Americans think cricket is complicated and then go out and play football using their hands.
The real reason is actually negative press.
Most Americans avoid things which look complicated on the surface but are actually easy to follow
😂😂😂
LoL
It's called football because the ball they play with is 1 foot long and yeah it still sounds like a lame reason to call it football.
Indians came here just to verify if they explained it right.
Ya 🤣
Lol 😂

This is by far the best way to put it. Its ironic!

Cricket isn't that complicated. It's just a nightmare to explain verbally only. You need to watch a game and run through it.
I stayed with an American in Minnesota once. He'd spent some time in Australia working for Ford. The house there backed onto a cricket pitch. He said he spent long periods watching mostly not much happening and then suddenly there'd be a flurry of activity and a load of shouting and he couldn't work out what had happened. Watching was not enough for him.
@@exessex3522 Of course. That's why you need to watch a game AND run through it.
Like our American Football! I didn't get it until I played it and watched with friends.
As an American who lived in England for a while, it took me 2 hours and a good friend watching the World Cup and I knew what was happening. Being a big fan of baseball, while they are obviously very different I loved watching it with him and having an English parent (who only loves football) I loved rooting for England. It’s really not that hard to understand if with a good friend and watching it.

And then comes gully cricket. One drop one hand is out.

I am learning baseball but still couldn't figure it out what's happening 😅
@@mr.scientist1469 basically you hit a ball and run to the base and stay there until someone else hits it watch a baseball game explaining thing u got this
@@mr.scientist1469 I am a huge baseball fan currently learning about cricket so we’re probably feeling the same way 😂 It seems like they are based around similar basic principles, however they are organized differently.
Baseball and cricket are quite different, however more similar to each other than to other sports from what I can tell. At the very least, they both have a player throwing a ball to a batter, who tries to hit it hard and accurately. They both give points to the batting team for hitting it outside of the field (pitch). In both sports, the batter is “out” if the opposing teams player catches the ball, and it becomes the next batters turn.
The wickets always confused me, but I think it is pretty much the same idea as in baseball - the batting player must get to their destination (wicket or base) before the ball does or they are out, in short.
I’m from the u.s., and after watching a few videos on cricket I already understand it better than I do American football because of the similarities!
This is by far my longest comment ever, I just am fascinated by cricket and enjoy someone in the same boat as me but with baseball. Let me know if anything I said was incorrect!
@@MrAwesomeSaucem Yeah bro you have a good understanding of cricket. One of the goals of batsman in cricket is to save the wickets by using bat, they can't use there body which is similar to three strikes in baseball I guess. I am too learning baseball ,I understood it at a basic level but still I have to learn a lot. I watch MLB highlights to get a better understanding of baseball.
Currently I am busy otherwise I would have understood this game I think😅 .

Cricket isn't that complicated. It's insufferable how it's marketed like it is a game of bridge. If I, an Australian, can learn the infield fly rule in Baseball and the baulk, an american can learn the LBW Law. Both sports are great games.
@Samuel Sisti cricket is ot as simple & quantifiable as americna sports thats why america rejected it . Though with T20 they are tried to simplify & quantify it like other popular sports but it will take some time .

@Tams80 read again .
@@Q_QQ_Q America didnt reject it because it wasnt simple. They rejected it because it was british and they didnt want anything to do with the colonizers. This video mentions it too
@S M they never banned it . cricket is the first game which started betting business in america but it was 6 - 10 days long which could not produce result & business so they created baseball & basketball cuz they are heavily quantized for betting with proper result in short time . Beside new yorkers or americans were mostly also british at that time . just because netflix doesnt know this , doesnt mean it didnt happen .

I love the fact Cricket is so alive in India. It has turned the sport into a way more exciting sport. It’s now getting slowly popular again in the UK something I thought would never happen. It’s good to have a sport where America isn’t all that dominant and allows smaller countries like England, the West Indies and Australia have some glory and let countries like India, Pakistan and Bangladesh which don’t normally bother all that much with the olympics be world leaders in the sport.
Cricket Is getting popular in UK because of WC win and Stokes heroics in Ashes..! And for the same reason I supported England in WC Final..And I screamed like hell when Eng Won and I'm an Indian..! Cricket is A religion in India even if other sports are growing now..But Cricket is more popular than ever..The Series Win in Aus Generated a lot of Interest towards Test Cricket among Indian Youth..!
🏏 The Greatest Sport ❤️
honestly I'd like it if America took more interest in the sport and trained their team to take part in the world cup. the existing teams have gotten a little too comfortable and the BCCI holds too much power, you need someone to balance it out
But India, Australia and England are the top 3 most powerful (be it regarding the quality of playing or administrative power) teams in world cricket.
population bro population...
Errr but cricket has always been fairly popular in the UK, America is not dominant at any internationally played sports and India don't bother with the Olympics because they are shit at everything but cricket.
I'm so proud to come from the country that invented cricket. The UK really created a global spectacle with the game. But if it weren't for India, Pakistan, Australia, New Zealand, South Africa and the West Indies, the sport's importance would be majorly diminished. Thank you England and thank you World!
Sad thing is Wales hasnt got its international cricket team, Scotland aren't test playing nation and Ireland aren't playing enough test.
So it is not UK only England

@@JoyjeetKanungo Up until Kerry Packer and World Series Cricket one day cricket were just mini test matches. Played in white clothes and during the day. Australia also brought about a lot of the rule changes like the white circle and fielding restrictions.
Packer changed cricket. And for a long time Australia was the driving and developing force of cricket. On and off the field.
Technical changes like stump mics, stump cam, hot spot, snicko etc all came from innovations Australian cricket and TV brought.

You can't deny that from the late 70s into the 90s Australia was the economic driving force of cricket and pioneered most things on and off the field during this period.
Day/night cricket might have been adopted from baseball but it was EXTREMELY controversial at the time and quite difficult to do. The whole of the World Series Cricket was. I suggest you read about that.
@@analcommando1124 But what has the stumpcam added to the game?? And I'm talking about the game in its 3 versions.

But I wouldn't say that 50 over cricket wouldn't have survived if some bloke wouldn't have imagined to fit a Japanese cam in the stumps in 90-91 B&H trophy.
Oh BTW, the first stump camera was installed by the BBC in the early 1990s. It placed a Hitachi KP-D8s camera in the middle stump. This was a colour camera that used a 410,000 pixel CCD with micro lenses, and offered a horizontal resolution of 470 TV lines.

Cricket might be a sport for other countries but it is passion , obsession and an emotion for Indians .
I'm a rare American (not the child of immigrants) who enjoys cricket (have watched for a decade, and even got to play a little when I spent a summer in England), but I still don't know half the fielding positions and what all the different types of spin bowling are (like what exactly a googly is).
So googly is a variation for a leg spinner
So conventionally a leg spinner moves a ball from right to left after pitching(bouncing before reaching the batsman) but a googly is ball from a leg spinner that moves left to right
most of us don't know the names of the fielding positions.
As a Canadian who's never watched, this is a great explanation.
Fun fact, the first international sporting match ever, was played between Canada and the United States in cricket in 1844!

@@qir23 both of you are wrong it's Lewis
@@qir23 your dum@ss came and explained it wrong
Second most popular sport in the world... watch the short format of the game and it’s ten times more exiting than baseball.
A Cricket game can be played a five day format, a one day format and a 3-hour format
The West Indies is NOT country. It is a private cricket board that represents a group Caribbean countries and a South Americans team called Guyana. People who represent the west indies team are called Caribbeaners and Guyanese
If you know Shane Dorwhich, he’s a cricketeer for the West Indies. He’s also my cousin.
Wow!! Man!!!
What happened to him now
Really
Who else is here because they are afraid of getting neglected by the friend group due to lack of knowledge on cricket😭
Netflix: we will explain cricket
Indian kids: hold my Britannia biscuit,bat & cosco ball 😎
Britannia biscuit? What on earth are those lol
@@jamiengo2343 The "biscuits" made by a company named Britannia. I think they used to make them about a decade ago, now their primary business has shifted to bun-shaped cream-less cupcakes.
[biscuits actually refer to cookies as you might call it, but honestly the term "biscuit" just hits better]
@@manswind3417 best explanation bro but.... Biscuit v/s Cookie!! there u have it
@@jamiengo2343 it is an Indian biscuit company named after Britain 🤣
question: so how did this confusing British game, become one of the most popular sports on earth?
answer: British colonialism.
It's popular population wise, not country wise. No one in South/ North America( except very few who are mostly south Asians etc), middle and North Africa, Europe except the UK, other parts of Asia know about cricket. 1.2 billion, that's a lot of people. So that's how it's the second most watched sport.
@@naraendrareddy273 except west Europe football is nothing.
But not now
IPL is now more valued than whole Pakistan stock market.
Pakistan stock market value 75billion ipl value 6 billion you stupid rndans naver forget your father Pakistan bring in everything iqnorent s use Google stupid
why are you indians so obsessed with us han? tum logo ki behan bhaga k le aaya hai kya? i think you guys wont even sleep or eat without taking pakistan name
Size of the corruption in IPL is bigger than the GDP of many small countries.

the title shouldn't be cricket explained. It should be how cricket moved to India?
I am 23. When T20 was introduced I was 9 years old and just fell in love with it. But since 2-3 years back I am done with T20. Test cricket is king. Label me old school but I love test cricket. Every session has its own story.
T20s are short and good but if you have the time nothing better than test cricket
I think it's the story of every cricket fan
Yep. Test cricket will always be the best. See how the grounds get packed out in England for test matches to see how much we love test cricket here. Sure we like ODIs as well but a good test match will always be more interesting imo.
Fast food is all well and good but quickly forgotten. Test cricket is like a Michelin star meal. Take your time, enjoy it and remember it.
While T20 is a foreplay the actual game is test cricket! I agree with you.. and the presenter T20 is for younger kids but when you grow you realise it’s all about test and one days
Ireland is unusual in cricket terms in that the game almost died out yet it has had a huge resurgence since 2007 .Still along way from being among the major sports in the country
For those who don't know anything about cricket
5:01 : He is Brain Lara, prince of cricket
8:18 : Sachin Tendulkar, God of cricket
Bruh , Brian Lara is the Prince of cricket
And Virat is the King of Cricket
@@Amitabhlifts7 babar?
You Indians claim anything for everything, Sachin is nothing compared to The prince, just like how Bumrah doesn’t compare with Shoaib Akhtar, Brett lee or McGrath
@@agentfries1560 i guess we've got a kid here who wants to deny the facts 😂🤣....
Lol not even mention of 5 time world champion Australia, totally biased cricket video .
True
It's Netflix, the vangard of wokeness and anti-white male sentiment.
They could have included Kerry Packer's role in creating the ODI 'Tamasha' who was the first to exploit the power of television. It diluted the power of boards and paved the way for better wages for cricketers. Also missing were Don Bradman years, Post WWII ashes tours, Australian dominance of Cricket after West Indies faded out etc. Though can't fault them much as it takes lot of money and resources to make an insightful documentary.
If you vomit every single rule of any game at once , it is bound to be complicated. Just watch one or two games , you will understand everything
as an american I had no idea how cricket worked but after seeing this im gonna start to follow the sport a bit and see if i can understand it better and maybe even watch some games
Please follow Cricket for Americans TH-cam channel
Are you watching and understanding the game? 🤔
Yes, tell us.
Canada have just qualified for the T20 World Cup 2024 hosted by the USA and West Indies. USA is automatically qualified as host. Hope you will be there to watch and support your country.
This is not about world cricket, Indian Cricket 😂
This is mostly the basic rules, about Indian cricket and IPL.
No explanation of how test status, international divisions and leagues work?
No explanation or mention of lesser cricket countries and the world league?
No mention of existing Test cricket culture in other countries (e.g. the Ashes)?
No mention (at all) of women’s cricket?
If test crickets is dying out, then why did the World Test Championship begin for the first time LAST YEAR!
This video is entirely bias towards celebrating the IPL which (while popular) is not a good explanation of cricket as a whole
Indian views. And IPL is more famous so
This was about the politics and economics of cricket and how it became commercial over the years.
Dr. Heinz Doofenshmirtz is IPL more famous?
DSQueenie it’s the most popular and spends the most money on players, so it makes sense to highlight it.
But I was disappointed that many other aspects of cricket were ignored and that the video instead heavily focused on the Indian view of cricket and the commercial side of the IPL.
The video explains cricket culture in India, but definitely not cricket as a whole
@@haynick8887 India always gets whatever they want but becuase of this attitude they have been choling for the last 7 years
Now a day's cricket is nothing without Pakistan and India
Love to watch when they play.
Indeed. The tension, the rivalry, the pressure, the crowd, it just all adds to the spirit of the game. Ind vs pak is the most enjoyable match imo.
@@RayyanAshraf that's why we need more matches
things have changed.. its ind and australia now..
@@Subhrajitbhattacherjee no it's not
@@saurabhmishra2363 if u watch all cricket u would not have said that
Cricket deserves much more attention worldwide... It is one of the most entertaining game if not the most.
11:25 “T20 is an English invention” well yeah, isn’t cricket also?…
I know this was an attempt to be clever but it's obvious what he meant in context
I am damn sure India vs Pakistan matches alone attracted half of the cricket fans worldwide towards this beautiful Game.
Yes brohh 💯💚پاکستان زندہ باد 🇵🇰
I dont think so. Literally no one here in England watches india Pakistan matches. We only care about England matches... especially England vs Australia. The ashes will always be the biggest thing in cricket. Bigger than the WC even. Nothing matters more to English cricket fans than the ashes. Plus English cricket grounds get filled out far more for test matches than indian ones.
@@mrdarren1045that's right this indian pakistan matches only hype medias and this two country peoples.but some peoples and medias this fake rivalry spared to little bit with other neighbor countrys.real truth is this but they think always this is a greatest rivalry in cricket world 😂 🤦🤷♀️
@@mrdarren1045 agreed. Ashes is more entertaining than Ind Pak. Heck even Border Gavaskar trophy is more entertaining than Ind Pak.
It's a shame that this documentary completely missing on how Sri Lanka helped to change the cause of cricket. Especially in 1996. Not just winning the world cup but changing the enter game how it is played.
In Asia no one can forget Sri Lanka .😅 Sri Lanka is our brother and has one of the best team in the world no one can deny that .
How to make Americans understand Cricket
Me : show them shane warns spin and Glen macrath , lee , Anderson bowling and Sachin and Lara's batting if they don't find this beautiful they have no soul.
Its better to show they gayle lynn and russell batting instead.... i love lara and sachin but unless they see something glamorous like hard hitting sixes they wont be impressed
Are you seriously thinking Americans love classic play,LMAO
They are more into glamour and flamboyance,
Let them watch T20 it could do the job,It contains all the elements to attract Americans
@@adhyadeshdahal7 In American baseball the game goes as long as it needs to as well, there are no ties. And beautiful batting? In baseball you don't get anything for hitting the ball backwards, you have to hit it through the defense or over the wall. I'm keen on watching a cricket match some day but it's hard to stomach the condescending tone fans show towards Americans.
Thank you for this explanation! I'm an American and I've always wanted to understand cricket. Growing up, I had Fox Soccer Channel so one show we got was Sky Sports News. I loved watching highlights of cricket and rugby and seeing how hype everyone got even though I had no idea what was going on. Now I finally understand it lol. I'm gonna start watching it now.
Enjoy family 💪
How is it going brother ?
Dear Americans simply watch Lagaan-once upon a time in india
It's a made up story. Learn your history
@@alokbaluni8760 mujhe bhi pata hai bhi voh to meinj to cricket ki baat kar rhaa huun
Yes
Why are there people who clearly already know how to play cricket watching this? Well other than to comment stuff nobody asked
Cricket is an Indian game invented in England!
Invented in British india not in England
Need to change the title it should be Indian cricket. How they forgot other best teams
They didn't explain cricket. They just told history of cricket over a timeline of 100 years.
It's kind of absurd not showing Sri Lanka lifting the 1996 World Cup which was such a pivotal moment in the evolution of cricket.
mihir shah During that era, Sri Lanka simply changed how Cricket is played in the shorter version by explosive hitting. The opening pair Jayasuriya and Kaluwitharana implemented it very well during the 1996 World Cup campaign!
Buddy, this documentary was made by Indians to show their country cricket and bring some money from none cricket playing countries. so obviously they will not show any detail about any other that's why it shows IND vs AUS match with mentioning 1996 world cup. This is their investment to develop their cricket and bring some money. When do I say MONEY, you know which money I meant right?
I wish ICC does something about the current no. of teams. I am getting bored of seeing the same teams and players playing over and over for years. They should focus on bringing out more teams from LatAm and Africa. I am not sure if it will grow in the Europe with a proper team, not the indians, pakistanis, bangladeshis or sri lankans who went to europe for studies and jobs and are into the official teams.
Ireland was trying to improve but the ICC kept pushing us back. Also England can steal our best players as we are consideres a county of england in cricketing terms giving them a unfair advantage. Zimbabwe and Afghanistan are also on the fringes and could improve with a little investment.
Watch patriot act on cricket corruption.
@@owenthornhill9671 Its unfortunate. But you'll have to take the West Indies, India, Sri Lanka, Pakistan route and win a major ICC tournament to become a viable cricket nation.
@@premroxx easier for Pakistan or India with hundreds of millions and over a billion 8respectively and it being the first sport, not the 5th or 6th favorite sport
@@owenthornhill9671 It became so because of the WC win. But yes I agree population does help in that regard
1st two World Cup is not 50 over's it's 60 over's
No mention of Don Bradman or recent World cups or even recent test teams and their exlpoits. Could have thrown in 100 centuries of Sachin Tendulkar

As an Indian, I am here only to validate whether they have explained it correctly. I would say well done :-)
When I used play at my home if you hit over the boundary (wall) you are out 😂
😁
me too😅
and pay for the ball too😿😿

i have broken fridge,mirrors, watches, sink ,eyes ,my balls ,others balls 😂😂😈😈😈
As an American I'm watching a match taking place in India at 6 am local time. The speed of the game is impressive, the athleticism required is similar to baseball. Cheers mates for the good show!
Which Match was that?
India vs Pakistan methinks
@@ernstthalmann4306it was popular rivalry
wow. reaction channels are gonna watch this now
Soaking up all that gora validation
Do you ask a child why he/she likes to show toys to other kids when they come for a visit? It's probably some petty psychological satisfaction. May be people who have strong cultural identities but less global recognition tend to do this often.
It does no harm. Leave them alone. Let them concentrate on foreign reaction channels instead of politics and policy making. World would be better off that way.
