Cricket
Some believe it started in Saxon or Norman times but this hasn't been proven. It is believed that cricket was as a children's game for many
generations before it was taken up by
adults around the 17th century.The first time cricket was definitely talked about was in 1598 in a court
case.
The first ever international game was held in 1844 between the USA
and Canada in New York.
Nowadays there is over 50 countries playing cricket professionaly and is a very popular sport to play.
Personally i do not like the game cause of the length of it. But lots of people think differently.
