Short History Of Cricket

Cricket was started in England, At First Cricket was played with a Long stick and a ball of  Sheep's wool,
According to my research First International Match of Cricket was Recorded in 1646 which was between England and Canada.
At first Test Cricket do not have any Limit,  The longest cricket match took place in 1939 between England and South Africa, after 14 days it ended with a tie.
It will be also Amazed You that  In the 1760’s, pitching a ball through the air was considered normal, thus the bat shape changed from a curve to a straight one.
A cricket game was once stopped because a pig ran across the field. It is even considered legal to suspend the game if an animal entered the field.
