when the temperatures were over 100F (38ishC). Hopefully this year will be in a cooler season. I’ve recently gotten into Cricket and I do like the T20 format. But access to the matches isn’t easy so I don’t get to see much.
Baseball has more fielding excitement. A shortstop going deep in the hole and making a perfect throw to first base is more exciting than a home run.
@@doreybain don’t bother. Cricket fans don’t seem to understand infield play or outfield play. They can only talk about batting and they still fail to grasp the differences. It’s 1 billion Indians and a few Brit’s patting themselves on the back and talking poorly about America all the while forgetting about tiny little cities like Tokyo, Seoul, or Mexico City.
The state of cricket in America is that most people aren't interested in it but it's huge among immigrant populations, mainly from the Indian subcontinent. iirc the new cricket league was formed with partnerships between the wealthier members of those populations and teams from India.
T20 WC is happening in USA this year
Back in the early days of baseball, there were no gloves... and you'd see 10+ errors in a game.. and games where each team scored 15+ runs on a regular basis.
Not to mention all the broken fingers on the players... who played through the injuries!! Imagine trying to catch a ball when you have broken fingers on both hands!! Or trying to hold a bat!
So like cricket.....
@@superstar_h_gamer5211 cricket players wear gloves. Didn't you watch the video?
@@LiveFromThePorcelainPalaceno they don't only Wicket keeper wears the gloves, feilders Don't wear any gloves , listen carefully, for me hitting cricket ball is harder because once it's hit the ground you cannot know which way the ball turns either it bounces , keeps low, spins either way or thrown directly to the body, but baseball throws doesn't bounce so if you can follow the hand you can actually hit easily I tried, we call it Fullthrow
@@naninani1549 so what you're saying is you're an idiot.
Thank you for explaining
@@LiveFromThePorcelainPalaceonly the wicketkeeper
Its all just Regency bias. Im an American and I love baseball its my favorite sport. But I am not gonna rag on cricket. People like what they like
Exactly that, great comment!
Rag on it. It's boring.
Cricket is Far better than baseball.....Once you understand it correctly..you can never ever leave it.....
@@Tamraj.kilvish you couldn’t tell me 4 rules in baseball
Im British know both an baseball is 100x better.
The ball just travels so much faster in every aspect of the game.
@@PapaGirth69420 So?
cricket is 10000x better
@@kingspeechless1607 so it’s better? Duh
@@PapaGirth69420 No it's not. Unlike some here I am not disparaging baseball; I do not believe you promote your own sport by talking down someone else's. I followed baseball in the late 90s and early 2000s but I have played and followed cricket, in lots of ways, for a long, long time and baseball could never replace it, or come close to it, in my estimation.
Another thing I would add regarding the use of gloves in baseball is the different in exit velocity. From what I found online, the average six in cricket is roughly 80mph off the bat, while the average home run in baseball is about 103mph. However, line drives, which are often caught by infielders, are sometimes even faster, reaching over 110mph. These stats were obtained from an Australian website, while the last one is my own personal experience watching baseball.
Even just throws from infielder to infielder can be like 85-90.
@@FTLnovaKid Very true. There was that viral clip last season I believe of Masyn Winn throwing 100mph from shortstop to first.
Average exit velocity obviously will be low as cricket has so many kinds of bowlers including spinners who bowls really slow. Many times in cricket the exist velocity surpasses baseball ones and also cricket is rock solid way harder than a baseball and that's why injuries are very common in cricket and few even died.
@@FTLnovaKidthat does happen in cricket too
@@marveltv9924 Thats not necessarily true. Baseball players routinely hit pitches that come in slow, like curveballs, and hit them over 100mph. Also, it makes sense from a physics standpoint why this is. A cricket bat is much less aerodynamic than a baseball bat and the swing mechanics are different, meaning on average, baseballs are hit harder. I agree that cricket balls are harder, but to say they are "way harder" is ignorant and anyone who has held both would agree with me
Re: gloves - Cricketers throw to the stumps. Baseballers throw to a teammate. Imagine if cricketers had to barehand the direct throw to the wickets and cleanly catch it for a run out? They'd invent gloves rather sharply for fielders - as the wicket keeper already has.
Your comment makes no sense. How come “direct throw” & “cleanly catch” are in the same sentence and also ends with a question mark?
@@AnthonyJonathanYT to clarify: currently cricketers can throw directly to the stumps. Imagine that instead they had to throw to a teammate. Imagine [What would Happen in this situation]?
Exactly. Whenever a cricketer brings up gloves like it's some wimp play or a giant set of crutches, they completely forget about the player to player passing in baseball.
Go stand at first and get some heaters from 3rd and short and see how long your bare handing it.
@@Scholarstorm That basically happens at the bowler’s end during a runout. Cricket practice sessions usually have catch training with both the bat hitting the ball at you as well as a player throwing the ball at you.
So this is not something new.
@@AnthonyJonathanYT Good point!
It doesnt really matter how "hard" or "easy" a skill because either way you have to be better at it than the other people who play the game
Is this actually a question?
I’m 44 and love all sports. Have tried multiple times , but cricket is a no go for most Americans.
People like different things and that’s fine 😊 I prefer baseball too, but I do enjoy the shorter form of cricket
Yup we know that as cricket need brains
Red colour test match cricket ball is laughing at the batsman's funeral 💀
Such a dumb bashing of Cricket!
Cricket is not just about hitting a ball and running...its How you hit the ball! It involves more technical knowledge and body movement
Its like comparing A guy who throws a rock further with A guy who can throw a rock passing through multiple loops hurdles and then landing it and then saying "see the first guy threw the rock further"
This guy has a lot of good points. He was one of the earlier channels that showed me that some Brits actually LIKE baseball LOL. I honestly used to be a 'what the heck is cricket' person, but as a baseball fan, cricket has its glory as well! Besides, comparing apples and oranges well, that's not cricket, that's not cricket at all! LOL
besides, I like it when the stumps and the bales light up when they're struck apart! LOL
As a baseball fan who has spent the majority of my life knowing very little about Cricket I recently decided to learn about the sport that so many people compare to baseball. Growing up I always heard how Baseball and Cricket are “basically the same sport” and I always assumed that was true.
But as the video states, when I learned the rules of Cricket and understood the difference between T20 and Test and what an Over was, I was shocked at how these sports had almost nothing in common. The similarities are, you hit a ball with a bat and you can get out. That’s it. Other than that they’re completely different.
I have grown to like Cricket ok. I don’t see myself ever watching a full game. But I’ll personally never like it more than Baseball, as you guys said, there’s more dynamic game flow in Baseball in terms of scores going back and forth over the 9 innings.
No hate towards Cricket though. It’s a great sport and honestly I wish Baseball and Cricket fans would stop fighting and come together to spread both games across the world more.
If baseball and cricket fans are 'fighting' it is a tiny percentage in my opinion. Videos go out of their way to magnify it to create drama, whereas in reality where does it occur? You might get a bit of banter, but that is normal between different sports fans in my experience. I much prefer cricket, but I followed baseball when it was possible to do so, live on terrestrial Channel 5 television, in Britain and counted myself as a New York Mets fan. I understand cricket much more fully having been involved in just about every aspect of local cricket for decades, but if I visited the States I would certainly wish to take in a game.
There is also a lot of chat online about Rugby (which I love) and American football which is very interesting, but I find far too 'stop - start' for my taste, but, I don't see why people feel they have to promote their own sport by denigrating another. That is just stupid to me!
I think it may just be cricket fans who debate this. As a baseball fan I’ve hardly ever thought about cricket in general never mind which is harder nor have I ever even had a conversation about it.
I think because in Cricket heavy countries (India, Pakistan) its their only real main sport they play and watch. In the US, we’re saturated in sports and kids grow up playing multiple.
if that was really true then I wouldn't have seen people getting upset everytime Jomboy (A TH-camr who covers a ton of American sports) talked about cricket.
@@zawadsadaf9194 alright maybe just me personally then don’t know enough about the sport to comment on it
@@lovesgucci1 it was true a decade or two before in India but now it's it's same as US offcourse cricket still holds the no. 1 place but every other sports too have huge fan bases here and it's growing more very rapidly day by day
The conversation of which one is harder is mostly in comment sections by both fans. For me it's like comparing goku ( cricket) vs one punch man ( baseball) as we have see cricket player pushed to their max every other day but in baseball it's like they have restrictions so currently cricket is harder but don't know if we free baseball players far they can reach.
Another similarity between the sports, and one that I think sets them aside from many other sports. There is no clock. As long as you have at-bats you have a chance.
But cricket, in all it's form does have a clock of sorts. For Test/First class games it's however many days (4 or 5) the game's set for, in shorter forms it's the number of overs (or balls for the Hundred) you get to bat.
Add in the possibility of a draw or tie in the longer forms, and Baseball's the only one that's (almost) clockless [we're not mentioning the pitch clock though :)]
@@UKJesterVids An "over clock" will soon be introduced in some cricket matches.
Cricket is not Just hitting and running 💯 there are lot more in it😬✔️
Cricket is non existent here in the 🇺🇸. There are many famous ‘Cricket Clubs’, but they were founded in the 1800’s and converted to tennis clubs (more efficient use of the area) shortly thereafter after. The only people playing are people (100% immigrants) at parks. I have yet to meet a single American born cricket player. Great video guys. Keep up the good work!
There are cricket clubs and leagues in the States. They are not 'non-existent' (like gods).
Nope. There's even a Compton Cricket Club (or at least there was last I heard).
If the White Sox use those cricket bats they might have a chance to score a couple runs this season.
As an American baseball/softball guy, it seems like cricket players have to be more versatile and adapt to unpredictable plays.
Whereas in baseball, it's more about specializing in your position and playing your role on the team. Different things are expected from different types of players. You're supposed to find which skillset suits you, and maximize on that.
For example, two opposites: a shortstop is often a fast, agile guy who can run and hit for contact. A first baseman, on the other hand, is often a slow-moving power hitter.
Baseball is much harder,MLB teams have big budgets and go all over the world to find players, if cricket players were good they would be signing them up,we would have entire teams made up of cricket players.Also cricket is big around the world because at one time England ruled the world and imposed its sports on other cultures.
A very silly argument. MLB teams go "all over the world" to find players in countries that play baseball, not countries that don't! Why would baseball teams sign up cricketers when cricketers don't have the relevant skills to play baseball? That makes no sense. They may as well sign up tennis players!
@@noelplum99 spot on! Also why wud they care abt picking anyone from countries that don't even give two f*cks to baseball.
you have just confirmed that more shit comes out of your face than your arse.
Sure, America's never invaded anywhere has it?
9:55 caught, bowled, LBW, stumped, hit wicket, run out, timed out, handled the ball, obstructing the field, and hit the ball twice
Who said cricket is played in less country than baseball 🤣🤣
Oh this will rustle up the haters
We are here for it 😂
13:35 Bro really talked about PSL? Eww 🤢🤮
It's not even a comparison..baseball is a thing of it's own..cricket is like a light backyard game that blew up..
Have a baseball player play 10 balls directed on his body at his toes and at his nose and then see if he can even hit a single ball. Hitting pitches away from your body removes all the fear of the ball making a serious injury on your body which may destroy ur career if u aren't in luck. And also have them play on 4th 5th day of a test match where the ball will turn 1 to 2 feet right after pitching 1.5 to 2 meters in front of the striker and it may also bounce twice what u expect after pitching on a crack. Baseball is really simple as ur job is to swing the bat only and even if by mistake 2 or 3 times the bat gets good contact with the ball it will ensure ur team a win. But in cricket it doesn't matter if a batsman hits 5 or 6 sixes he may get out the very next ball and can loose the match u cannot decide the match only bcz of a few shots or pitches. It has more times which means it gives more chances to both sides to make a comeback no matter how ahead or behind they r in the game
guys cricket is coming to america in few months just watch that india vs pakistan match there most awaited match in sports you will find screening on the streets ,hotels , just simply everywhere
Baseball clears in every way except for catching fly balls.
It has more dynamic play due to infield decisions, teammate passing, and strategy. It also rewards clean contact and not just ANY contact due to foul play. While there is skill in placing the ball for batsman, fluke shots are just as good, as in skimmed misses that go behind you.
The chasing of a team down in cricket is also really fun. You don’t actually know who’s ahead until the end of the game.
It doesn't the only thing baseball is little bit better at throwing accurate throws or overall fielding that's it
@priyanshuverma2749 infield decisions making puts dynamics Into the play. Situational awareness is required much more in baseball. The out system of strikes and balls is a lot better as well. Baseball is a far better sport. Most cricket fans overall don't know anything about other sports. They just bleed cricket. I'm betting you're one.
Check out some college baseball highlights ! In the 5th week of the season...
I like the reasoned wrap up at the end that says Cricket and Baseball are two different sports that aren't as fun to watch as hockey.
Little Knowledge is dangerous .. 😂 Baseball is really really not better than Cricket.....

The comments on the original video are mostly mad cricket fans lol
Edit: And now they've infected all of these comments lol. No baseball fans seek out comparison's to try and be superior the way cricket fans seem to do. I have respect for both sports, but so many of you are obsessed with defending the honor of your sport for some reason, demanding we "admit" its superior.. Very few baseball players ever think about cricket. USA, SA, SE Asia, and some of Europe are all baseball playing nations while others are not. Let it be.
Not only mad but absolutely delusional.
They can believe Cricket is the better sport - who is anyone else to say otherwise - but then will say baseball is a dying sport in the next sentence 🤦♀️

Cricket is 100 >>>>> baseball
Naaah, it can be way harder to hit cricket ball and it can be easier too.
The balls delivered in baseball are just straight up considered bad in cricket. If it hasn't bounce, it must go out of the stadium.
Basball players get angry when ball is thrown towards their head. In cricket you target the head and toe regardless that it can injure them.
Speed is not the only issue in cricket.
- The ball could turn either way after bouncing for slower baller. And it can turn miles.
-The ball could swing in air differently when it is new to the way when it is old.
- The ball could swing differently in depending on weather, lights, day and night, lacquer on ball.
- And now the surface on which the ball bounces could be different. The bounce could be till your head and also could be below the knees. It can have cracks, grass, dusty, all kinds of shit.
Or we could just make it easier for batter and see some big hits, that is t20. 😂😂
It's much easier to hit a baseball -- try giving a cricket player a baseball bat and see how much he hits. Or get a baseball player to try playing cricket with a baseball bat. Obviously it's easier if you have a cricket bat, but if you played baseball with a cricket bat you'd be hitting everything (at least once you got used to hitting with the flat of the blade; baseballers often tend to hit with the edge because of the way they hold it). The small bat and faster throwing is to compensate for the increased ease.
Baseball palyed in 100 countries,and criket with 108 associated members lol
Biggest joke
Trying too hard to project personal favourite as a better sport using foolish logic and false data. The only way to find out would be to have a world XI of cricket and world XI of baseball taking on each other in a cricket and a baseball match.
cricket players would destroy them. they will never be able to play world class spinners and fast bowlers. cricketers will adapt easily because for them its like hitting a full toss
Baseball - Raw Power
Cricket - Skill
*The video is self biased to baseball I have been watching baseball vs cricket videos for almost 5 years nowhere they say it's harder to hit cricket ball they say cri ball is way harder than the baseball and still they use gloves why do you use gloves for far located fieldsmen ? Everyone knows it's plain science hitting a baseball is way harder coz area is small and the bat is a cylinder. They inducted c class batter to compare. Baseball players can't do a lot in cricket but cricketere can do a lot in baseball*
I don't know if they included young kids were included such as little league. Australia now has a pro baseball league.
We step on crickets.
Was gonna say, don't they "sing" at night??
Is that a popular pastime in the USA?
I have never seen or heard about cricket being played in America. It’s extremely rare just to hear anyone talk about it
The video you are watching was pretty silly. i recall watching it a year or so ago.
The ridiculous "study" they referenced to show how much easier a cricket ball is to hit involved, as I recall, an ex-professional batter for baseball and what could best be described as an American club cricketer who then proceeded to throw full tosses at the baseball player (who wasn't wearing pads which tells you all you need to know about what he was facing).
They then say a baseball pitcher pitches from closer by comparing the distance from the pitcher to batter in baseball to the distance between stumps in cricket. Not quite sure what form of cricket involves a bowler bowling level with the stumps and a batsman batting likewise! The reality is the distance from popping crease to popping crease (where the bowler bowls from and batsman stands) is almost exactly the same as the baseball distance.
3rd point is wrong. Top level cricket is played by 10 nations but baseball is only 2 USA and Japan. Cricket is also played in nations more than Baseball, in the latest T20Wc look at the nations like Oman, Papu new Guinea etc are participating and this is a sport where nations fight regularly unlike baseball which is only franchise model
Not to sound pompous but as an American I definitely feel we have perfected what makes sports fun. The back and forth systems. I think that's why a lot of world wide sports don't pique my interest. That being said I am not really a fan of Hockey and I would rather watch Soccer. And I'm hoping with the World cup and Olympics coming in a few years that it helps grow in popularity. Maybe get the MLS into the big 4
which big 4 ?
They’re two different sports, and it’s not a competition. I love baseball as much for the history, lore and superstitions, as for the sport itself. It’s a part of my culture as an American. There are so many baseball terms that have just become a part of the general lexicon. And of course, the same would be true for anyone who grew up in a culture that adores cricket. I’m not going to convince anyone who’s been a cricket fan all their life that baseball is a better sport. It’s a part of their culture and who they are. But…baseball is pretty awesome 😂
The explanation of what a baseball pitcher does compared to a bowler is the silliest thing I’ve heard today.....reducing pitching to throwing to a batter in one place while ignoring the precision.....then saying bowlers throw it all over the place....how does that take more talent?
All bowls need to run for 50 meters before sling a delivery,this happens all day as U know batsman is quite easy to hit the ball cause the bat is wider but what to highlight on is bowling is need more endurance and tiring,cricket all round is a game with endurance and stamina more involved couse U can't deny cricket longer time playing,all day long for five days the most prestigious sect test match,the art of finding wicket U know,,running all day long full speed(cause technic)in 50 meters before delivery full unbended elbow delivery,,the art of finding wicket,,fielding all day,,can bat all day,,anyone can be all day movement in cricket,,running before shot
Baseball pitcher just stay put on mound
This is not about talent,this is which is more tiring,,if U got talent U can be great in cricket but more sweating involve because all day long
Baseball for the win.
Solid choice!

the one thing the narrator of this vid seems to be forgetting is that the only cricketers that are actually wearing gloves are the batsmen and wicket keeper, where as the fielders and bowler are not.
Cricket is bigger better generates more money bigger and better fanbase all Americans can do is seethe and cope
Cricket is the top sport in South Asian countries, equally popular with rugby and football in the Pacific. It is also the top sport in Caribbean countries, No. 1 in Guyana, an American country, South Africa, Zimbabwe, Uganda, and growing rapidly in other African countries.
Second popular sport in england, Wales and fairly popular in Scotland, Ireland, neatherland, and is fastest growing sport in Germany and more, cricket is fastest growing sport in Japan, one City in Japan cricket has overtaken baseball and there is No1 sport, that City is Also know as cricket capital and also baseball is no1 sport in Japan so we all have idea which sport is going to rule there also Japan and South Korea are puppet of USA they way cricket is growing in USA cricket is going to become huge in South Korea toooo. 🏏☝🏻
How about we agree that they are both great sports and it takes top talent to play at the highest level. Cause if cricket is much easier, I would suggest some of these baseball player try to get a place in the IPL, they will make millions and vice versa.
Lotta cricket fans with apparent inferiority complexes in these comments, trying to lay out specific reasons they think cricket is better than baseball. You'd think some of these people were told to give a PowerPoint presentation on the topic, based off some of these comments.
I've never liked the whole "my sport is better than your sport, you loser!" argument that so many people seem to get into. It's literally pointless. Cricket and baseball are BOTH amazing sports and both require a tremendous amount of skill and talent to be good at. They're both enjoyable to watch and they both have had incredible moments throughout history. They're both amazing sports, people don't have to get all tribal over one vs the other. If you like cricket and not baseball, great! If you like baseball and not cricket, great! If you like BOTH, great! Just enjoy what you enjoy and let other people enjoy what they enjoy! Not everything needs to be an impassioned debate in the comments section lol.
The Caribbean, South America and East Asia play baseball a ton. Cuba and the Dominican Republic both have some of the best baseball players consistently getting into the MLB.
The caribbean, west indies region do play cricket. I am curious why some carribbean islands play baseball whereas others play cricket
@@zawadsadaf9194 most of the carribbean islands play cricket
@@Sciention21The English-speaking Carribean countries play cricket. The Spanish and Dutch-speaking Carribbean countries play baseball.
@@ashleyrodriguez3825 yeah true. Even guyana is included in west indies.
Not much of a contest as far as im concerned..... Baseball will always be king. Only hockey comes close. Football, auto racing, or wrestling(real) in that order but far behind. Then comes many of the winter oylimpic sports, then traditional summer olympic sports, golf, horse racing, australian rules football, billiards, darts, bowling, bmx and motocross, soccer, and fishing. The rest can disappear tomarrow and i wouldn't notice.
React to Lindor playing with crcketers in london! He teaches them how to hit with power
I love that you guys love Baseball. I watch a lot of sports but baseball is definitely my favorite sport. AND YES! What makes it special is that "It aint over til the fat lady sings."
In cricket players are more athletic than baseball players
The real challenge is hitting against fastpitch softball. Even MLB hitters struggled against USA women's softball pitcher Jenny Finch. That's a good video to watch.
cricket is the world's second most popular sport and it might overtake football in couples of years
You're dreaming. It's second because Inida Pakistan, and Bangladesh play.
Everyone thinks baseball is American only somehow. Well, there are a few little places where baseball is also loved. They are called Tokyo, Seoul, and Mexico City. Dint doubt baseballs populatity.
Cricket will never catch on there in America Canada or Latin America like in the Middle East. To even suggest cricket will surpass world football in popularity is crazy.
@@RyanSheppard-tq4pgchina will also playing cricket 😂 baseball sirf america japan korea khelte he 😂 lolss

@toonheart1991 Okay. Makes nothing what I said untrue.
West indies India Bangladesh and South Africa....name me another sport they play at a world level?
Cricket will never overtake world football. You guys are all bubble livers and are obsessed with one sport.
With the pitch clock... Baseball games are now quite shorter than they were in the past. A T20 (the shortest/most exciting format) is still roughly 4 hours... compared to a 2:30 hour baseball game.
There is no freakin' comparison. You might as well ask.... A Brirtish Battle: Margaret Thatcher or Megan Fox - Which one is Hotter?
I’ll get back to you on that one 😂
Have you Margaret in one of her below the knee frocks?
bedroom or boardroom?
The video showed professional cricketers players playing test and T20 matches and college baseball players. How about showing MLB players.
Cricket is original format is test !
Why DNReacts choose baseball?
1. Player gets to play multiple times.
2. Cricket outcomes are predictable.
Let me explain you with an example
If you consume something that you like very much, but in every day.
It would lose its value, and you would less likely to have it.
But if One player gets only chance to shine, they will give their all. Which is more satisfying and worth looking for.
Secondly, the cricket outcomes are nowadays not easy to predict at all. ( if you are saying you watch IPL and other leagues, you should know)
In cricket, the fun lies not only in the outcome but watching sixes, boundaries & wicket, keeping composed & patient allowing ourselves to get anxious to the point until it happens, etc.
Cricket in America is basically just a sport played and followed by immigrants, generally from the Indian subcontinent and the Caribbean. This is a big, diverse country so thats probably still millions, but its not a big sport here at all. Theres one channel, Willow, that shows games, usually IPL. I wonder how much demand there is, since we already have baseball. Same with rugby and American football. There is already a similar sport here.
A cricket ball loses 10% of it's speed out of the bowler's hand due to air resistance and then loses an additional 30%-40% of it's remaining speed after it bounces and before it reaches the batsman. A baseball loses just that 10% of speed due to air resistance. But as the video mentioned, the baseball is traveling a shorter distance from pitcher to batter than from bowler to batsman.
If you had any knowledge..... You would not have said this
Cricket ball can even become faster after touching the ground
Firstly play it with proper players then see it yourself
That isn't true though. Bowlers don't bowl level with the stumps and the batter doesn't stand at the stumps. The distances from point of delivery to impact on the bat are almost identical.
@@khemeshawana568 A cricket ball cannot become faster after hitting the ground. It can bounce awkwardly and surprise the batter but it cannot become quicker.
Bowl come very fast after hitting the ground and swing in thr air, with less time to judge where will the bowl will go
@@cricketexplained8526 it does become faster my friend
Both are sportotainment ...whichever has aggresive marketing is better😂
He was only talking about batting then what about bowling.Bowling is more difficult than just throwing.he just a baseball fan
He missed the most important thing the legal ball or pitch area. The ball area in cricket is 5 or 6 time bigger than baseball so it's easy to predict the where is ball going to be pitched.
And now British people not looking for cricket because they invented the game and now they are struggling in it😂😂😂
7:15 He definitely went a bit overboard regarding baseball gloves!! 😂
It’s to protect hands/fingers but its also made to help field the ball. If I didn’t know about baseball, I’d probably think the glove was weird too, maybe.
That "Sports Science" thing is complete rubbish, though.
If India starts playing baseball, believe me Americans MLB would be over
Yeah I’m sure transitioning between the 2 sports would be so easy 😂 that’s like saying if the best rugby nation started playing American football. They aren’t the same
Hotty Toddy!
108 countries play cricket currently seriously.
Bro average speed now days 150
the difference is that cricket is not governed by tv adverts like EVERY american sport and was also proved in the balkans when the american forces had to wait until the tv cameras were ready.
Why don't baseball players use gloves in both hands. Why not ensure safety of both hands. Even someone who doesn't play both these sports can also catch a ball without gloves. Having gloves in hands surely makes it easy for players to catch the ball
Cricket 2.5 billions fans
baseball 0.5 billion fans
And yet MLB still makes more money and it's not even close, because no one cares about India and Australia has about 1/10 the population of the US.
2.4 billion of those are in India and Pakistan.
That’s some awful math 😂
This is literally a point that gets debunked in the video haha
@areguapiri Whole India don't play cricket. BTW baseball is a
baseball hace 500 million fan base cricket have 2.5 billion debate over
well it wasn`t even a debate
cricket is miles ahead
@@hardik6918 yes true
Lyn must be an American.. & that pro cricketer was just a sham..
Though Baseball is my favorite sport i love that cricket’s run scoring is on crack in comparison.
They(baseball fans) thought it is about speed but the variation of ball speeds with cricket pitch is much harder to hit than not having to bounce and hit . Baseball hit is more simpler than a cricket hit , the bouncing of ball makes it much harder to hit because it is easier to focus in one morion or straight line than in 3d motion of bouncing and variation of pitch in cricket . ❤️👍
Baseball 😂😂😂
Baseball is Came out from Cricket, The Answer is Hence Proved
Baseball was actually an adaptation of the English game of rounders.
@@DNReacts Rounders came long time after cricket. Rounders surfaced in 1744. Cricket was using concepts of Runs-innings-outs long before that.
Yeah I didn’t mention cricket. I said Baseball was formed from the game of rounders.
@@DNReacts Rounders itself was carrying heavy influences from cricket, it's not that difficult to understand. When Cricket was already a popular adult sport in the British isles (was also famous among gamblers), in 1744 Rounders was introduced as a children's game.
And Yes Baseball probably took its primary influences from rounders. But one cannot deny its cricket connections, The ideas of innings-scoring runs-outs ...are Cricket's original.
Also "The father of Baseball '' Henry Chadwick, an Englishman, was an amateur cricketer and cricket journalist for New York Times in the 1850s.
True
Don't agree with reaction time is cricket is more as in cricket ball bounces also changing direction, bounce, length. Making less time for cricketers to react after bounce taking into consideration all the factors.
