When it comes sports that people dislike so much from this part of the world cricket is definitely going to take the lead. Right from my childhood till adulthood, I'm yet to come across a cricket fan and that's why will hardly see someone that will stay glued to his TV watching cricket from this kind of society.

I don't know why most of the people I've come across don't understand the game them as they considered it as a kind of boring game unlike football. They don't just like the idea of grown up men on the pitch playing and running in a way they don't understand.

In a country like India and maybe United States, it's a wonder that cricket has a huge fan, and the surprising is that most of these countries where cricket has a huge fan don't usually have interest in football. That's just the irony of life!

According to my little research, cricket is a commonwealth and colonial sport usually placed by colonial masters. It's a complex game that you will need tutoring before you can understand it unlike football that a three year old baby doesn't need tutoring before he can understand the game. I also see cricket as a game that is usually followed by people of at least average intelligence, hence, the position of cricket as one of the most disliked sports from this region. This is the statistics I saw on Nairaland which shows there are several other people like me in this part of the world who also don't understand this game

To me, I won't deny the fact that I also find cricket as a boring game not because it's not a nice game but because I don't get the idea of a player hitting the ball and run away like a thief that has been spotted while another player caps in his hand like a beggar

Cricket is a game that remains a mystery to me till date and that's why some of us prefer to sleep off than stay glued to our TV watching cricket. Maybe when I have the chance to watch a live match of cricket or when I get someone to tutor me about the game play and rules, it's possible I have a change of heart and start watching or placing bet on it. I respect all cricket fans and I respect their interest just like other sports fans. I only see Cricket fans on the internet but not physically and i wish they could tutor me on this game

Now the question is, do you understand cricket as a sport you find difficult to understand or do you find it somewhat boring? Please let me hear your opinions in the comment section
