The Cricket World Cup is coming to New York, and the first games are just weeks away from being played on Long Island. CBS New York's Jennifer Bisram takes us inside the new cricket stadium unveiled Wednesday.
The prob is cricket is shrinking to these 2 or 3 countries, vs what it was 20 years ago. Superbowl has expanded in that period as far as diversity of countries.
That smile Ambrose @1:32 gave when he heard being mentioned that India Vs Pakistan is like the superbowl, made my day. He (a true cricket fan), knew it, how underwhelming the statement is.
No you are wrong.. he sarcastically laughed on Cricket... Probably he don't know anything about Cricket... And Also These news anchors also laughed on Cricket at end check it
Honestly this Ind vs pak match should just be boycotted. A country of the nature of pak need not be played. IPL honestly has got more fans than that. Pak can house Dawood and can send those responsible for 26/11 over. Our men are giving it all in the border. And we sit and watch matches with pak. I'd rather watch a game of 2 teams of India playing than ind vs pak. Thank God those players aren't in the IPL.
@@chatcricket1405sit down and calm your farm. India is participating so they can win the world cup, not merely to play against pakistan. It’s not a bilateral series. And your point about IPL makes the whole comment null and void 😂😂😂 looks like your a real fanboy of 60m boundaries and highway pitches 😂😂😂
it's basically score more runs (by hitting boundaries or physically running) than the other side with the same amount of balls bowled. multiple ways to get out but it's not hard to grasp. not exactly rocket science. watching just a few mins you get the idea of it.
@@voongnz it is rocket science for newbies. one can score runs in 5 different ways, one can get out in 5 different ways, a match can have 6 possible outcomes, one can bowl an illegal delivary in 5 different ways,. On top of that the rules that dictate max overs a bowler can bowl, idea of retired hurt, innings, field sets, powerplays, team squad time outs and DRS, all these make cricket extremely complicated game to follow as a new viewer. It is rocket science to understand from a 10 min explainer video.
Most demanding match 1---- INDIA VS PAKISTAN 2----AUSTRALIA VS ENGLAND 3---- BANGLADESH VS SRILANKA 4--- INDIA VS AUSTRALIA 5--- SOUTH AFRICA VS NEDARLAND 6---PAKISTAN VS AFGHANISTAN 7--- IRELAND VS ENGLAND 8-- PAKISTAN VS ZIMBABWE 9-- NEWZEALAND VS WEST INDIES 10--- UGANDA VS PAKISTAN 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Giving my love to Curtly Ambrose, my uncle who was a big fan of West Indies cricket used to remember and recollect his famous quote to a journalist during his playing days: "Curtly talk to no man"
To Americans Cricket has 3 Format witch is played internationaly 1.Test Cricket Longest and Oldest Format of the sport Played for Five Days Both teams wears white color clothes 2.ODI 100 overs game (each team gets 50 overs to bats) After both teams have finished batting team with most runs Win 3.T20 Each team gets 20 overs Rest is similar to ODI Only take 3 hours to finish
As an American i became first hooked to cricket at the 2016 WC held in India..with the tremendous finals match between England vs The West Indies.....once i started understanding the rules of the game i became immediately addicted...now i barely watch any of American sports the big 4 but will watch cricket....whether its the IPL the big Bash league of Australia the Caribbean league and im happy to say the American league MLC etc....And I will always remember that name Carlos Brathwaite!!!
@@prasannaighe5188 I tell people that are new to cricket for their 1st match watch that one and then the last couple overs and the super over in 2019 England vs NZ.....another epic match....fck baseball.....I never thought I be saying that pre 2016 WC
They will mort probably cry, Immigrants came and made Traffic jam. Thats why Indians and pakistanis need to Unite no matter who win or lost. Because these ppl hate both & Act over smart to use against each other.
The cricket which lasts days, is Test Cricket.... it lasts for days, because there is NO LIMIT to the set of six ball lots, called overs, bowled to the batting team.... the bowling team, has to bowl until ALL the Batting sides players, including those not in the side as batters, but bowlers themselves.... have been to the 'mound'...we call the crease, and had their turn 'at bat' and gotten out. Because Cricket is a summer game, and whilst in some countries like Ireland, England and New Zealand, this is logical, and quite a lovely time to play.... it is also played in places exotic and tropical, like the Caribbean, and Sri Lanka... where it is a bit more balmy and hotter.... and places like India, South Africa, Zimbabwe, Australia, Pakistan, and Afghanistan, where it is easily what... 90o in your units... often closer to 100? .... then it is also a serious test of skill, mental strength, and fitness. Games can feel like the most sadistic interval training ever imagined.... lasting eight hours.... then, you go to bed, and have to back up the next day.... for up to five days... with a few days off after those five... then you do it all again, up to five times, so 25 days of such frantic fast/slow/fast....or slow/fast/slow.... gameplay, in a month an half. Also... over the course of that five days, you are likely going to be exposed in part, at least, for some period of play, to wildly different weather conditions, as humidity changes, or it rains, you stop, and go back to wet ground, etc etc. Even just the slightest changes in pressure, temperature, or moisture, can, not always, but can DRAMATICALLY effect how the field responds, the pitch especially, how you bowl, or the ball behaves, and thus, how the batting team bats. By the end of a 5 game series, test matches lasting five days each, you have been exposed to the full gamut of scenarios, or at least a good many of them, which influence and dictate play. Some times you will have to fight, and play like it is THIS kind of Cricket, short form, 20 overs each... T20.... sometimes, you will have to consider playing for the short term, or a draw long term, sometimes you will have to dig in, and play reserved, constrained, opportunistic cricket, of the kind of 'so long and boring and slow and nothing happening' kind (which it actually IS NOT when you KNOW the game) most Americans associate with Cricket.... and this spectrum and possible vastly different passages of play, applies to both bowling and batting. Thus you have to be a team of exceptionally fit, both in terms of sudden explosive power, and strength, AND stamina, and endurance, and mentally tough, as well as in possession of the full range of skills and tricks, for your role in the team, players. You will be facing the same. You will no limits on overs, and you will play hard, or smart, or cunning, or all of those... until both sides have had two innings. You will do that usually for five, sometimes three...(more and more three or less sadly these days.... except for the real big boys of the sport, top end of the full member test nations list) ...days. At the end though, you will have been put to the ultimate TEST of your Cricket skills, and there is no question of who is the better team, at least for that period of time.... there is no getting lucky... even when they end in a draw... or just 'having something extra on the day'... in Test Cricket, no better team on the night, as they say. It is a TRUE TEST. So yeah, that is why those games list so long. But there are THREE forms of Cricket... Long.... Tests.....Medium.... ODI... One Day Internationals... limited to 50 overs, and one innings each... which take about a day... but are often day/night matches, begun in the afternoon and played through to late evening..... and Short form.... T20.. this cricket....where each team has just 20 overs each, and these games last a few hours at most. It is all Cricket... just different Cricket.... T20, you have to abandon all the tactics and tricks and strategy of Test Cricket... and just go hard....which is not always conducive to a great game of Cricket, but is usually exciting.... though sometimes cringey too at moments. ODI's add a balance between both... sometimes, depending on the opening ten overs of the game which dictate the nature of it moving through the rest.... you play more like a Test, sometimes, you have go hard like T20... often times, there's periods of both...and get it wrong... like India in the most recent Cricket World Cup (which is played as ODI cricket, this is the junior to that, really, the T20 WC which is coming to NY), and you fall at the final hurdle. All three formats, offer something, and are kind of extensions of each other. Just pick the one you like. If you do not like Five Day games... watch T20.... tune in to the MLC games.... or get access to the IPL and BBL in India and Australia. Or you can like all of it like most Cricket fans in the big cricketing countries. If Test cricket is not your cup of tea to use an appropriate English idiom, ignore it, and watch the shorter forms .
@@NavyaSagittarius Why you are getting triggered you dear aspiring actress? This way you will never become an actress. Even biharis are more talented in acting than you😂
Why do they have to act clueless? Use this opportunity to learn the basics quickly and show the rest of the country that it's an easy game to pick up. Point out to them that there's a Franchise cricket league in the US called Major League Cricket where athletes earn as much as basketball players per game.
@@harekrishna9941 that's why IPL is the second largest league. And MLB is in fourth come on man . Just look at Soccer it takes 20 years to build it's popularity in US . In Cricket MLC first season was sold out . Cricket was not an Olympic sport that's why Americans don't care. Now cricket is a Olympic sport America will take it as a serious sport. It's popularity starts with the immigrants just like football then spread all over the US. Cricket popularity pace is growing bro not so fast but it's growing all they have to do is marketing properly then it will be a huge success.
The sad thing is they will dismantle the stadium after the Worldcup why can’t we just have it there there are so many of people lives in Newyork, Jersey and Pennsylvania who loved cricket we could have the stadium there
Because it's those same people that you're talking about that want the stadium gone. They build this temporary stadium over parts of the park where a lot of cricket pitches were made for the locals to play and they're not happy that they can't access it for a while.
@@alinaqvi7832 exactly, people will be able to use the ground and pitch freely which is honestly better. Imagine being told that a world class cricket ground and pitch made by the people that manage world class pitches in Australia is available nearby. That'll help promote the sport more than anything.
The stadium looks pretty small tho to be honest, feel like they def could've added a few more stands especially given than ind vs pak is happening there
Cricket had been highly underestimated in USA for years. Infact they felt proud to participate in olympics. But they felt Cricket is below reputation..now they will learn fan power.
I know nothing about cricket but I heard it's huge, it's going to be a massive big boom for sports fans everywhere not only here on Long Island but here in the US Thoughts?
Population of ind, ban, pak is way more than the countries of american and european continents. 3/4 of the people in each country watches cricket thats the reason for it being "huge". This game is not going to get any takers in the U.S....rather i am afraid it will diminish in 5 - 6 years.
Fun fact: The first ever international cricket match was played between USA and Canada. Even founding father's, especially Benjamin Franklin, loved to watch and play cricket. Cricket was very popular in 🇺🇸 till civil war and after that Baseball became popular.
This T20 WC will be exciting and thrilling. 🤩 I will suggest American news media people and anchors to go and watch a game before making a statement that cricket goes for days. Which is the old format. Here it will play in new format which goes for 3 hours. Also I would like to suggest my fellow american people watch joe rogan potcast about cricket. Cricket is much bigger and better than Superbowl.
Cricket is a sport for when golf has become too exciting for you. A handful of countries play each other repeatedly in various formats, trying to compensate for the contrived inadequacies in each. It is far more a pastime than a sport, with only the occasional moment of activity. For the majority of the time, it is simply thirteen objects in white standing in a field, kind of like sheepdog trials when the dog didn't show up. The slightest hint of light rain or even a bit too much cloud, and the players scarper off indoors for a bit more rest from standing around with their hands in their pockets. So often, after five days of tedium, they just call a halt and declare it a draw. Even when there is a result, the deterioration of the pitch over five days means the result is frequently decided by little more than who wins the toss on the first day and gets the best of the conditions. They really ought to stop there and save everyone a lot of boredom.
@@Lalll-qn5fn keep crying, it's the 2nd most popular sport after association football. Australia, England,south Africa,new Zealand, Carrabean countries have tons of fans
The matches the guy was mentioning about goes for days is test cricket. This is t20 World Cup which only takes as long as a regular nba or an American football match
Get on board, America. T20 cricket is the same length as a baseball game. This isn't the version of the game that "goes on for days"; a T20 match is finished inside three hours.
@debameetsaha3906 The highest viewership of Superbowl has been at 123 million viewers. The highest viewership of India vs. Pakistan match was at 324 million viewers. And that wasn't even a world cup match!
Lol Sir Curtley Ambrose on CBS New York, great to see the game finally trying to go GLOBAL! ICC has long tried and continued to keep cricket enclosed to a few big named teams. India vs Pakistan in New York is definitely gonna have the locals in the area wondering wtf is going on why so much traffic and noise is happening 😂
@@aryanjason232 karikket is watched by people from 3rd world countried and they take tickets of 500rs each lol whereas a football season ticket would cost you 2000 euros. Only uneducated people watch karikket real men watch football
Bro, I heard one ticket at the cricket stadium in New York is being sold for as much as $20,000. Does the Super Bowl make the same amount of money? just wondering.
I don't know why these American anchors and influencers don't have time to just google that T20 is only a 3 hrs game it doesn't go on for days really fed up of this mixing between test match and t20
Dear America, let cricket be cricket!! Please don't change it's name as per your convenience just because you will be hosting an ICC event for the first time. Not even post tournament!!
The last time India met Pakistan in a T20 World Cup match in Melbourne, that was box office and looking forward to a bigger encounter this time with of course India winning.❤
cricket was always a western sport and invented in a western country. What are you going on about? England and Australia have dominated cricket for over 100 years.
It's good to see cricket world cup is being played in USA. India vs Pakistan is way bigger then super bowl. Consider it eqaul to FiFA world cup final. Hope USA host more cricket in Future. I really want Pakistan to tour USA for bilateral series in Future. USA is ahead in all sports only not in cricket but they are investing heavily so in future who knows USA will a good cricket side also
to all american brother and sisters. there is no way you will get ticket for india vs pakistan with only 35k seats that too researved seats (which is good initiative to promote local cricketers) . so here is list of matches u may get hold and enjoy rivalry. 1. aus vs eng 2. bangladesh vs SL 3. afghan vs pak 4. india vs australia these are some great entertainment options if you miss out india vs pakistan live
