• History of Cricket

http://connect.in.com/history-of-cricket/photo-gallery.html

The exact origins of cricket are unknown, but there are theories, like the word “cricket” may have come from “cric” meaning hooked staffs. The hooked staffs were carried by shepards in grass lands. The grass lands also point to cricket because cricket cannot be played on thick grass, but well shaved grass. If sheep grazed the land then it will be suitable for playing cricket. In 17th century, the game become a sport of gambling, making it illegal and immoral to play cricket on sundays, because sunday was Church day. ( there were two people arrested for playing cricket on sunday.) In 1788 Cricket become respected and a sport with Laws.

TRADITIONAL RIVALRY

http://indiaincricket.wordpress.com/2008/10/06/history-of-indian-cricket/

The rivalry between India and Pakistan is not a new thing, it started when the countries were divided. When there’s a game between India and Pakistan, schools are let off early, offices are closed down, and even the homeless people turn on there radios to watch the game.

Nothing used for the information


FIERCE RIVALRY

a. http://sportsbettinguk.blogspot.com/2010/06/india-vs-pakistan-4th-odi-live.html

The first rivalry match was played in 1952. India did win the first test match at Delhi by an innings and 7 runs. Things heated up when after 5 days the Pakistanis came back strong to beat India. Out of 5 matches of the series, India won 2 and 2 tied, and won the series over Pakistan.



QUOTE

“If ever cricket matches between India and Pakistan can be played without a ring of machine guns and troops to keep the onlookers from rioting, then I feel that the prestige attached to the game is great”. by Wally Hammond

On the day of India vs Pakistan, there is security covering every corn of the stadium. if there was no rivalry then the game match would be great. That’s exactly why the game is so important to both nations

Wally Hammond played for England team, he is the author of book “Cricket my World”



Bridge of Peace

Unity

Caste System

http://www.indiadaily.org/page/13/

ttp://hscnotebook.com/html-it/image-mapping

When the two nations meet for a match, the boarder gate is opened, and children from both sides sing the Indian and Pakistan national anthem together. Prime ministers of both nations come together to watch the game in unity. The barrier of caste system is broken when it comes to cricket selections.

No website or anything used


Quote

There has never been such a team of contrast meeting on the common footing of cricket. The 18 players speak 8 to 10 languages among them; they belong to 4 or 5 different cast system; some may not eat this and some may not eat that; a few are denied smoking by their religious laws…. But these things are all forgotten for the present in the quest for cricketing success”.
